Incredible.. I was literally yesterday looking for a manual for my 80's boat motor of unknown model. A quick lookup and visual approximation allowed me to match the model on the manufacturer's site and download the series user's manual from here.
The PDF has been OCR scanned and allows searching. This is way easier than ordering the manual from a reseller. Copy to cloud, and now I have online copy of the manual always in my pocket..
I understand it is copyright infringement, but still super-useful. And I might still order a physical copy if the digital copy proves helpful.
- kpxxx3 9y agoLol god fuck copyright infringement. What idiot company in their right mind would pursue that? Manuals are a cost sink and a resource like this is simply a cost saver for them. It improves customer goodwill if manuals are accessible by any means. Unlike trademarks and patents there is no detriment to them if they don't enforce.
