Looking for Owners Manual

I just bought a 2003 W255 Frontier Plainsman which was made by Peak Manufacturing (which is now out of business). Unfortunatly the previous owners had no owners manual and I was hoping on obtaining one. Does anyone know where I could find a copy?

Thank you kindly as this is the first 5th wheel, we have owned.

    MFG.owners manuals are VERY generic and are a limited source of info

    BEST method........inventory ALL your appliances, equipment (converter, landing gear, fridge, furnace, water heater, A/C Unit-t-stat etc.)

    Brand/Model number then Goggle for service manual. Print them out, place in 3 ring binder---now you have manuals specific to the components on your 5vr

    Check with the RV HALL OF FAME and MH MUSEUM. They have an extensive library and may have one that they could copy. Of course you would be paying the copy and mailing costs.

    My owners manual (weekend Warrior) was available on line and pretty much worthless. I have gained so much knowledge by researching the individual components, as Old-Biscuit suggested. Life is great with internet access. It was much harder to research product information 30 years ago.
