Any online manuals available free of charge? Any good forums out there?

Parts manual. Type in "530" where it says model number.

I bit the bullet and ordered a variety of printed manuals for my 520. They were pricey but no more expensive than manuals for anything else these days. It is will worth it to have to have hard copies to refer to as you need them. You can use manuals for the 50 for guidance if you find them, the 500 series tractors were evolutionary rather tha revolutionary.
