Case 220, 222, 444, 442 Parts Catalog

Wasted an afternoon ordering the wrong crankshaft for a Case 220, 222, 444, 442 Parts Catalog rebuild? I have seen guys pull a piston, measure it with a caliper, then order a part that does not fit because the casting number changed mid-production. This is a 47-page factory parts catalog, not a reprint from some third-party that scanned a photocopy of a photocopy. It tells you exactly which part number goes with which serial number range. For the 220 (S/N 9646801 to 9656747), the 222 (S/N 9646801 to 9658189), the 442 (S/N 9646801 to 9667000), and the 444 (S/N 9648801 to 9661261), the serial number breaks are printed on page 1. You do not get that from aftermarket sites that list one part for all years.

Engine Section Breakdown: Camshaft to Crankshaft

Flip to the ENGINE SECTION. You get a grid reference system – page numbers and coordinates (e.g., A6, B12) that lead you to the exact illustration. Need the camshaft? It is on page 7, grid A8. Crankshaft and connecting rod assembly? Pages 11-15, grids A12 to B2. Cylinder block and cylinder head are grouped on pages 17-21 (B4-B8), and they include gasket kits and the oil pan in the same spread. That means you can order the Camshaft, Crankshaft, Cylinder block components, and gaskets all at once without cross-referencing separate diagrams. The Electrical section (pages 63-65, E10-E12) covers the battery, spark plug, tail lamp, and starter-generator. If you are chasing a no-crank condition, those grid numbers save thirty minutes of flipping.

Does This Catalog Cover the Electrical System?

Yes – but with a catch. The Electrical section is part of the BASIC TRACTOR SECTION. It lists the battery (page 63, E10), the starter-generator (page 61, E8), and the tail lamp (page 63, E10). The engine-side electrical (spark plug, belt for the starter-generator) is in the ENGINE SECTION. So if you need a starter-generator belt, you look on page 25 (grid B12). If you need the whole starter-generator assembly, page 61. The catalog uses a two-index system: a front alphabetical index and a rear numerical index by part number. That is how you cross-check. Do not rely on aftermarket sites that show one photo for all four models – the 444 has a different hydraulic pump than the 220, and the catalog shows it with separate part numbers.

3 Reasons to Use OEM Parts Catalogs Instead of Aftermarket Lists

First, aftermarket parts lists often group the 220 and 222 together even though the 222 uses a different camshaft after a certain serial number. Second, aftermarket sites do not show the hydraulic control valve linkage (page 51, D10) with the correct spring orientation – the factory diagram does. Third, the OEM catalog includes NSS (Not Sold Separately) and UAR (Use As Required) notations. When a part is marked NSS, you know to buy the assembly, not struggle with a loose bolt you cannot order. You do not get that from a generic parts website.

Get the Right Part Numbers from the Alphabetical Index

Do not flip randomly. The alphabetical index (pages 1-2) lists every major group in alphabetical order: “Air Cleaner” goes to page 5 grid A6, “Brakes” to page 43 grid D2, “Hydraulics” spans pages 31-49 (C4-D8) with sub-sections for pump, motor, control valve, and hoses. If you need the hydraulic lift (Model H30), it is on page 71 (F4). The index also covers optional attachments like the Model H17 PTO (pages 81B-81D, G2-G4) and the three-point hitch adapter (Model H27, page 75 F8). One pass through the index and you have every part number for the job.

Hydraulics and PTO: Factory Diagrams with Grid Locations

The hydraulics section is dense. It includes the pump (pages 49-51, D8-D10), the control valve (pages 53-53B, D12-D14), the hydraulic drive motor (pages 55-57, E2-E4), and the hoses, lines, and fittings (page 49, D8). The diagrams show hose routing – critical when you are replacing a blown line and do not remember which port goes where. For the PTO, the Model H17 has its own subsection (pages 81B-81D, G2-G4) with the clutch pulley and engagement linkage. Without the factory grid reference, you risk ordering a pump for a 442 that only fits a 444. The catalog shows each model’s specific parts with its own line item.

The rear index (page 2 of the catalog) lists every part number numerically and tells you which page and grid it appears on. That is the fastest way to confirm a part number if you have the old part in hand. Write down the number, find it in the index, and you are done.

Working on a 442 that came in with a seized engine? The cylinder block and attaching parts section (pages 17-21, B4-B8) includes the gasket kits. Order the Camshaft from page 7, the Crankshaft from pages 11-15, and the piston assemblies from the same spread. The parts catalog does not tell you how to install them – that is what the service manual is for – but it does give you the correct part numbers so you do not end up with a 220 piston in a 444 bore.

Automotive Industry Overview – not that you need background, but the fact that this catalog was printed by Case (original issue C1181, replaced by D1181) means the drawings and part numbers were verified against the actual production line. No aftermarket house redrew these. Automotive Industry Overview

Can I order parts directly from this catalog?

Yes. Each part has a Case part number. Take it to your dealer or enter it into an online parts system.

Does the catalog include torque specs or repair procedures?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It shows exploded views and part numbers only. You need the separate service manual for assembly torque values.

Will this catalog work for a 446 or a 448?

No. It is specific to the 220, 222, 442, and 444 models within the serial ranges printed on page 1. The 446 and 448 use different transmissions and hydraulics.

What if my serial number falls outside the listed ranges?

Case updated the catalog with a new issue (D1181 replaced C1181). The serial ranges on page 1 are for this edition. If your machine is later, you need the next catalog revision.

If you already have the parts catalog, the next step is the factory service manual for tear-down specs. Stop wasting time with aftermarket databases that show a generic picture. Access the Factory Manual – the actual OEM PDF – and get the part numbers that match your tractor’s serial number.
