Windlass question

I operated my windlass for the first time since I owned the boat, 2  years. Worked well.There was no owners manual aboard.  Boat is a 1995 36 MK2.  I'm not sure the mfg but I think it's a maxwell either 500 or 800.  I live five hours away from my Marina.  I didn't check to see if the model was inscribed.  I'm looking for a manual on line.  The only one I was able to pull up was in some sort of Sanskrit.  Indecipherable!  Anyone out there able to enlighten me on what came stock with my particular boat.  I don't think the PO replaced it.  Also any suggestions on where to find the owners manual.  Thanks much, Bill. PS searched in the archives didn't find anything helpful.

My boat is close to yours, hull no. 1378.  I have the manual on the boat and can scan and email it to you. Should be on the boat this weekend.

How generous of you.  I see you are on the SF bay.  As you may have noticed I'm in Sausalito.  I'll buy you a drink at the No Name Bar.  I'll respond to you in the email section and give you my email address.  Thank you, Bill Reitz

I would really like a copy of the Windlass Manual if possible!  Hull # 1400 in Alex, VA getting ready for Hurricane Joquin!
Thanks!

Here is a link that you can use to download the manual.
I do have the PDF manual for 500 and 800 model - but I can not upload here since the file is larger than the 2 MB limit that is placed here.
email me if you would like me to email you a copy - click here >>  email

The 500 and 800 manuals are on line. Look for "Freedom" under obsolete manuals. http://www.maxwellmarine.com/support_manuals.php

Thanks.  Found out mine is a Max 500.  Haro had it and emailed it to me.  I'm all set.  By the way this association is an invaluable source.  So many willing to help out.  Thanks all.  Bill
