It is nice to have paper copies of the parts books for ordering and for assembly guidance. If you want paper or DVD books at a reasonable price, check agcopubs.com. A complete set of paper books (ops, parts, svc tractor, svc engine) was $90.

Worked just like you said: I was able to 'get in' as a guest using my 2310's SN. Took me a while to remember you mentioned the sub-chapter(s) Ground Care Equipment and Backhoe/Trencher Attachments, but I eventually got there.
My BH has developed some pretty substantial (though surface) rust on the front panel, due to my mistake of driving it on a paved & salted road in the winter. As a result, I'd like to sand it all down & re-paint it. But it has those stickers on it. Doubt I'll be able to save them for re-use. Good ol' parts book-- there they were!
Have an inquiry to a dealer now as to price & availability; hopefully they're available and won't cost two arms and a leg. Thanks again for the tip!

Thanks again for the tip! It will be interesting to see how you make out. My machine started losing stickers the first time I washed it. It would be nice to have a full replacement set if the price is reasonable. How Do You Read A Horse Racing Program. You never know, the day may come when it's time to restore or sell.
