The maintenance manuals for the LA36 used to be on the University of Queensland Museum of
IT web site. This site is now dead, byt the Wayback Machine still has it. If you look at
<http://web.archive.org/web/20090914043922/http://www.computer.museum.uq.edu.au/documents.html>
you'll see a fairly impressive list of DEC (mostly) manuals. Both volumes of the LA36
maintenance manual, as well as the illustrated parts breakdown (and the user manual) are
on the list. I didn't try downloading them but if that doesn't work, I have
copies that I saved back when the site was still live. Too bad they shut it down.
There are also a few things on BitSavers and there is a page listing LA36 documents at
<http://terminals.classiccmp.org/wiki/index.php/DEC_LA36>, but most of the links
there point to the UQ web site and are dead.
It turns out that this archive is also on Bitsavers at
<http://bitsavers.org/www.computer.museum.uq.edu.au/pdf/>.
