Case 155, 195 1972 Parts Catalog

If you’re working on a Case 155, 195 1972 Parts Catalog tractor and you’re chasing down a part number from a third-party list, stop. I’ve seen guys order a camshaft seal off a generic website, get it wrong, and then spend a full afternoon with the tractor split open waiting on the right one. This catalog – original factory print, 1972, 31 pages – is what you pull out when you need the exact number. Not a reprint that crops out the grid reference. Not a scanned PDF with missing pages. The original OEM document. Automotive Industry Overview

Why You Need the OEM Parts Catalog

Aftermarket catalogs love to list a single part number for a cylinder head gasket that covers four different serial numbers. On the Case 155 (prior to S/N 9615882) and Case 195 (prior to S/N 9620622), the brake system changed after those cutoffs. This catalog explicitly calls out the serial break and points you to a separate catalog for disk brakes. That detail saves you from buying a wheel cylinder that doesn’t fit. The alphabetical index at the front lets you jump straight to the section – no flipping through generic chapter headers.

Engine Section Breakdown: Camshaft to Crankshaft

You want the Camshaft? Page 7, grid A8. Crankshaft and connecting rods are on pages 9-11, grids A10-A12. The Cylinder block and Cylinder head live on pages 13-15, grids A14-B2, along with the flywheel, oil pan, and gasket kits. Every part is shown in an exploded view – no guessing where that thrust washer goes. The Electrical system section (pages 51-53, grids D10-D12) covers the battery, spark plug, headlights, and instruments. If your Case 195 has a dead short, you can trace the starter-generator belt and wiring from page 25, grid B12.

Grid System and Exploded Views: How to Read It

Each page has a grid overlay: A through D across the top, numbers down the side. Look up “Hydraulics – Pump” and it says page 39, grid C12. Flip to page 39, find C12, and there’s the pump with a reference number. That reference number lines up to the part number, description, and quantity in the columns. I can’t tell you how many hours this grid system has saved me on a dirty workbench with greasy fingers. Automotive Industry Overview

Is This the Right Manual for Your Case 155 or 195?

Check your serial number. This catalog covers Model 155 prior to S/N 9615882 and Model 195 prior to S/N 9620622. If you’ve got a tractor after those numbers with disk brakes, you need Catalog No. A997. The note on page 1 is clear. Don’t ignore it. The manual also covers machines equipped with the Hi-Liter 1000 attachment – the 10-72 date stamp on the cover confirms the edition. It’s the right one for 1972 production tractors.

Source Authenticity: Factory Print vs Aftermarket Copies

I’ve held aftermarket parts catalogs that list the wrong Camshaft part number for a Case 155. Then you order it, it doesn’t fit, and the supplier says “well, that’s what the book says.” This is the book the dealer used. It’s Case Publication No. 989, printed October 1972. The exploded illustrations are exact – they show the orientation of the Crankshaft keyway and the bolt pattern on the Cylinder head.

What You Get: 31 Pages of Factory Data

31 pages. Every major group is covered: Engine section (air cleaner through valves), Basic Tractor section (axles, hydraulics, transmission, steering, wheels, decals, fenders, frame, hood, grille, hitch, seat, tool box, wheel weights). The hydraulic section alone spans pages 35-41 with control valves, pump drive coupling, hoses, and the hydraulic drive motor. If you need to rebuild the lift cylinder, you’ve got the part numbers.

Does this manual include torque specifications for the cylinder head?

This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It does not list torque values or assembly procedures.

Can I use this for a Case 446 or 448 tractor?

No. This catalog is specifically for the Case 155 and 195 models within the stated serial number ranges. Different models use different parts.

Are the exploded views detailed enough to identify small parts like camshaft thrust washers?

Yes. The exploded views show every individual part with a reference number. The camshaft section on page 7 includes the gear, key, and thrust plate. You’ll see the exact orientation of each piece. The grid index (A8) makes it fast to locate. If you’re rebuilding the top end, cross-reference the cylinder head section on pages 13-15 to confirm valve and spring part numbers. I’ve used this catalog to identify a missing oil seal that a generic parts list simply omitted.

Does the electrical section have wiring diagrams?

No wiring diagrams. The electrical section lists the battery, spark plug, headlights, starter-generator, and instruments – not the circuit paths. For wiring, you’d need the factory service manual.

That’s what the catalog does. Factory part numbers, exploded views, grid layout, and serial number cuts. If you’re tired of chasing bad aftermarket references, this is the document you need on your bench. Access the Factory Manual and get the right part the first time.
