I believe the only place you want to get the POH is right from
Robinson, specially for your check ride. I know websites that have
tried posting this type of information have been politely told to
remove them by Robinson.

You're going to need one for the oral portion so just go out and buy
one.. If you do find a PDF version, chances are it isn't going to be
the latest and greatest with all the current safety notices. (Like
Safety Notice 40 which came out a couple weeks ago)

Besides, you spent tens of thousands of dollars (or euros or rubles or
whatever) to get ready for your checkride and now you want to skimp on
a book that you'll need? It's only $40 and if you get the annual
subscription, you get all the updates as well.

Not sure how the DPEs are around you, but if they all operate like the
examiners around here, if you show up for a checkride without the POH
for the ship you're flying and a current copy of the FAR/AIM, you're
gonna fail. I show up for checkrides dressed like a professional
(nice slacks, oxford shirt...) and with several million pounds of
books & charts.

Don't forget to show up with a precalulated W&B for both full and empty too.
It helps to know how roughly how much the examiner weighs.

You should not use a store bought POH for the ride. Use the POH from the
helicopter your'e gonna be in. The helicopter you take the ride in may have
equipment that modifies the limitations or performance from a standard
machine. (Mine has several things that dramatically alter these.)

Use the checklist in the FAA examination guide too!
