As Terence Devlin says, you cannot download OS X via anything except a Mac using the the "App Store" application on a Mac OS X 10.6.6 or newer version.


Also you cannot download Mavericks unless your Mac shipped with Mavericks or you previously downloaded Mavericks such that it is in your App Store -> Purchases list.


If your Mac disk previously had Mac OS X Lion or newer OS X version, then there is a change it has a recovery partition.

If the Mac is new enough, it should be able to install OS X via Internet Recovery (a feature in the newer Mac firmware)

If those options are not available, then a friend, or the Genius Bar at an Apple Store.
