Manual for John Deere #5 Sickle mower

[pekabu]

I am looking for Parts and User manuals for John Deere #5 sickle bar mower. I found some at SSBTractor.com, but at 53 bucks a pop. I've had good luck with eBay and will continue to watch them, but any other suggestions on where to look? This site John Deere No.5 Mower
has some nice info. The one I have has been converted to a 3pt hitch, and has a 5' blade on it.

Also, I've looked at the JD website and haven't found much on there for parts diagrams and such. It's old, but I was hoping. Did I miss something?

You might try ValuBilt (Valu-Bilt) for older parts and maybe the manauls too.
I think my dad has an old #5 it's the 3PH model made for the JD 40 I think.
