Clark-hurth 275C Parts Catalog

I’ve been wrenching for 28 years, and I’ve seen more parts catalogs than I’ve had hot dinners. The Clark-hurth 275C Parts Catalog is the real deal – 452 pages of factory-original part numbers, exploded views, and cross-references. No guesswork. No aftermarket reprints that swap a bolt size and leave you chasing threads. If you’re working on a 275C Michigan wheel loader, this is your single source for what goes where.

Engine Parts Breakdown

The Cummins 492A and 4246A engines are covered section by section. Each exploded view shows every gasket, seal, bolt, and bracket. You get the OEM part number – not a “compatible with” number. Page references are given for each major assembly. Need the timing cover gasket? It’s listed under “Engine Front Cover” with the correct Clark-hurth stamp. I’ve seen too many guys grab a generic gasket and end up with an oil leak that drips on the exhaust. Don’t be that guy.

Transmission and Drivetrain Components

Clark-hurth built their own powershift transmissions for the 275C, and this catalog has every gear, shaft, bearing, and seal laid out. You’ll find the torque converter section, clutch packs, and planetary gears. The manual gives you the exact part numbers for the friction discs and steel plates. If you’re rebuilding a transmission, cross-check the serial number range – the catalog covers early and late builds. No aftermarket catalog does that with factory authority.

Hydraulic System Parts

Hydraulics on a wheel loader take a beating. This catalog breaks down the main pump, control valves, cylinders, and hoses. Each cylinder gets its own exploded view with seal kits listed by part number. You’ll see the O-ring sizes, backup rings, wiper seals – all factory spec. For the main control valve, the spool and spring identification is right there. No need to disassemble and hope you remember the order. The catalog also lists the priority valve and steering components. If you’ve ever rebuilt a steering cylinder with mismatched seals, you know the pain. This manual prevents that.

Electrical System Components

Electrical parts – alternators, starters, sensors, switches – are all cataloged with their Clark-hurth numbers. The wiring harness illustrations show connector locations and wire colors. You can trace a faulty ground or a shorted wire using the factory diagrams. The 275C used Deutz or Bosch components depending on the build date; the catalog notes the differences. Don’t trust a parts counter guy who says “these are all the same.” This catalog proves they’re not.

Source Validity: OEM vs Aftermarket

Aftermarket parts catalogs are a crapshoot. I’ve seen them list a part that doesn’t exist or swap numbers because the editor was lazy. Internal Combustion Engine”>Internal combustion engines have tight tolerances; a wrong bearing part can wipe a crank. This Clark-hurth 275C Parts Catalog is original OEM print. The part numbers match the factory bins. The exploded views are scanned from the original lithographs – not redrawn by some intern. If you value your time and your machine, you buy OEM documents. Period. Clark-hurth L320 1991 Parts Catalog – 690 Pages OEM Specs”>See the L320 parts catalog for a similar loader family.

Audience Fit: Who Needs This

DIY mechanics who own a 275C and want to order the right parts without the dealer markup. Shop owners who need a reference for their techs. Fleet managers who maintain multiple loaders. Beginners should pair this catalog with a service manual – this is not a repair guide, it’s a parts ID book. You’ll still need torque specs and procedures from the service manual. But if you’re tearing down a transmission, you need this catalog to order the correct overhaul kit. I’ve had guys call me asking why their rebuilt axle leaks – they used the wrong seal because they guessed the part number. This catalog ends that.

7 Sections That Make Life Easier

The catalog is organized into logical groups: Engine, Transmission, Torque Converter, Drive Axles, Steering, Hydraulics, and Electrical. Each section has a parts list with illustration callouts. The index at the back lets you look up any part number and find its page. 452 pages, factory binding, printed on heavy paper. This isn’t a PDF that you’ll lose in a folder – get the physical copy or access the high-res scan from AutoRepairManuals.

FAQ

Does this catalog include torque specifications?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Torque values, clearance specs, and repair procedures are in the separate service manual. This catalog gives you part numbers and exploded views only.

Will this cover my 275C with a Cummins 492A?

Yes. The catalog covers both the 492A and 4246A engine options. Machine serial numbers are listed on the first page – check your serial against IC11830SPR840 range.

Can I use this to identify parts on a 275C built after 1980?

The catalog covers early production runs. If your machine has a later serial number, some parts may have superseded numbers. Clark-hurth issued updates, but this base catalog covers the majority of components.

How do I know a part number is still available?

This catalog does not indicate current availability. Use the part number to search Clark-hurth dealer inventory or aftermarket suppliers. Some numbers may be obsolete, but cross-reference to superseded numbers.
