 Caveat Tractor
I purchased this manual to get a layout of the undercarriage of a Toro lawn tractor so that I could correctly place the belt guides. Toro was included in the list of manufacturers covered. Although Toro indeed had a section devoted to it in the manual, the layout I was looking for was not included. In fact, no undercarriage diagrams were included. The Toro section basically covered the engine components and not the mower and drive belt components. The Toro section was also rather abbreviated, covering only a few pages. This also applied to many of the other manufacturers; some seemed to be addressed in good detail and some in scanty fashion with entire assemblies not covered at all. I also felt that the illustrations were crammed, inadequate and hard to distinguish. Clymer would have been better off doing detailed and complete sections of fewer items and publishing several volumes, rather than to publish a comprehensive and purportedly inclusive manual covering all makes. Alternatively, they could have excluded power train information and concentrated on providing thorough data on the mowing platforms.
Bottom Line: this is a poor excuse of a service manual.
