Who said the manual WASN'T included? It wasn't delivered when requested. I didn't read anywhere in that where it wasn't included...
.....and if you really believe that someone is goign to get launched through the windsheild because they didn't have a book, then believe what you will. As far as I'm concerned, if that's where your operating abilities lay, something else is going to get you before long.... book, no book, instructor or otherwise. Darwin is coming for you.
I've read through most of the operators manuals I have, and I do have them for nearly every piece of equipment here, bought new or used.... but I've yet to find a day where the lack of a book prevented me from figuering out how to operate it. Mabey that's just me.... but I'd not get too upset over having to wait a week or two for the manual to be located or a new one ordered in if the original was lost.
There's just bigger things in life to worry about.

... and as far as my old dealer covering stuff... It's not much of a theory. We had an engine overhauled on a tractor that spun a bearing just outside warranty. We had to pay some but nothing near what it would normally cost. Wether he did that from his pocket or otherwise screwed it out of NH, I don't know. I just know that what we paid was in no way a reflection of the work done.
On the abuse aspect... I did the work on a customer's tractor for him at one time that was clearly the result of abuse. I told him as such, which he knew anyway... and his response was something to the effect that he would cover it anyway. Regardless. It happens, at least for some of us, wether you like to believe it or not.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
