    Just went for a look at some of the manuals on here. When I click on the PDF file I get a page up saying "This site has just stepped out for a bit".

    What's all this about ??

    It may be a copywrite issue as those were copies of copywrited documents

    If that is the case, it would be nice if someone said something !

    I thought the new owners of Husqvarna were keen to promote their roots !

    There are many sites across the internet that have copies of the files. As far as I am aware, they are still there.

    Even Craig's Husky Club news letters have gone, along with the Sudco tuning manual. The others I think are still there.

    I noticed some are there and some aren't. The tech ref. for my 73 250 is gone.
    In the meantime, I found all the parts parts fiche files here, starting with 1966 and up: http://huskypartsoutlet.com/parts_fiche

    I sent the links for the 70's manuals and service bulletin to a friend over a month ago and they weren't working then. I wonder if the new Husqvarna ownership is requiring a users fee for the service manuals and other stuff to be available on Café Husky? If that's the case then maybe HVA-Factory agreed to pay it for the 1980 and later manuals I see on their website?

    Not only are the manuals gone,so are the cafe husky administrators.I sent a PM to Mr Coffee and also received no response.This is beyond strange that cafe husky will not lay it out on what happen.Has any other Husqvarna information been removed elsewhere on the site?

    My guess... and it's just a guess... is that the bill hasn't been paid on the hosting site where the attachments are stored? :excuseme:

    Yes that is what happened. the manuals and parts fiches were not on CH....just the links. Hosting site where they were linked too is off the air. Trying to moderate as best as I can but a 1 man band and not the owner here so cant give any more an answer than that.
