Jimland74 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 (edited) Looking for advice on where to find operator and workshop manuals for a Hotchkiss Jeep. Are there any that can be downloaded or viewed online? If not, where can I buy them? Ta. Edited August 16, 2020 by Jimland74 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimland74 Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 There's plenty of interesting material on the M201 website, but unfortunately it doesn't have any manuals that can be viewed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbayonetww2 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 i take it you've tried the links on the page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimland74 Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 I have but no joy. And the Technical section shows the titles of the various manuals, but that's it. I emailed Andy, but no reply. Maybe the site isn't managed any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbayonetww2 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 (edited) Have you tried the links to the french sites... what information do you need? I had a look and it was easy to find. I've copied the link for you. But it is in French, the M201 being a french vehicle https://m201.pagesperso-orange.fr/ Edited August 18, 2020 by welshbayonetww2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimland74 Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 Thanks again, much appreciated. I am buying a Hotchkiss and don't have any experience of them (only Series Land Rovers mainly), so I was hoping to view the user and workshop manuals to familiarise myself. Easier said than done though. Especially when I don't really speak French 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbayonetww2 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 In that case, as you've seen from the M201 site the majority of parts are the same as Willys, so the standard manual will cover most. and the M201 site will give you the electrics and what mods were made by Hotchkiss. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Complete-WW2-Military-Jeep-Manual-Army-Factory-Service-Book-Willys/254485522808?hash=item3b4084e978:g:eqsAAO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimland74 Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 That looks like it will be perfect for me. Thanks very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
