From debugging through the CMISQueryParser, it looks up the Type Definition using the CMIS Dictionary Service (CMISStrictDictionaryService and CMISAbstractDictionaryService) using

findTypeByQueryName(tableName)‍

. tableName is "tdmublicManual"

The dictionary service uses a registry which is mapping names to Type definitions…so more than likely, the mapping of tdmublicManual to the Type named "tdmublicManual" is being overwritten in the Map by the association named "tdmublicManual".

Whether the model is inherently flawed or not, I'm not sure, but certainly the CMIS Query Parser is not compatible with it as it is.
This is looking like an update to the model and a data fix script.

In CMIS Specification a relationship object MAY be queryable,but now alfresco does not support queries for relationship type.
So in my opinion ,you'd better avoid defining an association with same name as a a type.
