254mm RA2500, unfortunately I don't have the manual and it needs a few repairs, works well, and as it was free I am loath not to use it, does anyone have a copy of the manual hiding away somewhere.
I have tried contacting Ryob direct but as yet have not got a reply

Do you still need some assistance with RAS

I too have a Ryobi RA2500 and also have a manual and spare parts list. Whilst some will tell you that they are not sufficiently accurate (and they may not be for fine detailed furniture work) I find my unit to be extremely versatile. The trick is to be accurate during set up and do a spot check on your settings from time to time.Let me know if you still need this info and I will send it to you.
Good Sawing

There is a section on the Ryobi website for instructions. Don´t know if it will be able to help you but it may be worth a try.

If you have a look at the initial posts, they are from 1 and 2 years ago, and are their only posts by fiddlwood and dsg.

I don't they are looking anymore

I recently acquired this saw when I purchased a storage unit. No documentation included. I looked on manufacturer website & found no support for this model. Also checked a couple of sites that supply manuals online... no luck. Then found your site & post. I know some years have past, but was hoping you still had those documents available. While registering for this forum I noticed there may be some resources available here, so that is my next searching point. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hi eddie
It's been a long time since I looked at the manual but will havce a look over the weekend and if i can find will try again to scan. If it works I will contact you and arrange to send a copy.

cheers Bob w

Bob, you should be able to scan to pdf and keep it all as a digital file.
Anytime someone wants a copy just email it as an attachment and let them print it out instead to save you farting around or upload it to one of the file storage servers like photobucket etc and send them the link.

Bob, thanks again for trying to help me out. Stewie has good advice on archiving manuals. I personally have found alot of manuals for equipment & appliances at manualsonline. Unfortunately just not this one.
