I recently acquired a Katy Instruments Recovery II Model K-3338 freon recovery unit. Does anyone know where I can get a user's manual?

google is your best friend

-------------------------
The number one A/C diagnostic tool there is- is to know how much refrigerant is in the system- this can only be done by recovering and weighing the refrigerant!!
Just a thought.... 65% of A/C failures in my 3200 car diagnostic database (GM vehicles) are due to loss of refrigerant due to a leak......

Apparently this is an obscure make of recovery unit that even Google isn't being very friendly today.

Fairly sure that was a re-branded unit Katy sold about 3 decades ago.

Katy is still in business, down on Park Row in Houston TX.
