Check the model and serial number on your machine before ordering. Some manuals only cover a range of serial numbers.
Which machines does this manual cover?
The John Deere 240, 250 (2000 edition). If your machine has a different model number, look for the manual for that model.
Is it the original manufacturer manual?
Yes. It is John Deere's own service manual, not a third-party reprint or a summary.
How many pages does it have?
490 pages, in 9 parts listed above.
How do I receive it?
It is a PDF. After payment it is available to download from your account, and you can read it on a computer, tablet or phone or print the pages you need. No printed book is shipped.
Check the model year on your VIN: on a 2000 vehicle the 10th character of the 17-digit VIN is “Y”. Vehicles built for North America always carry the model year in that position; on some European or Australian vehicles it may be left unused, so in that case go by the registration papers or the build plate.
At about 26 years old, a 2000 vehicle is in the age range where wiring, rubber hoses, seals and corrosion repairs take most of the work, and where original factory information is hardest to find.
