Bobcat M-562, M-662, M-562A Parts Catalog

If you’re wrenching on a Bobcat M-562, M-662, M-562A and you need the right part number for a broom shaft, a sweeper brush, or that hydraulic cushion valve on the angle broom, this is the document you want on the bench. I’ve seen too many guys order the wrong part because they trusted a third-party catalog that had the diagram flipped. This is the real factory print—Volume 3 of the Bobcat attachments Parts Catalog, covering brooms, sweepers, graders, and water kits. 245 pages. OEM number 6901461. Printed in the USA.

Volume 3 Breakdown: Brooms, Sweepers, Graders, Water Kits

This catalog doesn’t cover the whole machine—it’s specific to the attachment group listed on the cover: angle brooms, sweepers, gutter brush, whisker broom, graders, and water kits. If you need augers or buckets, check Volume 2 or Volume 5. The table of contents starts right on page 2. You get exploded-view parts diagrams for everything from the 68-inch angle broom (1727 mm) down to the hydrostatic motor on the 44-inch sweeper. Each subassembly has its own page range. For example, the angle broom hydraulic cushion valve runs pages 14 and 28. That’s how you cross-reference a worn-out part number without guessing.

Parts Breakdown for Angle Brooms and Sweepers

Let’s walk through the actual content. Under BROOMS (pages 10-79), you’ll find sections for: Angle Broom (pages 10-13 with hydraulic cushion valve, caster wheel, stabilizer, cylinder), main frame attaching parts (pages 20-21), hydraulics (page 22), core & bristle (page 23), and the separate Angle Broom 68” and 84” (pages 60-67). For sweepers (pages 80-129), there’s the 44” sweeper with its own hydrostatic motor pages 84-85, plus the 54”, 60”, and 72” sweeper brush sections (pages 98-100). If you need the sweeper main frame for the M-562 or M-562A, it’s on pages 112-113. Every part has an illustration with callouts and a part number. You don’t have to decode some aftermarket line drawing.

Why a Factory Parts Catalog Beats Aftermarket Documentation

Aftermarket catalogs often redraw the diagrams and drop subtle details like thread orientation or bracket placement. I’ve had a guy order a hydraulic cylinder for an angle broom based on a third-party book—turns out the port locations were mirrored. Cost him a week of downtime and return shipping. Factory OEM prints leave nothing to interpretation. This catalog came from Bobcat Company in 2001. The numbers match what you’ll see stamped on the casting. Trust me, when you’re pulling a sweeper hydrostatic motor and need the seal kit number, you want the factory spec. Check the related manuals: Bobcat Brooms Sweepers Graders Parts Catalog and adjacent volumes like Bobcat T3571, T3571L 2005 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Specs or Bobcat S/N 5310, S/N 5309 2005 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Specs if you need a different machine.

How to Use This Catalog for Repairs and Ordering

Before you pull a part, locate the correct section in the volume index. For example, if you’re swapping brushes on a 72” sweeper, go to SWEEPERS (page 80) then find the brush pages 98-100. Each illustration lists the part number and quantity needed. Write down the number before you call the dealer. Don’t rely on a vague description like “sweeper brush assembly”—give them the exact OEM part code. This catalog also shows subassemblies like the control valve (page 75 for whiskers broom) or the hydraulic motor (page 68-71 for angle broom). You can rebuild a unit instead of buying a whole new assembly if you have the schematic.

What You Get with 245 Pages of Factory Data

The PDF is searchable. You can jump to any section by page number. It’s not some scanned copy that went through a fax machine—this is a clean digital file from the original Bobcat publication. You get the VOLUME INDEX that lists all ten volumes so you know exactly which attachment group you’re in. Volume 3 covers brooms, sweepers, graders, and water kits (P/N 6901461). Every page is laid out with exploded views and a parts list table. I’ve used worse factory manuals from big-name car manufacturers. This one is straightforward.
