This's a little late, and I don't know if you're still getting replies, but---as a long -time old paper collector, when you're looking for something particular, you have to be persistent: don't just post your want on a site once; post it every so often-how often depends on how active the site is-because not everyone who follows a site sees every post;...it also sometimes helps to make your appeal a little personal "My frammis is out of whack; I really need a manual to get this going again" (people will do more to help someone broken down rather than someone just filling out their library)...you can post a want on lots of sites, incl EBay...state as specifically as possible the piece of eqpmt, and appeal to readers to ask anyone they know who has one if they have a manual, and it never hurts to state you'd be happy to pay for copying/mailing and maybe a case of beer if someone had one that they could copy for you; ask if you can leave your want with people who deal in or are exposed to old manuals (but be sure to keep a list, so when one turns up you can cancel with the rest). My apologies if you've done/are doing all these things now. Good luck.
OOPS: check with dealers/owners of similar eqpmt; sometimes a later or larger unit will be enough like yours at least some info will match (sometimes better than nothing).
