Austin western manual-where?

[Diesel_Gypsy]

My computer crashed taking all my files with it.
So I was looking to replace some of the TM's I had and I can't find the Austin Western
Crane manual anywhere.
Looking for the one covering M246/M819 wrecker cranes
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

We didn't have a specific one for those. The actual Austin Western manual we have covered the M108 and the M62 if memory serves correctly.

 

[Diesel_Gypsy]

I believe the M62 is the same. The extra extension and of course the chart are the only differences I know of.
But I can't find it. The only reference I have found refers to the old site and it must be dead now.
Can't find it on here. (Basically computer challenged)
Help please?

Somebody walked away with the only known hardcopy of that, at the ga rally. Ron maybe.

I had it in my hands at one point!

What a pristine scan. Whoever did it was an awesome person.

Much appreciated.

Too bad he didn't sign it.

You couldn't read my writing anyway...

The boom and mast ARE different from a m62 and a 246/819, the 246/819 mast is taller, the boom is a bit heavier, the 246/819 boom WILL mount in/on a m62 mast.

Before I get grief from anyone, I have a m62 AND a m819 in my driveway.

 

[vtdeucedriver]

I have a hard copy of the m-62 Austin western manual.

 

[Recovry4x4]

Well, thats 2 copys Jeff.

 

[vtdeucedriver]

Well, thats 2 copys Jeff.

Where this manual is priceless is the factory parts drawings in the back that list the AW part numbers

 

[vtdeucedriver]

Well, thats 2 copys Jeff.

What I would really like to know is how many have the TM for the wrecker crane and systems manual??? This is information that is not in the Truck Chassis TM

 

[Recovry4x4]

I had the one for the M108. TM9-8023-5. Junkyard wars crusher now owns it. It too is priceless.

 

[gimpyrobb]

If Crusher has it, I bet he can scan it and put it on SS for everyone...

If anybody is looking for tm 9-8029-3 for the m62 and the m246 (same as the m819), this is the one Jeff has, get and download tm 9-2320-211-35, this SUPERSEDES tm 9-8029-3 and has EVERYTHING 8092-3 has. It is all towards the end of the tm. I spent most of the morning looking for tm 9-8029-3, everything referred to tm 9-2320-211-35, it still would be nice to find a tm 9-8029-

tm 9-2320-211-35 also has a nice m543 section after the m62 and the m246 sections.

Isn't the swing motor different on the M819/M246? M108/M60 use a goofy timed twin cylinders to spin a pinion, Not sure what M62's have.
