I too have a 260 propane manual if you need to get a copy. My advice would be to find someone who either has one or has run one to show you how to start it. While not difficult, it is a little different and if you dont have the right hook up for oil, etc., you will have a neat 'wallhanger'. If you can post some pics of what you have, maybe we can offer some advice as to what fittings you have/need. But, wait for the manual!
