YQM-60

Anybody know the difference between a YQM-60(A) mower and a YQM-60(B)? There are two manuals to choose from, but the label on my mower only indicates YQM-60 serial 517.

There was a YQM60(no suffix), it had free swinging blades, kind of like a brushhog.
The YQM60A had 'regular' mower blades.
The YQM60B had a front center roller and optional front outboard gauge wheels.

Strange. Mine has the original Yanmar plate that says YQM-60 ser 571. No A, no B, and no free swinging blades. They're $125 heat treated alloy 20-1/4" finish mower blades. It does have a pair of gauge wheels on spindle brackets, but no center anti-scalp roller. Plus there's a blocking plate for the right side. It's a left hand rotation unit, so I guess that blocking plate must have something to do from switching between rear discharge and side discharge.

But it still doesn't help me figure out which manual to buy; the only two I've found available are either YQM-60A or YQM-60B
