Default Maintenence manual

Hi All,

I want a maintenence / serviice manual for my 42 1 1/2 tonne truck, to show setting brakes correctlly, adjustments etc etc

I was thinking of a manual like this,

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Ford-Mercur...edirect=mobile

Anyone used this be it paper or electronic? Is it comprehensive? If not any suggestions on a good manual.

Cheers

Corey

I don't have that particular one, but I have used the electronic version, it's just the original manual scanned. I think all the pages are PDF format so it can be printed page by page if needed. Personally I like the real manual so I can refer to it in the garage. Original printed ones show up on this site and eBay. Also look for old Motors repair manuals.
