2001 Winnebago Chieftain owners InfoCase

[tobipaint]

I am looking for the InfoCase for my 2001 Winnebago Chieftain 35U. I bought in used and there wasn't any manuals in the coach. I found the owners manual at Winnebagoind.com. I would like to have all of the other system manuals contained in the InfoCase. I would like any help I can get in locating these manuals. Thanks Larry

I have found almost all the user guides & operator manuals available on-line.
If you get the model # and then google that number, such as "XYZ-123 manual" you'll find most manufactures have pdf's you can download and save and/or print.

Even with the info bag, I still like to have a computer backup copy and the bigger manuals you can do a keyword find and get right to the info you need.

We converted all our paper manuals to digital a few years ago. Now everything fits on a couple DVD's. It's a lot easier than dragging around 10 lbs of paper. We used to carry around not only the original manuals, but also the updates we got in the mail. It's much easier to spend a little time online and download the latest versions

Online we found: Atwood Water heater, Suburban Furnace, HWH leveling system, Sharp Microwave, Dometic Awning, Onan Generator, All the Winnebago wiring and plumbing diagrams, Winnebago Paint codes, Winnebago parts list, Ford F53 owners manual, Intellatec Power Mgmt system, Coleman Air Conditioner and Fantastic Fan. I'm sure there are others, but that's all I can think of off the top of my head

Ditto.

It's unexpected but if you do some opening of panels and a bit of flashlight work you can find most items have a sticker somewhere with a manufacturer part/model # and other info that will Google into a manual. I spent a couple hours with pad and paper going around my unit and even found labels on the inside of my cooktop when I opened it, the various 'system' items like gen, inverter, AV switchbox, radios, water pump, cord reels etc. I made a spreadsheet with all items that I could, recording manufacturer, model #, serial #, web site and such for reference, then burned it all to a CD after downloaded manuals. Left the 25 lb box of paper versions at home.
