Perkins 499, 4107 and 4108 manuals

[silverseal]

A 30 mb pdf file contains the above technical manuals at:-

FTP://stewartbray:yottie@users.firenet.uk.com.

yottie is the password, if the above does not work - I cannot get it to work with Mozilla as the moment

No doesn't happen for me either. We have put a lot of effort to try to make this available, especially Stewart & co so will try to contact him and let him know it can't be found.

Apologies Roy ...... with all the drinking and fun over xmas etc. - never finished the manuals project ......... I'll get working on it and post on my site for download .....

Lot of people nowadays have trouble with FTP - especially when using browsers ........ better to use a proper FTP program like AceFTP, WSFTPLite etc. Then you get resume, pause, back-up, replace etc. etc.
An even better way is to make a hyperlink on a web-site to download from ....

Hello Nigel nice to hear from you. A Very Happy and Prosperous New Year to you.
Also very pleased to hear you treated the festivities in the manner they deserve.
Once the headache wears off and focus returns to normal I would be only too please to proof the manual for you against the original if you want to send me a copy before publishing.

I have tested this link and it works on Outlook Express and three different machines two broadband and one dialup have accessed the files in the last hour.
I cannot get Mozilla Firefox to access it, and this is because their ftp rules are different..
Could interested parties please pm me, as I am at a loss as to why some people can access the site and others cant. Unfortunately the file is 33 mb, so I cannot email to interested parties. However I am going to get to the bottom of this..
I am off now to construct a half size model of the Gosport ferry in mdf.

Try also this site for scanned copies of engine manuals :-
http://motoren.ath.cx

it, the site, is in four languages so should cover most readers.

Yes I could download it from there, I left the machine for a 7/8minutes (broadband), thank you very much!

BTW, in the copy I downloaded, Sections L, M and Q of the manual appear to be missing...

any chance of having them too available ?

thanks again
