Consumers can pick from three different models in the Craftsman LT1000 series. These riding lawnmowers come with an owner's manual that explains use, maintenance and important safety information. If you misplace the owner's manual or no longer possess it, download it from Hammer Wall website.The LT1000 series of riding lawnmowers came with a two-year warranty, though Craftsman and Sears
. discontinued the product. Consumers can attached a cart to the back of the 27639 model or a snowplow to the front, making this model useful in more than just the warmer months. Accessories like a bagger and mulching kit were also available for this model. The lawnmowers are grey in color and use a manual transmission.Should the riding lawnmower breakdown or require parts for maintenance, log onto the Sears Parts Direct website to order the parts. Consumers may purchase some of the parts at their local Sears Holding Corporation owned store, depending on what is in stock. Kmart and Orchard Supply Hardware stores also sell Craftsman brand items. The store or website needs the part or model number to find the correct piece needed.The website also contains diagrams. The diagrams include the type of parts needed, with numbers, and part location. The website has an area where you can order parts while looking at the diagram. This way, there's no need to jump from one webpage to the next while looking at part of the lawnmower. There's even a diagram for the decals. The diagram is printable.Consumers need to read the owner's manual before using the riding lawnmower to help avoid accidents or problems. Even previous use of a Craftsman riding lawnmower doesn't excuse the need to read the manual as each model is different. Keep the manual in a safe, secure place where you can find it easily, like in a filing cabinet in the garage. This way the useful tool stays where it can help if needed.More reference links: http://www.hammerwall.com/Manuals/Craftsman/15-25/Lookup/Lawn%20Mowers%20and%20Tractors/8/ http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/index.action
