Clark-hurth 275B, 3176 Parts Catalog

You’ve got a Clark-hurth 275B or a 3176 tractor shovel in the bay, and the customer’s waiting. Someone handed you a third‑party parts list with blurry scans and mismatched numbers. That’s not going to cut it. This is the Parts Catalog from Clark Equipment Company – Construction Machinery Division, Benton Harbor, Michigan. 386 pages of factory‑authorized part numbers, exploded views, and serial‑number breakdowns for Cummins 425D and G.M. 479A engines. No guesswork. No aftermarket reprints. Just the same book the dealer’s parts counter relies on.

Why a Factory Parts Catalog Matters on the Job

A parts catalog isn’t a repair manual. You don’t get torque specs or service intervals. What you get are the exact OEM numbers for every bearing, seal, hose, and hydraulic component on the 275B and 3176. I’ve watched guys spend an hour chasing a part number because some online database listed the wrong brake piston. With this catalog, you flip to the section for your machine’s serial range, cross‑reference the exploded view, and pull the number. Done. It’s the difference between ordering the correct steering valve the first time and having the machine sit dead for three days waiting for the wrong part to go back.

3176 and 275B: What’s Inside the 386 Pages

This document covers both the 3176 and the 275B tractor shovel models. The front matter includes a warranty statement – yes, it’s printed – but the real meat is the parts breakdown. Each major assembly (transmission, final drive, axle, hydraulic system, cab, etc.) gets its own section with cross‑referenced part numbers. You need a seal for the torque converter? It’s in there. Looking for the mounting bolts for the loader arm pivot? They’re listed with thread size and quantity. The catalog also includes serial number breaks – for example, the Cummins 425D and G.M. 479A variants have different drivetrain parts. Without this document, you’re flying blind.

Using the Parts Catalog for Repair Orders

When a customer brings in a 275B for a hydraulic pump replacement, you need to know which pump assembly corresponds to the machine’s serial number. This catalog groups parts by serial range, so you’re not ordering a pump meant for an earlier build. Write the serial down – the manual even has a line on page 1 for you to record it. Then match it to the exploded view. It’s that direct. Pair this catalog with a service manual for the torque specs, and you’ve got a complete work‑bench solution. For related models, check the Clark Michigan 275B Tractor Shovel Parts Manual No. 3198 if you need a different revision, or the Clark-hurth L320 1991 Parts Catalog – 690 Pages OEM Specs for a larger frame. The Clark-hurth 85III 1965 Parts Catalog – Factory OEM Specs covers an earlier series if that’s your fleet.

Torque Specs? Not Here – But Here’s What You Get

This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Don’t expect torque values, fluid capacities, or adjustment procedures. If you need those, grab the factory service manual for the 275B or 3176. What this manual gives you is the authoritative part reference. Every fastener, gasket, and hydraulic component is identified with the OEM number. Need to order a new steering cylinder? You’ll find the assembly number, the rebuild kit number, and the individual seal numbers. It’s the kind of document that pays for itself the first time you avoid a return shipping charge on a misidentified part. For broader context on heavy equipment documentation standards, the Automotive Industry Overview discusses how OEM catalogs reduce downtime. And if you’re curious about the engines used here, the Internal Combustion Engine page covers the fundamentals.

Clark-hurth OEM Documentation vs Aftermarket Reprints

I’ve had techs walk in with a “factory style” PDF they bought for twenty bucks. Half the numbers were wrong because some re‑scanner aliased the part indexes. This book is the real deal – original Clark Equipment Company print, scanned from the actual manual. The warranty page, the serial‑number recording line, the part number columns – everything matches the paper original. You won’t find a better source for 275B or 3176 parts, period.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this manual list torque specs for the 275B cylinder head?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Torque values are in the factory service manual.

How do I tell if I have a Cummins 425D or G.M. 479A variant in my 3176?

Check the engine data plate on the block. The serial number breakpoint is given on page 1 of the catalog. For example, the Cummins variant appears between certain serial ranges; the G.M. variant uses different hydraulic pump mounting brackets. The manual lists separate part numbers for each engine family. If you can’t find the plate, match the pump configuration to the exploded view in the “Hydraulic System” section. Many aftermarket catalogs combine engine variants into one generic listing, leading to wrong parts. This catalog separates them by serial number, so you order correctly the first time.
