Just bought a Cat 304C CR and am looking for just the general operator’s manual. Does anyone have one they can share?

G..G..G..Granville.........!! Fetch your cloth.
I don't want to rain on your parade but that's an excerpt of only the safety-related topics from the O&M Manual, not the whole thing. Complete manual is likely 100+ pages.
The manual is Cat Publication SEBU8021 if you want to search for it.
Options - you can download a pdf copy of it from the Cat Publications web site for $49.
Or there is this one (also genuine) on CD for $33 plus S&H. https://www.ebay.com/itm/SEBU8021-C...Operation-Maintenance-Manual-CD-/313138547652

Yeah, I noticed that was just an excerpt of the real thing. I was hoping the PDF was floating around out there on the Internet. Kind of amazing it isn’t.

Not really. If someone else had paid for the manual I can understand why they wouldn't want to share a copy for free. How much diesel for the excavator does $33 buy you.?
