Montgomery Ward UHT-J 1942 manual
 
Does anyone know where I can find a manual for a Montgomery Ward UHT-J 1942? I found this lovely machine at a yard sale last year and I wanted to try to start using it, but I wanted to read the manual to learn all about using it and see where to oil it before I start running it.

Does anyone have a copy of one or know where I could find one on the net?

I copied and pasted your title into Google Search and got some good results. Some are pay for, some are "close" but free.

I have a UHT J276B and manual available and a couple other machines over at the shop. Don't know the numbers or if the manuals are present. They are basically Happy machines and are basically the same. The one has on-board cams, one has external cams, one is free-arm. They thread and operate the same. If you would like, I can scan the one manual I know I have and email it. But, again, any UHT manual will give the basics. Let me know by PM or on forum.

I bought a manual for my Monkey Wards URR-188 over at Relics.

Just be aware that Monkey Wards machines are a BEAR to get parts for. I've had one for a few years that needs a tiny part and cannot find it anywhere. Therefore, I now have a machine I'm just gonna use for parts so, if you need any parts for one --- let me know. Hopefully it won't be the same part I needed.
