AMC Valente 815 Parts Catalog – What You Need on the Bench

You are looking at the factory AMC Valente 815 Parts Catalog – 177 pages of genuine exploded views and part numbers. I have seen too many guys try to rebuild a crane using aftermarket parts lists that have wrong callouts. That is how you end up with a stabilizer leg that does not fit or a slew ring that binds. This catalog came from AMC Valente’s own printing press. It covers the 815 model crane in five languages: Italian, English, French, German, Spanish. The table index on page 2 lists every assembly from the base plate to the rod extension cylinders. You get the same cross-references that AMC factory techs use when ordering parts. No guesswork. No third-party translations that lose a thread size.

I have torqued head bolts on everything from a Ford 300 to a Cat C15. When I see a parts catalog that says “OEM” but came from a scan of a scan, I walk away. This one is a direct digital copy of the official AMC Valente spare parts book. The file name is AMCValente_815_Parts_Catalog_it-en-fr-de-115614020071.pdf. You access it, you print the pages you need, and you take them to the parts counter. That is how it should work.

BASAMENTO (BASE) and ROTAZIONE (SLEWING) – Two Critical Assemblies

Flip to page 1 and you see the base plate drawing with the part number 5.42.0014-1-0. Every bolt hole and weldment is dimensioned. Page 2 gives you the slewing assembly (6.24.0056-2-0) and the 410-degree slewing variant (6.24.0135-2-0). If you are replacing a slew bearing or a hydraulic motor, you need the exact part number. The catalog shows the hydraulic jack and the hydraulic system separately – pages 4 and 5. That matters when you order seals or the entire cylinder assembly. I have seen guys order the wrong seal kit because they did not have the factory drawing. Do not be that guy.

Stabilizer Rods: Manual vs. Hydraulic Expansion

This catalog breaks down stabilizer rods by expansion type. Manual expansion elements (5.76.0023-1-0, page 6) and hydraulic lengthening (5.76.0025-2-0, page 9). There are extra-extensible and super extra-extensible variants. You get separate part numbers for the rod, the jack, and the hydraulic system. The section on stabilizer hydraulic jacks (6.20.0103-1-0 on page 11, 6.40.0103-1-0 on page 12) gives you the complete assembly exploded view. If you are rebuilding a stabilizer leg, you need those pages open on your tablet, not some generic diagram from a forum. Automotive Industry Overview is about the broader industry, but this catalog is specific to AMC Valente’s heavy-lift equipment.

3 Reasons to Stick with OEM Documentation

First, aftermarket parts catalogs often reuse part numbers from different models. AMC Valente assigns unique numbers per revision. The logbook code on the front page (7.88.0503 rev.1) tells you the exact revision level. Second, OEM drawings show thread pitch and torque specs in the callouts – you see the fastener grade right next to the bolt. Third, the hydraulic system diagrams include port sizes and fitting part numbers. You cannot get that from a third-party site. This catalog covers the full slewing hydraulic jack (page 4) and the rod extension hydraulic cylinder (page 23). Those pages alone are worth the price of the access.

Audience Fit: Who Needs This Catalog?

If you own an AMC Valente 815 crane, you need this catalog. If you repair them for a living, you need this catalog. The parts counter at your local hydraulic shop will ask for a part number – you hand them the page number from this PDF. Amateur mechanics with heavy equipment should not guess on swivel fittings or seal dimensions. The hydraulic system section (page 26 for the rod extension cylinder) shows the exact O-ring sizes. One wrong O-ring and you are chasing a leak for a day. This catalog eliminates that.

Source Validity: Original OEM, Not a Reprint

AutoRepairManuals sells the largest collection of verified OEM shop manuals in North America. The AMC Valente 815 Parts Catalog is scanned from the original binder. The watermark and logbook code are intact. You are not getting a copy of a copy. The dimensions and callouts are sharp. I have bought “OEM” manuals elsewhere that turned out to be poor photocopies with blurry part numbers. This one is clean. Massey-Harris-Ferguson FF 30 GS 1957 Parts Catalog | OEM Fastener Guide and Futura Wear Technology Parts Catalog are other examples of factory-sourced documentation on this site. If you need parts for older equipment, check the LANDTRAC TRACTOR Parts Manual Models 410-550 DTC – Section: Numerical Index as well.

How to Use the Catalog

Open the PDF, go to the table index (page 2). Find the assembly you need – BASAMENTO, ROTAZIONE, ASTE STABILIZZATORI, etc. Each entry has a part number (e.g., 5.42.0014-1-0) and a page number. Print that page. The drawing shows each component with a callout number. The parts list on the same page (or facing page) gives the AMC Valente part number, description, and quantity. Write down the part number and take it to your supplier. That is it. No reverse image search. No guessing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this catalog include torque specifications?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Torque values are not listed. You need the separate service manual for assembly torques.

What hydraulic assemblies are covered in the 177 pages?

The catalog covers the slewing hydraulic jack (page 4), stabilizer hydraulic jacks (pages 11, 12, 18, 28), and rod extension cylinders (pages 22–27). Each assembly includes the hydraulic system diagram and the cylinder itself.

Can I get the parts book in a printed copy?

AutoRepairManuals sells a digital PDF. You print the pages you need. The PDF is searchable if you have a reader that supports OCR on the Italian/English text. Much easier than flipping through a bound book.

Is the old logbook code still relevant for ordering parts today?

Yes. AMC Valente uses the logbook code to cross-reference revisions. Give your supplier code 7.88.0503 rev.1 along with the part number to ensure you get the correct revision.

Access the Factory Manual. Open it on your shop tablet or print the relevant pages. The next time you need a part for your 815, you will have the correct number in your hand. That is the difference between a job that takes two hours and one that takes two weeks chasing wrong parts.
