Rock-o-la CD-8 bubbler newbie questions

Picked up a decent Rock-o-la bubbler repro at auction over the weekend. My
expertise (what little I have) is mainly pinball, so I don't know where to
start. It's pretty much functional, but I'll probably need a few parts for it to
make it cherry, and I might have either a tone adjustment problem or a blown
speaker (really "bassy" music sounds fine, but higher kid's type music sounded
pretty bad, sounded like a blown speaker to me but I don't even know how to get
into the menu to test that theory yet).

Here are my questions, I appreciate any informational posts or email replys that
I get:

Found all the paperwork inside except for the all-important manual. Where can a
guy get one of those. The model on the back says it's a CD-8.

I think it might need one bubble tube replaced, and possibly the lens in front
of it (I see chunks of what looks like glass trapped inbetween the tube and the
lense, I haven't taken it apart to see what is going on). Is the bubble fluid
still caustic like in the old jukes? Where is a good place to obtain parts if I
end up needing them?

Anything special I should know if I am going to be removing/handling those
bubble tubes?

Do you guys have luck finding the light bulbs or fluorescent tubes locally, or
should I plan on getting those from a juke parts supplier too. All of the
incandescent bulbs are out, and the fluorescent tubes look pretty burned on the
ends as well so I was thinking about replacing everything at once.

I found the remote and the cable for the remote in the parts bag inside. Hooked
it up and it works, but is there a place to mount the sensor inside the cabinet,
or is that thing supposed to be routed to the outside or something. Probably a
stupid question. Possible a lot of these are stupid questions.

Is there software available for printing title strips, or does everyone just
improvise those?

Sorry for the long post and pitiful plea for help.

TIA
