The timing of your message is funny in that I just got back from picking up the exact same chipper you have on the used market. I was searching to figure out how to change the oil, but realized I will have to do a Tecumsah search instead. Don't know the hours on mine, but it seems to be in good shape and the prior owner said he just had the blades sharpened.

Anyway, I got a manual with mine and would be happy to make you a copy and mail it to you. It is about 20 pages. If you want me to mail it to you , just forward a mailing address. I can probably have it in the mail either tomorrow or Monday. Good luck, with yours!
