The following are some rules that your submitted manuals must pass in order to be accepted. If your manual doesn't comply to all of these rules your manual will not be accepted.
1. Use our search engine and make sure that your manual has not already been submitted.
2. Your manual cannot be completely destroyed and unreadable. It is acceptable if your manuals are torn, ripped, folded, etc. just as long as all the pages are present and readable.
Important - It is very important that you follow the next three rules, unlike the first two where we have a bit of leeway, if your manual doesn't pass the following three rules we cannot legally accept them, and since Farm Manuals Fast doesn't will illegal copies or copyright infringement we wont accept your manuals unless they pass the following three rules. As always if you are concerned about this you can contact us at Support@FarmManualsFast.com and we would be happy to help.
3. Manuals must have been published before 1989 (if there is no copyright you are usually okay).
4. Manuals must have been published within the US (if not contact us ahead of time).
5. Manuals must NOT contain these three:
- A © copyright sign, the word Copyright, or Copr. on them
- the publication year date, and
- the name of copyright owner.
Manuals have to have ALL three of these to not be accepted, if they only have one or two we will still accept them. We will also accept I&T manuals that were copyrighted before 1963.
