Gary,

Did you ever find a manual for your Chipper Vac? Where? How about a sourse for parts?

I just bought a used Chipper Vac-Very good condition for being 17 years old! Sad to find out that Troy Bilt (Garden Way) no longer around. Good tough equipment!

I may be of some help to you. I recently purchased a 5HP model myself. It was LIKE NEW. I changed the oil, put in a high performance spark plug, fresh gas, hosed it off, and it literally looks and runs like NEW. It turned out that mine was a model 47282. I emailed Troy-Bilt about obtaining a owners manual for this model. They explained that for a while prior to the bankruptcy of Troy-Bilt, Garden Way mfg. made the chipper vacs. MTD took over the assets of Troy-Bilt but did not pick up those assets from Garden Way. I was told that Murray had picked up those assets. That explains why when you try to find a manual on Troy-Bilt web page or MTD web page with a valid model number and serial number, it is unable to find anything for this series of model numbers.. I was successful in one regard, I found a man that had an owners manual for 5HP chipper vacs (similar vintage) on EBAY. The particular model numbers covered in his offering was 47276,47279,47280 and 47281. Mine is a 47282 so it is most likely very close. I will be quite happy to find a manual that is close at least. There still are parts available for this machine and I am quite happy to have mine. When I get the manual, I will scan it into a pdf to share it with others who I know are looking for manuals of this vintage.
Replyt to this url in about a week and I should have PDF copies available.

There are two people who can provide owners manuals for the Troy-Bilt 47282. They are Doug Squires [dsat1d2@yahoo.com] and FRED [frederick7153@comcast.net]
Doug says "My manuals cover models 47278, -80, -82, -83.
The Owner/Operator Manual is 50 pages. The Parts Catalog is 16 pages.
I'm willing by electronic media (PDF):

1. To provide the part numbers from my catalog that best match your description of the part. I'm assuming you understand the parts may not be available.
2. To provide a good b&w scanned copy of the Parts Catalog for $7.50.
3. To provide a good b&w (the original front & rear covers are black, gray, red & white) scanned copy of the Owner/Operator Manual for $15.
4. To provide a good b&w scanned copy of the chipper's engine -Tecumseh Owners Manual (6 pages) for $3.00.
5. To provide a good b&w scanned copy of the parts sheets on the Vacuum Snout Attachment, Vacuum Inlet Cap Attachment & Safety Interlock Lanyard Replacement Kit. Another 5 pages for $3.00.
6. Sell all the originals...maybe. However the binding staples would be removed & the pages will be slit into separate sheets (to get the scanned versions). They all are in very good condition.
   If you are interested let me know & we can work out the payment. I have a Paypal account. I'll also take a check & send the documents when it clears.
   Regards,
   Doug"

FRED says: "Please feel free to provide my contact information with anyone that you would like to share it with. I also have manuals for other models of Troy Bilt chipper vac 47291 47292 47286 47287 47282 47281 47280 47279 47278 and parts

I found the Model 47261 manual at brentchalmers.com. This manual included the information that "The Model Numbers that appear on the front cover of the Owner/Operator Manual have changed as follows:
Model No. 47260 is now 47278 Model No. 47271 is now 47280
Model No. 47261 is now 47279 Model No. 47272 is now 47281".
