Clark-hurth 125C 1985 Parts Catalog – Factory OEM Specs for Tractor Shovel

If you are keeping a Clark-hurth 125C 1985 Parts Catalog in your shop, you already know how expensive wrong parts get. I have seen guys order a transmission seal three times because they used an aftermarket cross-reference that skipped the supersession. That stops the moment you open this 256-page factory book. Page 1 shows your serial number range (4239B-107 BRC and after) so you know this fits your machine.

What the 125C Parts Catalog Actually Contains

This is not a reprint or a compiled PDF. It is the original Clark-hurth 1985 Parts Catalog, PM-173-M, shipped from the factory floor. The whole thing is organized by group numbers: drivetrain, hydraulics, steering, brakes, and the rest. Each group starts with an exploded view that lines up every washer, seal, and gear with a callout number. Below that you get the part number, description, and quantity per machine. You do not guess. You look, you order, you install.

Why Factory Clark-hurth Specs Matter

Aftermarket parts catalogs copy the hard stuff wrong. I have pulled up aftermarket listings for a 125C that showed the wrong pinion bearing because they mixed up two revisions. Clark-hurth updates their parts catalog with every engineering change. This edition includes all revisions up to 1985. When you match a part number from this book to what you have on the shelf, you know the fit is correct. No modifications. No returns.

Using Exploded Views to Find the Right Part

Flip open to any system group. You see the assembly drawn with each piece numbered. Next to the drawing is a table with the part number and description. You need a brake piston for the service brakes? Find the brake group, identify the piston in the drawing, and the part number is right there. Write it down. Order it. Done. The catalog also lists optional and alternate parts with their own callouts. That matters when you have a later serial number machine and need the updated part.

3 Reasons to Buy the OEM Catalog Instead of Aftermarket

1. Accuracy – Every part number in this 256-page document was verified by Clark-hurth engineers. Aftermarket catalogs often omit the ”-M” suffix or misplace a digit.
2. Completeness – All 256 pages are present. Aftermarket versions sometimes skip a group to save paper. You pay for the whole manual, you get the whole manual.
3. Traceability – The serial number application on page 1 tells you exactly which machines this catalog covers. Aftermarket catalogs lump serial ranges together and you end up with a part that doesn’t fit.

Who Needs This 256-Page Document

If you run a shop that services Clark-hurth 125C tractor shovels, you need this. If you own one or two machines and want to order your own parts without paying dealer markups, you need this. Even if you are a collector restoring an old loader, this catalog saves you the headache of chasing obsolete numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the same as a service manual?

No. This is a parts catalog for ordering parts. You still need a service manual for procedures.

Can I use this to rebuild my transmission?

You can identify every part with exploded views and part numbers. You will still need a service manual for procedures. The part numbers are factory-correct, which cuts down on ordering errors.

What years does this cover?

1985, serial 4239B-107 BRC and after. Check your serial number.

How many pages?

256 pages, full factory specs. No missing pages. That is important because one missing page could be the seal kit you need. I have seen aftermarket parts catalogs that omit entire sections. This one is complete.

Stop guessing part numbers. Access the Factory Manual and get the correct Clark-hurth parts for your 125C. Every page is the real deal – no scans, no aftermarket conversions. Just the factory book your machine deserves.
