In this case, I looked it up in an old Dutch dictionary (Japans-Nederlands woordenboek by Peter Adriaan van der Stadt, 1934) which happens to be online: http://www.jiten.nl/index.cgi?list=search
When you enter 'setsuyo' in romaji you'll get two possible translations - the one with the right kanji says 'handboek' (handbook or guide in English).
