Welcome to the realm of PW junkies.
Go to the parts sources page on this website. There are many sources for manuals. The owners manual is nice, but lacks depth. Get a reprint of the W series truck manual. Or just the pages that apply to pw's. I've been told that Vintage PW's has nice reprints. I have an original that was printed in 1950. This book is invaluable as it goes into great detail on the guts of everything. It's almost 1 inch thick and has great text and pictures.
And while you're at it, get the parts manual. It's 1/2" thick. The exploded view pictures are great at showing you what yours is missing and where stuff goes that you took off 6 months ago and since forgot.
