Bobcat M-562, M562A, M-662 Parts Catalog – Volume 3: Brooms, Sweepers, Graders & Water Kits

You are staring at a sweeper main frame from a Bobcat M-562, and the part number has worn off. You could call the dealer and hope they have a 20-year-old catalog. Or you could pull the Bobcat M-562, M562A, M-662 Parts Catalog from the shelf and point to the exact drawing. I have seen too many guys order the wrong brush drive assembly because they guessed at the hydraulic motor model. This is Volume 3 of the Bobcat Attachments Parts Manual – covers the angle brooms, sweepers, graders, and water kits for the M-562, M562A, and M-662. 245 pages. Printed by Bobcat, not some aftermarket outfit that reprints blurry scans with wrong page numbers.

Volume 3 splits into four major sections: Brooms (pages 10–79), Sweepers (pages 80–129), Graders (pages 130–178), and Water Kits (pages 180–191). Each section has exploded-view drawings with Bobcat part numbers, not generic equivalents. If you need a hydraulic cushion valve for the angle broom, you flip to page 14. If the grader blade tilt cylinder on your M-662 is leaking, the parts breakdown is on pages 136–137. That is what factory documentation does – it saves you the 45-minute phone hold with parts distribution.

Sweeper Main Frame for M-562 & M562A – Pages 112-113

Your M-562 sweeper has a cracked main frame. Without the factory diagram, you are guessing at which bracket bolts to what. Page 112 shows the complete main frame assembly for the M-562 and M562A – every bushing, every weldment, every bolt. Page 113 covers the blower and brush drive. The M-662 version is on pages 116-117, with a different brush drive layout. Do not mix them up. The blower motor mount is not the same. This is why you buy the catalog that matches your machine serial number range. That level of detail is missing from a third-party parts list.

What Does the Grader Section Include?

Graders run pages 130 through 178. You get the main frame, hydraulic circuitry, tilt cylinders, relief valve, and the scarifier assembly. The Bobcat Grader section (pages 138-141) includes controls electrical on pages 146-151. If you have a grader with serial number 802700335 and above, the hydraulic circuitry is different starting on page 142. The Econo Grader is separate – main frame on pages 170-171, tire mount on pages 174-175. See the difference? One catalog, multiple variants. That is what OEM means. The Automotive Industry Overview on Wikipedia mentions how manufacturers maintain separate part numbers for different serial breaks. This catalog does exactly that.

3 Key Attachments Covered in This Catalog

• Angle Brooms – 68-inch, 84-inch, 1600/2000/2400 series, plus industrial brooms and whiskers push broom. Hydraulic motor breakdown on pages 68-71.
• Sweepers – 44-inch, 54-inch, 60-inch, 72-inch, plus gutter brush. Hydrostatic motor exploded views for M-562 and M-662 are separate.
• Water Kits – Quick-Tach water kit for 740/750 models, plus nozzle spray kit on pages 186-189. Page 180 shows the tank bracket that everybody strips the threads on.

Each attachment has its own numbered parts listing in the Numerical Index (pages 192-222). You can cross-reference any part number across all attachments. That index alone saves you from ordering a 740-series water kit bracket for an M-662 sweeper. I worked with a kid last month who tried to reuse a hydraulic line because he thought it was standard. The factory diagram showed a different banjo fitting. He ordered the right part in ten minutes.

Why OEM Parts Beat Aftermarket Catalogs

Aftermarket catalogs often combine multiple models into one generic drawing with a note that says “may vary.” This Bobcat Parts Catalog prints specific illustrations for the M-562 and M562A together (pages 112-115) and the M-662 separately (pages 116-121). The brush drive hydraulic motor for the M-562 is a different part number than the M-662. Page 123 shows the brush drive motor; page 128 shows the gutter brush motor. A generic catalog would list one motor for both. Then you get the wrong spline count and your sweeper sits in the yard for a week. That is not a guess – that is my Monday morning every other month.

If you want to see how proper documentation affects repair times, check the Automotive Industry Overview for context on OEM standards. Then buy the manual that follows those standards.

Check the Hydraulic Motor Specs Before You Order

Page 84 shows the hydrostatic motor for the 44-inch sweeper. Page 102-105 covers the sweeper hydrostatic motor for 54/60/72-inch sweepers – different displacement. If you have the M-662 sweeper, the blower and brush drive is on pages 120-121. The hydraulic motor part number is cast into the housing, but only if you know where to look. The catalog shows the orientation. I have seen a guy order three motors before he realized the mounting flange rotated 90 degrees on the newer serial break. Do not be that guy. Pull the page, read the part number suffix, call the dealer.

Water Kit (Quick-Tach) – Nozzle Spray Kit Details

Water kit pages 180-191 cover the Quick-Tach systems for 740/750 models, plus a general water kit assembly and a nozzle spray kit. Page 182 shows the water tank with mounting straps. The nozzle spray kit on pages 186-189 includes the check valve, fittings, and spray tips. If you are retrofitting a water kit onto an older M-562, the frame brackets may be different from the M-662. Page 180 has the specific 740/750 version; page 184 shows the universal kit. Do not mix them up – the pump bracket bolt spacing changed after serial number 648000101. The catalog points that out in the drawing callout notes.

FAQ – Bobcat M-562, M562A, M-662 Parts Catalog

Can I use this parts catalog for a Bobcat M-560?

No. This manual covers M-562, M562A, and M-662 attachments only. The M-560 has different sweeper frame geometry and different hydraulic motor part numbers. You need the correct catalog for your model.

Does this catalog include torque specs for assembly?

It is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It shows exploded views and part numbers, not torque values. For torque specs, you need the Bobcat service manual for the base machine and the attachment. This catalog tells you which bolt to order, not how tight to turn it.

How do I find a part number for an angle broom bristle section?

Go to the Angle Broom section starting page 10. The core and bristle breakdown is on page 23. The part numbers for the 68-inch and 84-inch brooms are listed separately. Use the Numerical Index on page 192 to cross-reference any Bobcat part number in this volume.

Is this the same manual as the operator’s handbook?

No. The operator’s handbook tells you how to operate the machine. This parts catalog is for ordering replacement parts. Two different documents. You need both if you are maintaining the equipment. The operator’s handbook does not have exploded drawings or part numbers.

Look, I have been in this business since before most of these machines were built. When a broom attachment hydraulic motor fails, you want the drawing that matches your serial number. You want the part number that Bobcat stamped on the casting. Aftermarket reprints guess at dimensions. This catalog does not guess. If you need the right part numbers and exploded diagrams for your Bobcat attachments, access the factory manual from AutoRepairManuals. Keep it on the bench next to the coffee cup.
