Thread: RYOBI SC-160 12 years old need some info

Thought I'd let everyone know that several of the overseas ISP's are blocking some of the Aussie ISP's.... a bit of a nuisance.. it gets fixed and days later we get blocked again..... specially if you're using aapt... it's a constant battle.
At the moment the blocked ones are comcast, roadrunner, some aol, bigpond.... this list changes every so often...

Best way is to open a web based e-mail for use in forums. Plenty to choose from.... gmail, hotmail, yahoo .. there are even some you can use for just one single transaction!
Also saves you from getting spam to your main address!

Hi Gang, Just joined up.
I'm also looking for the SC160 manual but this is an old thread.
Can any one help me out?
Thanks,
Brian

G'Day Brian,

Yes I am sure I still have it on file but you will have to give me a few days to find it as I have had a major melt down and I am breaking in a new laptop. P.M. Me with your email and I will send it direct to you.

Hi Eric,
Paul Ereaut (Aeroman) also responded and it sounds like he may have the file at hand. If so, you're off the hook but I really appreciate both of you helping out.
Whatever I get I'll turn into a pdf and post on the OwnerIQ website if anyone else comes looking for it.
Thanks again,
Brian Dunn

Hi Gang,
Paul provided the manual which I've posted on OwnerIQ (but it hasn't shown up on yet) and will glad pass on to anyone who needs a copy. The parts diagram is a bit fuzzy BUT in taking a close look and comparing it to the diagrams and parts lists here in the USA there are slight differences in the diagrams and descriptions.
Most notable is the blade guard: the Aus/NZ PDF shows a screw coming from the rear while the diagrams on the US parts site show a screw coming from the bottom. And some of the numbers/descriptions on the US parts sites are mixed up. So just be careful when you order something.
Best of luck,
Brian

Well, you ain't gonna believe this but I just found that the manual is still available from Ryobi.
Part Number 1980010 is OMSC160 and is available from Sears (US$2.16), M&D Mowers (US$4.67) and ToolPartsDirect (US$6.23).
Enjoy,
Brian

G'Day Brian,
I am sorry for not being able to help as quickly as I would have like to, but when the old laptop crashed it was a matter of just shoving in CD's and saving what I could so I am sure I've still got it, I just can't find it as yet. I am glad that you got someone here to help you as I felt a little guilty saying I would help and you have not heard from me, again sorry not being able to help!

No worries, mate!
I've ordered a few parts it was missing as well as a genuine manual.
Now I just have to start making sawdust...
