I get a kick out of reading various manuals written in Chinese, Korean, or Japanese and translated to English. Where do they get these translators? Why don't they have a person who has English as a native language review and offer corrections? I agree that the Branson owner's manual is a joke and close to useless. The maintenance manual is considerably better and is of value. Also, the manuals are too generalized and you are unsure if the information relates to your specific tractor. That is particularly true of the parts manual. There is a good chance you will order the wrong part if you use it. You are better off by getting the part number off your old part (If it still has it on the tag, which do stay on quite a while). My dealer had to take a picture of an AC line from my tractor and send it to Rome after they repeatedly sent the same line for a different tractor.
I would lay the responsibility on Rome, Ga people to demand that their mothership company does a better job on manuals for their American customers. Either that or do it themselves. I get the feeling though that Rome is drastically understaffed.
