Well, these things all come with a set of manuals when new. I'm surprised that the previous owner didn't include the manuals with a tractor that's only 3 model years old. If it's not feasible to work backwards to the previous owner, clearly the only other option is a Foton dealer. They're sold here in the USA, but it would seem more realistic to get them from a source in your part of the world.

Not sure about your specific model, but most typical is a 4 manual set: tractor operations and maintenance, tractor parts, engine operations and maintenance, engine parts. Not sure about price either, but I'm guessing a set of four might run in the neighborhood of $35 USD.

Yeah, but you can lear a lot faster with a set of manuals. Why don't you just order them from a dealer? It's money well spent, especially for the exploded diagrams in the parts manuals.

In the year since you opened this thread, I actually bought a set for a neighboring FT404 owner. The set of 4 ran about $85USD delivered, and I found them to be far superior to the Jinma set - and well worth the extra money.

Anytime damage or decomposition is noted in a tach sender, it should be replaced. They run about $35-$40USD. Doesn't appear that Josh has a web site, but I found his phone number to be (870) 931-6369
