Not to be an A$$ but is a website hosting copyrighted material from those companies legal? You may be opening yourself up for a lawsuit(s) from what I've read on the "Terms of Use" on the Toro and Kohler, etc. sites. Personally I don't care but you never know what a Corporate Lawyer may decide to do. I'm not a lawyer so I could be completely off base. The link and snippet below is from the Toro site.

So as long as you don't sell or make a profit it's OK to host copyrighted material?

Some of the Toro manuals are required to be purchased and with your site people can bypass purchasing them from Toro and get them for free. I'd ask to be safe.......... legal@toro.com
