Called Helm Inc today. The service manuals are out of stock. They are re-printing them now and expect a two week delay in shipping.

This sure is a backward way to convey information, kinda like "78" rpm records. Now where to store these 4 books, but yet readily available?

7.5" of reading! Compare that to the manual for my 1981.

Still no manual for the 2015. It's ridiculous that it's takes them this long to produce it.

As for an electronic version, they're probably not going to do it because they're just too easy to pirate.

When you've got a monopoly, you don't need to provide customer service.

First off, nothing ticks me off more than poor customer service. Having said that, do you have a tracking number? Did you call FEDEX and see what they say? The tracking number may have been pulled, but the package may not have been picked up. What did Helm tell you, if anything? Usually, the company (Helm) is still responsible for the package and they will need to contact FEDEX if the package was picked up and is lost.

Word of advice... FEDEX is horrible to deal with when they have a lost package and need to do an "investigation." I had a package lost through them and the right hand did not know what the left hand was doing. I got a visit from the driver who said he knew he did not deliver the package to me, but he had to check. I also got a visit from their investigator when I was not home. He would not return my phone calls. After two weeks of dealing with FEDEX and their investigation, I was finally told that the company who shipped the item would have to file the claim. Deal with Helm and have them file a claim with FEDEX.
