AUSA 250, 300, 350, 400, AM Parts Catalog

If you’ve ever ordered a part for an AUSA 250, 300, 350, 400, or AM forklift and ended up with the wrong bracket, seal, or gear because you were guessing from a blurry aftermarket PDF, you know the pain. This is a 72-page factory Parts Catalog—not a reprint, not a copy. Every exploded view on these pages came from AUSA’s own engineering files, and the part numbers in it are the ones the factory uses. I’ve seen techs lose half a day because a third-party diagram swapped the left and right engine mounts. That doesn’t happen with this manual. It tells you which table, which figure, and which reference number corresponds to each part. You get the chassis number, the table number, the figure number, and the part reference—exactly what your dealer needs to ship you the correct component.

What This Parts Catalog Covers

The manual is organized by vehicle groups—exactly how AUSA builds them. You get the Engine Group (engine, supports, air cleaner, clutch, silencer), the Transmission Group (clutch bell housing, gear box, speed gear, reductor support, universal drive joints, front and rear axles), and the Chassis Group (chassis frames, connecting rods). Each group is broken into numbered tables and figures. The index on page 4 lists every section. If you need the clutch bell housing, you flip to table page 10. If you need the front axle, page 18. This is not a generic manual; it’s model-specific for the 250, 300, 350, 400, and AM variants. Do yourself a favor and compare that to a universal parts list that covers ten different brands—you’ll see why this matters.

3 Reasons to Use OEM Parts Catalogs

First, the part numbers are verified. Aftermarket catalogs often transpose digits or use superseded numbers that don’t cross. I’ve had a customer order a reductor seal for a 300 based on a third-party list, and it was the wrong profile. The factory catalog shows the exact reference. Second, the exploded views show orientation and assembly order. You see how the snap rings stack, which side the bearing faces. Third, these are the same drawings the AUSA dealer network uses. You call them with the chassis number and the reference from this manual, and they ship the right part. No back-and-forth. No returns.

How to Order Parts Correctly

Open the manual to any page. Every component is referenced with four pieces of data: Nr. of chassis, Nr. of table, Nr. of figure, and Nr. of reference. The introduction on page 3 spells it out in both Spanish and English. You read that page, you write down those four numbers, and you hand them to your distributor. I’ve had guys skip the chassis number and wonder why the part didn’t fit—because the 350 and 400 share a lot of geometry but differ in the reductor. You need that chassis number. Also note that the manufacturer reserves the right to change specifications—so if you’re buying parts for a 2010 250, check the serial range. This catalog accounts for that.

Exploded Views: Engine, Transmission, Chassis

The engine section (starting on page 7) covers motor supports, air cleaner, clutch, and silencer. The transmission section (page 10 onward) goes through the bell housing, gear box, speed gear, reductor, and drive joints. The chassis section (page 20) shows the frame rails and connecting rods. Each exploded view is to scale with part numbers called out. If you’re rebuilding a 400 transmission, you need the universal drive joint (F.A.) and (R.A.) diagrams on pages 16 and 17. You’ll see the bearing spacers, the yokes, the circlips. This level of detail is what separates a parts catalog from a parts list.

Audience Fit: Who Needs This Manual

Home garage enthusiasts who maintain their own AUSA forklift. Small equipment dealers who stock spares for the 250, 300, 350, 400, and AM models. Workshop owners with a fleet that includes these machines. If you’ve got a AUSA forklift on your lot and you need to identify a part, this manual saves you the headache of measuring and hoping. I’ve seen DIYers strip a bolt because they used the wrong torque on a reductor mount—this catalog won’t give you torque specs, but it will give you the part number so you can order the correct replacement fast. That’s the point.

Source Authenticity: Why Factory Data Beats Aftermarket

This is the original OEM document. The OCR excerpt on page 3 says “On the following pages you will find the list of spares of different components of the vehicle; and duly referenced to identity the spare you need.” That’s the manufacturer’s own language. Aftermarket catalogs often re-draw figures and drop callouts. You get the original AUSA numbering system. I don’t trust aftermarket documentation on principle—they skip details. This manual does not skip. It’s the same PDF the AUSA techs pull up when they’re rebuilding a 350.

What is the difference between this parts catalog and a service manual?

A service manual tells you how to take it apart and put it back. This parts catalog tells you what to order. Two different tools, both necessary. This one focuses on exploded views and part numbers.

Do I need to order from an official AUSA distributor?

Yes. Always use OEM parts.

How do I identify the correct part for my 250 vs 400?

You must use the chassis number, table number, figure number, and reference number as stated on page 3. This 72-page catalog contains dozens of exploded views covering the 250, 300, 350, 400, and AM models. The parts catalog shows each variant in separate tables, so check the header at the top of each page. For example, the reductor support differs between the 300 and 400; the figure number will match your chassis.

Are the part numbers still current?

The manufacturer reserves the right to change specifications. Always cross-reference with your local dealer. This catalog is the baseline; superseded numbers are noted if available.

If you’re tired of fighting with mismatched parts and wasted trips to the parts counter, this is the document that fixes it. Access the Factory Manual—it’s the same 72 pages the pros use. You’ll get the exact exploded views and OEM reference numbers for your AUSA 250, 300, 350, 400, or AM. Don’t order another part without it.
