Hello out there.
We're new to this!
Damian Baker suggested we try to see if anyone out there could supply us with a PDF manual for a Kubota AV650-3J- [240] generator to pass on to my parents.
They're avid caravaners & recently was given the above generator minus a manual. Dad has always poked about into just about anything, trying with his best carpenter's hand to fix " Liquorice Allsorts." They just completed a life long dream driving to the East crossing the Nullarbor and they're now just in their 80's!
I love the Google map showing a tree above the wording "Nullarbor National Park". Is there really a treed park in the Nullarbor which means "no tree"?
Kind thanks to Damian firstly for help with this site and to anyone who can respond to my parent's need.

Thankyou to those who tried to help with a PDF for Kubota AV650-3j 240v.
However, beware. I was sadly caught with my research. I got into pdfdatabase.com and info came up which turned out to be an advert stating i could get a PDF after paying $1.95 as a one-off fee to help the costings of the website for 'free PDF' downloads. The site was called Files Express. There was no PDF at the end, they got my bank details, and after feeling suspicious, rang my IT man who tracked everything i had done to conclude i had been scammed.
After feeling so mad at myself, teary & ringing to cancel my credit cards, I'm warning other would-be researchers.
One knows this can happen, but it happened so easily i was shocked.
I still have no service manual for my parents!
Thankyou to those who wrote lovely, newsy letters about our Nullarbor & it's treed landscape areas.
The above incident however will not stop us joining ExplorOz as a member in the near future. So much helpful info.
Kind regards
Denise Fields

thanks for warning everyone else and i'm sorry for the trouble ive caused you but google is an open site

Hello Mazcan,
I have absolutely no animosity at all. You were genuine, some on the internet are not. We all grow from such experiences. Please do not worry any more.
Apparently pdfdatabase is supposed to be a good one. But the ad above the listings is suspect. My friend, an IT specialist, followed up what i'd done online & instead of typing in the generator's details, he chose a random thing to research and typed in that he wanted info on "internet fairies." That brought up 4 responses to click on and you guessed right.... the wording was identical to the wording for the generator, saying they could supply info for "internet fairies" which is of course a bogus query. It is a great way to check for genuineness in the future. Think of something silly and get the site to reply and watch for the wording. If the wording is identical, then be suspicious.
Damian Baker offered me a suggestion and later i thought "Why didn't i think of that firsthand?"..to write to Kubota and see if they can post my dad one! As Damian also said it is early days with my post and someone down the line might see it and be able to help.
Hopefully all will turn out well. Happy travelling.
Kind regards,
Denise

"null" = none, "arbour" = tree(s)
Hence 'nullabour' = no trees

Hi Denise,
Re trees on the Nullarbor, it's a bit of a misnomer - there are actually sections of the highway where there are quite a few trees, but this is coz (on the WA side, at least), technically, the Nullarbor Plain only touches the highway in a few places, the bulk of the Nullarbor being north of the highway. There are plenty of eucalypt trees from Norseman to east of Balladonia, then some more low melaleuca (I think) trees out towards Mundrabilla-Eucla. Under these there are a few good (sort of) caravan parking spots.
Even on the Nullarbor-proper north of the highway, there is low eucalypt mallee scrub in a lot of places interspersed with lots of nothingness.
cheers
Gerry
