C-Series14 15 #3 Posted February 21, 2010 Go to the original group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wheelhorsetractormanuals/ Then go to the left side and enter "database" search "C-160" and then it should show you everything for C-160 and what group it is in. Never used it till now and I looked up C-160. That should get you close unless the experts see this and help more! B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am looking for a manual for my C-160 Auto I'm with you on this one Shu. That is the most useless site. I have never found how to properly use the site. It is not user friendly, and I have never found anything I needed for my B-100. Someone has to have a service manual uploaded somewhere, but darned if I can find it.

pfrederi 18,660 #5 Posted February 21, 2010 Enter your model number in the search box on the database page of the basic wheel horse manuals group. Example I entered 1-0380 for a 1974 C-160 and got 5 hits. The owners manual is not available in the yahoo groups you have to buy it from Toro. There is a service bulletin in group #8. Bottom line owners manuals for newer machines are not there as Toro still sells them (Heard of copyright??) Lets not be cheap now... Also it is not the easiest thing to navigate but that is a limitation of Yahoo groups not the group owners to whom I owe a debt of thanks as i have found much good stuff there.

tgranthamfd 29 #7 Posted February 22, 2010 check out this site. Provided by a member here. Easy to use and find stuff. As stated go to the mentioned sight in this quote. Register and you will have access to way more manuals than you can use, Mike is a great guy, as well. As for newer manuals, I personally sent him manuals for the Toro Wheel Horse Classic series. If you guys haven't checked the sight out, you should. Loads of information with good quality pictures. Just my 2 cents. B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I entered my model (71-10K801) and got 2 hits. They are the same hits I get everywhere, the parts manual and the owners manual, neither of which I need. As I said, there has to be some place in this vast cyberspace where service manuals are floating around in the ether. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
