I just bought a JD 790 and need a owner's manual and a service manual. They each are $150.00 at the dealership. Do any one of you know if the ones you download online are just as good? If so, which website is the best. I have seen some for around $50.00 for each manual. Thanks!!!

If you bought a NEW machine from a dealer, the Owner's Manual should be included at no charge. Demand one. Don't take no for an answer. If you bought it used from a third party, that's a different matter. Owner's Manuals are free to view/read on the Deere main website, not sure about downloading/printing. Here is a manual for a 790 (looks like an older machine): Introduction
Service Manuals are a different animal and not generally available for free.
Parts diagrams are available on a number of sites, but you can usually only view or print a page at a time.

The owners manual can be viewed for free on John Deere's website:
Owners Manual
The page I've linked has a link to view the owners manual. Also at the top is a link to Deere publications were you can find the Technical Service Manual for purchase. A down load is around $200. So, if your dealer will sell you one for $150, that is a good deal. Many years ago, I paid $100 for a Technical Service Manual from my dealer. It has paid for itself many times over.
All of these publications are copy written materials. Finding them on third party websites are either boot leg, or could be legitimate used copies which are OK.
