Deutz Fahr 5690 Parts Catalog: Get the Right Parts the First Time

Ordering parts for a Deutz Fahr 5690 chopper setup? You’ve probably had that moment – new knife doesn’t match the bolt pattern, or the V-belt you ordered is half an inch short. Waste of time and money. This is the Deutz Fahr 5690 Parts Catalog – the actual factory document that tells you exactly which part number goes where. 32 pages. That’s it. But those 32 pages cover every component of the straw chopper system, from the knives to the chaff spreader. No guessing – you see the exploded diagram, the reference number, and the Deutz Fahr part number. That’s direct from the manufacturer.

Deutz Fahr 5690 Parts Catalog: What’s Inside the 32-Page Index

On page 1 you get a complete index covering all sections – KNIVES (4U.36.1), V-BELT (4U.36.2), and then fourteen different KPAB‑straw chopper subassemblies. Each section has its own exploded view with part numbers. If you need the basis frame, distributor box, guide rollers, deflector sheets, or vee belt clutch, it’s all listed. The catalog also separates standard from SRX‑only components, so you don’t mix them up.

Knives (4U.36.1) and V-Belt (4U.36.2): Critical Wear Items

These two sections are the most‑used pages in the catalog. The knife diagram shows each blade with its OEM code – no more comparing tooth counts by eye. The V‑belt section gives you the exact cross‑section and length as specified by Deutz Fahr. Aftermarket belt suppliers change dimensions; the factory number stays the same. Order the part listed under 4U.36.2 and you’re done.

KPAB-Straw Chopper Subassemblies: 14 Sections for Complete System

From the basis frame (4U.36.102) to the deflector sheets (4U.36.107) and the vee belt clutch (4U.36.108), the catalog breaks down every assembly. There are even separate sections for the SRX‑only variants (4U.36.109 through 4U.36.115). If your machine has the SRX option, you need the specific parts list, not a generic one. The index on page 1 makes it easy to jump to the right page. Using the wrong part on an SRX chopper can throw off the clutch engagement or misalign the distributor box – that’s a safety risk.

Does This Catalog Cover the Chaff Spreader Heuling Variant?

Yes. Sections 4U.36.116 through 4U.36.122 cover the chaff spreader assemblies, including the Heuling variant. Each of those sections has its own exploded view. So if you’re replacing the spreader or just sourcing a bearing, the part number is right there. The Heuling versions are clearly marked in the index, so you won’t accidentally order a standard spreader for a Heuling machine.

3 Reasons to Use Factory Parts Lists Over Aftermarket Reproductions

Aftermarket catalogs often merge multiple models into one diagram, or they show a generic version that doesn’t match your serial number. This is the actual Deutz Fahr publication – every part number starts with 4U.36.x, the authentic coding. When you order a knife with the correct OEM number, you don’t have to modify it to fit. That saves labor and frustration. Reason number two: the exploded views show how parts fit together, so you can see if a bolt, spacer, or clip is missing. Number three: the catalog is only 32 pages – it doesn’t waste your time with irrelevant content. You get exactly the chopper system and nothing else.

In the broader context of the Automotive Industry Overview, knowing exact part numbers is critical. For more background, see the Automotive Industry Overview.

Is this a service manual or a parts catalog?

Parts catalog only. It lists parts, not repair steps.

Does it include part numbers for the knives?

Yes, section 4U.36.1 lists each knife with its OEM number. You’ll see the diagram and the corresponding part code.

Can I use this for a 5690 with SRX chopper?

Absolutely. The catalog has dedicated sections for SRX-only components, starting at 4U.36.109 through 4U.36.115. These cover the basis frame, distributor box, regulation, mounting frame, deflector sheets, and vee belt clutch specifically for the SRX variant. If your machine has that option, you should reference those sections to get the correct parts. The standard sections apply to the base model. The index on page 1 clearly separates them.

How many pages is it?

32 pages.
