Dieci Samson Parts Catalog – OEM Spare Parts Manual for Construction Equipment

I’ve seen too many guys waste an afternoon because they ordered the wrong hydraulic fitting or a pulley that doesn’t match the bracket. That’s time you don’t bill, and money you don’t get back. When you’re working on a Dieci Samson – whether it’s a telehandler or a rough-terrain forklift – you need a parts list that comes from the same people who stamped the steel. This Parts Catalog is that. Original factory documentation, not some third-party recompilation that misses the revision letter on a seal.

What’s Inside the 234-Page Catalog?

This isn’t a repair manual – it’s a parts identification book. Page 1 gives you the catalog title in five languages: Italian, English, Spanish, French, German. Page 2 lists Dieci’s factory support contact in Montecchio Emilia, Italy – phone, fax, email. The next 232 pages are organized by assembly groups. Each group has an exploded drawing with callouts that match a numbered table. The table gives you the part number, description, quantity, and sometimes a note like “optional” or “not supplied separately, order as kit.” You get the same data Dieci uses in their own spare parts warehouse.

One thing I appreciate: every page carries a revision indicator and a date stamp. That’s how you know you’re looking at the current parts breakdown. No outdated supersession chains unless they’re marked.

Exploded Views and Part Number Accuracy

The drawings are line-art schematics with clear leader lines. Each component – from a starter motor to a hydraulic hose bracket – is numbered. The corresponding table lists the OEM part number, which is the only number you should punch into your dealer’s system. If you try to order by description alone, you’ll get the wrong thread pitch or a different bend angle. This catalog eliminates that guesswork.

3 Reasons to Choose OEM Documentation Over Aftermarket

First, aftermarket catalogs often re-use old drawings and miss design changes made during production runs. Dieci’s own catalog tracks those updates. Second, the cross-reference between languages means you can look up a part using the Italian name if that’s what your supplier uses. Third, the page numbering and group structure match Dieci’s internal system – so if you call the factory hotline and say “group 7, page 154,” they know exactly which bracket you mean. You don’t get that with a scanned photocopy from a third party. DIECI Samson Icarus Runner Zeus Operation Manual covers operation but doesn’t replace this parts book – you need both for a complete shop library.

Languages and Cross-Reference Codes

Five languages cover the main markets: Italian (original), English, Spanish, French, German. The headers on each page repeat the group name in all five, so a Spanish-speaking tech can find the same assembly without flipping to a separate section. Symbols on page 3 indicate whether a part is optional, not sellable separately, or in the coding phase. That symbol legend is printed once at the front – memorize it before you start ordering.

If you’re working on a Samson model with a serial number near AXL0027, this catalog matches that build. Dieci’s own documentation is the only source that lists the exact hardware for your chassis variant. DIECI Operation and Maintenance Manual – Man Basket is a different document – that’s for the man-basket attachment – but the parts catalog for the base machine stays the same.

How to Use This Catalog Correctly

Start by locating your machine’s serial number plate. Find the group number that matches the assembly you’re working on – hydraulics, engine, driveline, cab, whatever. Open to that group’s first page. Find the exploded view. Identify the part by its position number. Then read the part number from the table. Write it down. Call your Dieci dealer with that number. Done. Skip any step and you’re guessing.

This catalog doesn’t include torque specs or service procedures. For those, you need the Dieci Zeus 37.7 Parts Catalog – OEM Spare Parts Manual if you’re running a different model, or the service manual for the Samson. But for ordering steel, this is the only document you should trust.

OEM vs Aftermarket: Why Dieci Originals Matter

I’ve seen counterfeit hydraulic seals fail in under 50 hours. OEM part numbers in this catalog are guaranteed to fit the Samson as built. Dieci’s engineers test each component to the same spec as the original assembly. When you buy an aftermarket “equivalent” you’re taking the risk that the supplier copied the dimension but not the material hardness. That’s how a boom cylinder leaks. Stick with the factory numbers. Automotive Industry Overview can tell you about general manufacturing standards, but it won’t tell you the correct O-ring size for your Samson’s quick-coupler. That’s what this catalog does.

The manual is a direct PDF scan of the original Dieci publication – not a retyped copy. Every page is sharp enough to read the smallest part number. No watermarks, no missing pages. You get the complete 234 pages as they left the factory.

Does this catalog cover the Samson model with the Perkins engine?

Yes. The catalog includes all engine variants sold under the Samson nameplate, including Perkins and Deutz options. Check the engine group in the table of contents for the specific section. If your serial number is AXL0027 or within the range referenced, the part numbers for gaskets, filters, and fuel system components are listed in group 8 (engine). If you need confirmation, call Dieci support with your VIN.

Can I use this catalog to order parts for a Dieci Icarus?

No. This is for Samson models only.

Access the Factory Manual if you want to stop wasting time on wrong parts. This is the same binder that sits on every Dieci dealer’s parts counter. Get it, print the pages you need, and keep it in your shop binder. Your Samson will thank you.
