Clark Equipment 310 Parts Catalog

Clark Equipment 310 Parts Catalog – if you’re turning wrenches on a Michigan 310 tractor scraper, you need the actual factory parts list. Not a reprint someone scanned off a greasy copy. I’ve seen too many guys order a “brake slack adjuster” from a generic parts book and get the wrong thread pitch. This catalog is printed from the original Clark Equipment Company manual. 112 pages of exploded views, part numbers, and assembly breakdowns. That’s the difference between a job that goes together and a parts shotgun.

Let me tell you what you’re buying. This is the genuine Parts Manual No. 1764 for the Model 310 tractor scraper (tractor section). It covers machine serial numbers 3VG101 through 3VG999. Every part listed in the index maps to a page – the Brake assemblies, the Valve components, the axle housings. It’s organized alphabetically by component name, so you can find what you need without flipping through fifty pages of torque converter parts. The index starts with “Accelerator Pedal and Linkage” and ends with “Transmission Mount.” No fluff, no third-party interpretation.

Brake and Valve Components: Page 1 Coverage

Right on page 1 of the index, you’ll see entries for “Brake Valve, Air” and “Air Brake Valve.” That’s not a typo – there are multiple valve assemblies on this machine. The catalog lists the Air Brake Valve as a separate item from the Brake Valve, Air (page 58). You also get the Brake Air Chamber, Brake Controls, Parking Brake Assembly, and the Slack Adjuster. If you’ve ever had to chase a wandering brake system on a scraper, you know the value of having an OEM diagram that shows exactly which valve connects to which air line. This catalog does that. The exploded view on page 1 (if your machine falls in the serial range) shows the entire brake control layout, including the threaded connections.

Does This Parts Catalog Include Exploded Diagrams?

Yes. Each major assembly – like the Air Cleaner, Torque Converter, Transmission – has an exploded drawing with callouts pointing to part numbers. For example, the Air Cleaner section breaks down into the cap, connections, and element (pages 1-7). The Brake Assembly – Front is shown on page 55 with the wheel drum, shoes, and adjuster listed individually. No aftermarket parts catalog gives you that level of detail. The drawings are line-art from the original Clark print, not photoshopped reprints. You can read the part numbers without a magnifying glass.

Ordering the Right Parts: What the Index Tells You

When you open this manual, the first thing you’ll hit is the index – a straight alphabetical list from A to Y (Yoke, Bowl Cylinder). Each line has a page number. Want the Front Drive Planet Carrier Assembly? Page 53. Need the Transmission Oil Filter? Page 43. The PSI gauge sender unit? Page 83. That’s how you avoid calling the distributor and guessing. You give them the part number from the catalog, they pull it off the shelf. No returns, no restocking fees. The manual also includes vital notes like “Always furnish the distributor with the machine serial number when ordering parts.” That’s printed right on page 3 of the original manual. Heed that.

112 Pages of OEM Part Numbers

One hundred and twelve pages. That’s not a skimpy supplement. It covers everything from the Cab Assembly (page 89) down to the Glow Plug (not listed but if it were, it’d be in the engine section). The steering system filter, the hydraulic oil reservoir dipstick, the glass pattern kit for the cab – all accounted for. I’ve used these catalogs to track down a Valve lever linkage that had been superseded twice. Without the original part number, you’d be chasing ghosts. With this, you order the correct updated part. The Automotive Industry Overview might give you background on manufacturing, but this catalog gives you the specific numbers that keep a 310 moving.

Air Brake Valve: Finding the Correct Replacement

Look up “Air Brake Valve” in the index – it’s on page 1 and again on page 58. One is the valve assembly, the other might be a sub-component. The catalog lists the Horn Valve separately on page 57, and the Check Valve on the same page. If you’re replacing the brake valve, you need to know which one is the foot pedal valve and which is the relay. The exploded drawing on page 58 shows the mounting bracket, the air ports, and the plunger details. Without this, you might bolt on a valve from a different Clark model and end up with a brake that locks or leaks. I’ve seen it happen. Don’t be that guy.

Related manuals that pair with this parts catalog: Clark Equipment 310, 310III Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Manual covers the later serial run. For the scraper body section, you’ll want Clark Equipment 75B 1989 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Manual if you’re working on a 75B. And Clark Equipment 12E2E 1968 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Manual is good for the older steerable scraper models. Also check the Automotive Industry Overview for general context on heavy equipment timelines, but the real work gets done with these factory books.

Can I use this parts catalog to rebuild the torque converter?

No. This is a parts identification manual – it shows exploded views and part numbers for ordering, but does not include service procedures, torque specs, or overhaul steps. You need the corresponding service manual for that. This catalog gets you the right parts for the converter housing and charging pump.

What if my machine serial number is outside 3VG101-3VG999?

Then this catalog may still be useful for reference, but some parts might differ. Clark often made running changes. Check the later parts catalogs for your serial range – [LINK_ID_REL_0] covers the 310III which may include updates.

Bottom line: if you maintain a Michigan Model 310 tractor scraper, this Clark Equipment 310 Parts Catalog is the single source for factory-correct part numbers. No aftermarket reprint, no generic drawings. Access the Factory Manual now and stop piecing together guesses.
