Having the workshop manuals are great, however, if you download the parts diagrams and part numbers from a dealers website such as Messicks dot com you will have some valuable information. The advantage of doing when the product is still available is that when a part goes obsolete you will still have the part number to search for. I wanted a new seat for my BX22, and the part had been discontinued by Kubota when I searched for it on the Messicks website. I dug out my old printed parts diagram and found the part number. Started calling local Kubota dealers and I found one nearby. Without those paper records I would never have found it. I also download to a thumb drive all of the Owners Manuals since sometimes I don't get the manual with the purchase of the implement since it is used.
