Clark-hurth 175 III Parts Catalog

Aftermarket parts catalogs are garbage. I burned an entire Saturday once because some third-party listing had the wrong hydraulic pump part number for a 175 III. Lost the job, ticked off the customer. This Clark-hurth 175 III Parts Catalog is the real deal—236 pages of exploded views and factory part numbers straight from the OCR scan you see above. Every section matches the original printed manual from Clark Equipment. If you’re rebuilding a Michigan Tractor Shovel, you need this on your bench, not some PDF cobbled together from internet forums.

Look at the index. It starts with Engine accessories on page 1 and runs all the way to Cab wiring. No generic drawings. Every assembly is drawn with the exact bolt, seal, and bracket you need.

One paragraph that proves the value: The Brake section—page 88 shows the front and rear brake assembly, and the air system routing is broken out across pages 93-95 with individual part numbers for the air brake valve, chambers, slack adjusters, and lines. You can match that to your machine serial number (listed on page 1 for 175 III Cummins and G.M. models). That level of specificity is why you don’t guess.

Engine Accessories and Beyond (Page 1)

Engine accessories listed include the alternator, belts, air compressor, and bypass filter. But the manual doesn’t stop at the block—it cross-references the entire drivetrain. For example, the torque converter air breather and check valve appear on pages 49-61, with their own part breakdowns. Aftermarket catalogs merge these into one generic “transmission” section and leave you with the wrong part.

Brake Assembly: Front and Rear (Page 88)

Brake assembly drawings show every component separately: air chambers (pages 67, 69, 73, 77), slack adjusters, pedals, and controls. The air brake valve on page 91 is exploded with its diaphragm and return spring. If you need a brake part, you find it here—no need to call your distributor and hope.

Valve Assemblies: Air Brake and Controls (Page 91)

Valves are scattered through the manual, but the air brake valve gets its own page. The transmission air breather valve is on page 43. The torque converter check valve is in the Torque Converter section. This catalog keeps them separate because they are separate systems. Aftermarket catalogs throw them together—you end up ordering a brake valve when you need a converter breather.

Torque Converter Components (Pages 49-61)

Torque converter parts get twelve pages. Air breather, check valve, and the housing seals. If you’re overhauling the converter, you can order every O-ring and gasket from these pages. No need to buy a whole assembly. This is where the OEM manual pays for itself in one job.

Transmission Air Breather and More (Page 43)

Transmission components are spread across the catalog, but the air breather and its hose are on page 43. The transmission section also ties into the bucket and boom hydraulic system (pages 121-135). Knowing the exact part number for a transmission seal saves you from a second teardown when the aftermarket one leaks.

Internal Combustion Engine basics apply here too, but this manual gets into the specific engine accessories for your 175 III. If you want a broader context on how these systems work, check the Automotive Industry Overview.

Does this Parts Catalog include torque specifications for bolts?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It lists part numbers and exploded views for ordering. For torque specs, you need the factory service manual. Many guys confuse the two and end up overtightening a seal housing.

How do I know which brake chamber part number fits my 175 III?

Start on page 88 for the brake assembly overview. Then cross-reference your machine serial number (from page 1) with the air chamber drawings on pages 67, 69, 73, and 77. Each page lists the part number for the specific chamber assembly, including the diaphragm. The manual covers 175 III models with Cummins and GM engines, serial ranges 5HC101-6HC999 and 5HG101-7HG999. If your serial falls within those, the part numbers on those pages are correct for your machine. No guessing.
