All Google can find for me is this manual

which is for V7.1.

Birgitta's link is essentially the same as that, except with 73
instead of 71. And indeed, if you go to the link for 7.1 and have the
PDF open in your browser, you can just edit the one character in the
URL in the address bar and you'll get the new version.

I find that is often the case (at least lately; who knows what IBM
will do in the future). Google will find some version, but maybe not
the version you're interested in, and you just manually tweak the URL
in the address bar and it works.

I do like having a local copy of any PDF I'll be using repeatedly, so
once I have what I want open in the browser, I use the download button
in the in-browser PDF view.

If you are set up to download PDFs automatically (to a file, instead
of viewing in the browser) by clicking on the link, then you may have
to do some workaround. Worst case, you copy the URL you found (for the
wrong version) into a text editor and futz with it there, then paste
the new URL into the browser's address bar.
