|
|
Lining-up my sights up for perhaps a WD45 purchase next year and am gleaning all I can about the tractor so if/when the right tractor comes along, I can pounce on it with my wallet!
Thought it might be a good idea to get an owners manual. I've ordered manuals from Agco, but the photocopied manuals they have sent me aren't really that good from a quality of print and illustration standpoint.
Question is - is there a source of original quality manuals for the WD45?
Thanks!

E-bay. I would buy an old original manual with fingerprints on it any day before getting those new poor quality copies. |

I got a reprint from Steiners and very good for a reprint. DJS Parts also sells the reprint. |

I would say watch ebay also for good originals. If you buy a wd45 ask the owner if he has any manuals for it. you never know.
I have a WD45 diesel. I posted a picture of it on a local radio stations website on there "tractor talk" page. A member of dad's church saw my tractor and gave me a brand new looking original parts manual for my tractor. What are the odds? |

Bill I have purchased several reprints. Most had pages out of order and the pictures were too black to see anything. I post on here when ever I need 1 and someone always post back with an original manual for sale. I would not even consider a reprint anymore. They guys and gals on here are more than happy to help. |
