About

Haynes Owner's Workshop Manuals (commonly known as Haynes Manuals) is a series of manuals from the British and American publisher Haynes Group Limited. The series focuses primarily on the maintenance and repair of vehicles.

The manuals are aimed at beginner and advanced DIY consumers rather than professional mechanics. Later, the series was expanded to include a range of parody practical lifestyle manuals in the same style for a range of topics, including domestic appliances, personal computers, digital cameras, model railways, sport, and animal care. Haynes also published the humorous Bluffer's Guides.

Additionally, Haynes has released parody manuals based on popular fictional series, including Star Trek and Thomas and Friends.

Haynes manuals owns and licenses a number of DIY brands including Clymer, Chilton, Gregorys, and Rellim.
