ISO Owners Manuals in PDF form or Paperback

Hello,
New to the site and just acquired a different RV that has no owners manual with it. I bought a 1995 Firan Westhaven. I have done some research and come up with nothing...I am under the assumption Firan was bought out by Forest River the next year, 1996, but they don't have any resources. If anybody has a lead on this it would be great! Have a few things I'd like to fix on the coach. Inbox me with any info!

Thanks,

  • Here is a Ford Chassis Manual for a 1996, which is identical to your 95 chassis.
    It shows maintenance schedules, fuse locations, etc.
    Most of the devices on your coach are generic. IE A/C, furnace, refrigerator, water heater, etc.

  • While it would be nice to have if you can find it, don't lose too much sleep over the lack of an owner's manual. Very often they are generic to the point of being not so useful. It may tell you to, say, drain the water tank by opening the drain valve, but give no hint as to where said valve is located.

    There are exceptions, but they're pretty rare in my (admittedly limited) experience.
  • I wish I could figure out how to post a picture because I think that would be helpful. It's definitely not the first one I've seen. Don't see them often, but they are out there.
  • It is a Class A (35 feet or so) built on a Ford chassis with Ford's big block 460 in it, fuel injected.
  • a google search for that one only comes up with ones for sale and some company history no manuals. go around the rv and write down brands and model numbers of all appliances with a google search you should be able to come up with manuals for each one. find out what chassis it is built on ford,Chevrolet,etc. and you can come up with manuals for it. most rv manuals were not that good anyway just general rv use guidelines.
