Found this whilst browsing, I did link to the site in another section, but felt it may not get so well noticed there. Not just excavators, but a lot of literature on virtually every machine MF made I think up to the Fermec era, some have the dealer stamp of 'Rogers Engineers' who used to be the local MF (and later Hitachi) dealers for my area.
http://www.masseyarchives.com/archive/MFBrochures/9_Plant/Something I noticed in the brochure for the MF 450D having once had the (mis)fortune to use one on occasions, (it was the spare machine), MF highlight the 'safety' feature of having the slew control on the right 'away from the door'. Basically they'd swapped the controls round so everything was ar$e about face, I could never get the hang of driving the damn thing when my Cat was out of action.....
