From what I understand of info files, there should be a 'dir' file
where the info files are for it to be seen by the info program.  and
that 'dir' can easily be created via

install-info org --dir-file=dir

Since I untar and rename every release as org and in a different
directory outside of Emacs directory, I requested Carsten to create
the dir file for me

http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg02668.html

and I have this for me in the .Emacs.

;;;; 
(setq Info-default-directory-list  
      (cons "c:/gnu/elisp/org/" Info-default-directory-list)) 
;;;for org 
(setq load-path (cons "c:/gnu/elisp/org/" load-path)) 
(require 'org-install) 

When I go into info, and go into org manual it brings up the latest
version document.
