- Each service manual contains maintenance and repair information for the model covered. Pages are loose leaf bound to allow pages to be added or taken out.
- The Master Service manual is divided into seven different informational sections including: 6)
- Dealer - section 0: This section is for Service Bulletins and updates from the MoCo.
- Product - section 1

- The Individual Service Manuals could be purchased by anyone from HD dealerships. These manuals cover maintenance and repair information for only one model. They are also divided into sections like the Master Manual but do not have the Dealer section which includes the Service Bulletin information (not intended for the general public to see). These were also loose leaf bound and could be updated with new model year supplements.
