Part of the Case Repair Manuals.
This 89-page Ji Case / David Brown Shop Manual covers the 885, 885N, 995, 1210, 1212, 1410, and 1412 tractors, one factory document for the whole family instead of guessing which pages apply to your rig. Inside you get full Selectamatic hydraulic lift system coverage, a spool valve and control valve overhaul walkthrough, plus troubleshooting for the diesel fuel system when your tractor won't start or won't lift. You'll also find the front axle, transmission, differential, and clutch procedures laid out the way David Brown techs actually worked them. Set spool valve total movement within 0.001 inch of the dimension etched on the valve itself, and confirm your minimum traction control position before you touch the lift arms. No more flipping through a stack of loose photocopies hoping you grabbed the right model. Pull it up on your phone at the tractor, jump straight to the Selectamatic section through the bookmarks, and get the job done right the first time.
