New Surf Side owner looking for owner's manual

I have just purchased a 1972 Triple E Surf Side, and REALLY would like an owner's manual in order to learn to light the furnace, fix the louvre window mechanism, etc. Would anyone out there be able to help me find a manual? Much appreciated!

i had my furnace checked out by our local rv place when we bought it
The propane lines needed work and one was hammered flat by rocks where it goes under the body. the line that went to the fridge also had been repaired by the previous owner using lots of teflon tape which i understand is a no no for propane.

anyway glad i had it checked out and repaired by a pro

There are lots of posts on how to repair the window cranks and three ways.
1 remove window method - lot of work but you get to reseal the window at the same time
2 cut the bottom bar and repair with and sleeve
3 notch the window frame at the crank location and bend the frame back while you complete the repair

i used a little of 1 and 3 for my windows

if it is the front kitchen one i think you really like the huge bed as you can set t up for king or queen size

congrats on your buy

Thank you sooooo much!

I have many little things to do with my camper before it is 100%, and this will help me tremendously.

One thing I would like to do is replace the original galvanized water tank, which is now the grey-water tank, which leaks like of sieve. I haven't pulled it out yet, but does anyone know the dimensions, and if a replacement tank would be available in plastic?

Much appreciated!
