Does anyone have a electronic copy of the owners manual for the 503 cutter? I would like to see what they recommend for the oil and such.

thanks.

I have the paper manual. The reccomended gear oil is: John Deere 85W140 API GL-5.

Thanks. Can you tell me what size socket I need for the blade bolts? My 36mm is too small and the 1 5/8" is too big.

Any chance of getting a scan of the manual?

Socket size should be 1 1/2".

I've got the 503 manual, but no scanner. Have a look at ebay for a copy of the manual. There's a 503 manual there now for about $10.
