Consider purchasing both the parts and service manual for your tractor, if available. The parts manual will make it much easier to find the right parts for the job, while the service manual will lay out all the procedures for you. The operator's manual adds all the basic information meant for the end user of the machine. PICK UP ALL THREE and save yourself time and money!
