workshop manual

Mechanic's reference book

A workshop manual is a technical guide for repairing and maintaining machinery, especially vehicles.

Unlike owner's manuals that cover basic operation, workshop manuals provide detailed procedures, specifications, and diagrams intended for mechanics and serious hobbyists: I downloaded the workshop manual before attempting to rebuild the transmission.

Also called a service manual or repair manual.
