Had a reader request the users manual for her 2004 Sunnybrook.
I wrote Sunnybrook and they graciously supplied it to me ( Thanks Sunnybrook ).
Here is the manual for the 2004-2005 Sunnybrook Fifth Wheel Travel Trailer Owner Manual.

I just bought a 2005 Puma 5th wheel 253 FBS and need a owners manual/wiring/plumbing layout.
Thanks
Marlan "Living Frugal and Tiny" RV Guy says
Dennis – let me see what I can find. Our Puma’s manual was pretty sketchy on details like a plumbing layout so you might want to set your expectations low!
Marlan "Living Frugal and Tiny" RV Guy says
Dennis,
I have confirmed with Forest River that the only manual available is the owners manual that you can find on Palomino’s site OR here ( http://rv52.wpengine.com/rv-users-manual-information-palomino-puma-users-manual/ ). I’m sending this to your email too just in case you don’t get followups from the site.

My dad passed away in June. He had a beautiful 2008 Mobile Scout 5th wheel trailer, 35′ with 3 slide outs. This RV now belongs to me. I have searched everywhere and can not find an owners manual. I can’t find any manuals for this RV. I called the dealer (found the information on the title) and was told ‘we have nothing like that,’ Without any type of manual i have no idea how to put out and then retract the slideouts, where the propane is, you get the picture i hope, creek and paddle come to mind. any suggestions on obtaining a manual??
Marlan at Rv52 says
Cheryl,
In general, RV MFG users manuals are TERRIBLE. My guess is that even if you find the right one (and I’ll look around for you too) is that you’ll be terribly disappointed and still won’t get your answers.
That is why I wrote a couple of ebooks on the subject: http://rv52.wpengine.com/alinks/rv-books-marlan-winter/
I’ve broken them between interior and exterior. Someday, in amongst my infinite and copious time, I’ll join them together to make a users manual that hopefully fills in the gaps.
But I think any RV users manual will be about the same. So I wouldn’t put too much stock on the manual, especially one that is specific. The MFG just don’t put that much effort into the manuals.
Hope this helps and I’ll look around a bit for you.

Linda Gilbert says
Trying g to find a owners manual for 2006 Sunnybrook Sunsst Creek travel trailer that has a slide out.
Marlan at Rv52 says
Linda – what exactly are you trying to find? Here is why I ask. RV owner’s manuals are amazingly vague. They write a very generic manual that can cover most of their models. If a person’s perspective is that an RV is more like a car and would have a users manual like CAR companies make – I believe that is the wrong perspective. An RV owners manual is more like the owner’s manual to a house (u r lucky to get something like this). Why? Because RV manufacturing is much, much more like a home builder process and mentality than a car mfg thought process.
Take the internal appliances/features – In a car, almost every feature is unique and created by the car company – or for the car company per the car company’s detailed specification. In an RV, the features are generally purchased from a supplier catalog and not created custom for the particular RV (Airstream might be slightly different). That means that the manual is expected to come from the supplier, not the RV company. So the BEST strategy is to collect the manuals from each supplier item in your RV – then you have a really accurate manual “set”.
Then the only thing that would be nice to know is the exact routing/location of water, electric and other things. But I’ve rarely seen very good documentation on that subject.
So, you’ll typically be disappointed with the manual. The info in there is general and more about satisfying the requirements of shunting liability rather than being a great owners manual.
John Munn says
I agree about the lack of specifics in Sunnybrook RV manuals. I have a 2004 (I think) Sunnybrook Titan m-28RLKS that was purchased used by my father. It has many features that are different than are described in the Sunnybrook 2004-2005 manual. I am lucky, however, to have most of the appliance manuals. But information about the electric and water systems is lacking. For example, my electric “box” is located on the floor instead of an upper cabinet and has some very different components. I called Winnabego, now the owner of Sunnybrook, and was told that they did not get manuals for the earlier trailers. So it seems to be up to new owners to figure out what’s in each trailer and how it works.
Lori Stushek says
I am looking for an owners manual for a 2007 Sunny Brooke Brookside 31′ travel trailer. Do you know where I can get that?
Lloyd Sellers says
We have a 2004 Sunnybrook Titan fifth wheel triple axle, we had a blow out on the right side and torn off the fender skirt, we can’t find anyone that has one in stock or will make one, need to get fender skirt replaced soon.
Marlan at Rv52 says
Amazon had a really good selection here ( https://amzn.to/2nEAa6X ). Did any of them look like they would fit? You might need to get a pair if you want them matching. Most of them at least put the dimensions on so maybe you could find a match? Most of the low ratings seem to be about cost, but $250 for a pair of fenders that have a low volume of sales seems fair to me. Did they seem to be in stock? Maybe you just have to put the order in and wait? I’d be very interested to hear about your experience.
Those blow-outs are super scary. I’m glad a fender is all that got hurt.
Did you call Sunnybrook (Forest River) to see what they had?
Larry Knapp says
I have a Sunnybrook Solanta 2726 Travel Trailer. I’m in need of a owners manual specifically a wiring diagram.
Marlan at Rv52 says
I have never seen an owner manual with much useful info like a wiring diagram. The manuals are usually very generic.
