Bob,
Normally a manual will be posted on the "Factory Bulletin" forum. There have been two posts for the R-29 and they are useful; however, there are so many options available for each series that the manuals tend to be generic. Your dealer should have provided you with a bag full of goodies that includes manuals for each of the systems and options installed on your particular model. We started with the Factory Basic Manual but found that with our particular options we needed to rework the wiring diagram and add sections. So, all of this rambling is to suggest that you might want to get a good, thick, three ring binder and assemble your own manual by inserting all of the equipment manufacturers' manuals in an order that makes sense to you. You will end up having to refer to the OEM manuals anyway. We used a hole punch and started assembling sections which we have moved about in the binder to make it easier to find the one we need. We had the misfortune of a lightning strike so we became painfully aware of each system and its manual. As we crawled about topsides, cabin and bilge, things began to take a natural order and, we needed to go online to find some of the specific equipment manuals. Our R-29 is a 2009 model and we are still adding to the binder. You can download PDF manuals from almost every vendor that supplied anything to Ranger. We copy everything to the computer so we can use a flash drive to access the data. Ours is still a work in progress but we have learned more about Ladybug, Too than we ever intended to. Good luck!
