Thanks John &amp; Doug, I do need a manual, will order one tomorrow, probably a reprint from over here as I have never ordered from overseas.  The BD is running great and doing a little light work, we bought the OC12 to clear regrowth from our property so the BD is plodding along quietly till the OC is functional again.  The OC12 has been fairly knocked about so it will remain the workhorse and the BD will again live in a shed, out for special occassions.  Too nice a tractor to damage, some paint and upholstery work and it will be like new.
Thanks again,
Brian <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->
