I’ve googled many a manual for all sorts of household stuff when we’ve mislaid one (or just can’t be bothered to hunt for it) and have never been charged a penny. I think I’d better look more closely at the sites in future! grin

I have found both Pfaff and Singer manuels with no difficulty and free of charge, so I think you may just have been unlucky.

I've never tried to find a manual for a Toyota sewing machine, though.

Found this though, don't know if it is any good to you.

Have you tried emailing the company to see if they can help you or supply a copy of the manul. Even if you have to pay for it it will be worth it if it means you can sew again.

Hi, I've been searching the web for a copy or digital download of a manual for my faithful old Toyota 5500 sewing machine - can't find my own manual. I've been shocked at the number of sites offering manuals for old machines - but in the (very missable) small print it says that you are joining a monthly subscription service to access any manuals at any time.

Has anyone been caught out by this kind of advert? OR found one that is reliable for a one-off request? Any pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated as I want to pass the machine on to my granddaughters. Thanks.
