Dynapac LX 90 Parts Catalog – What You Get with 28 Pages of OEM Data

If you’ve ever ordered a replacement part for a plate compactor and ended up with the wrong spring, the wrong filter, or a part that doesn’t fit your engine variant, you know the headache. That’s time wasted and money burned. The Dynapac LX 90 Parts Catalog is the factory-issued document that kills that guesswork. No aftermarket re-draws, no third-party interpretations – just the original OEM exploded views and part numbers Dynapac used on the assembly line.

I’ve been turning wrenches for 28 years. When a piece of equipment comes in with a broken vibrator assembly or a cracked base plate, I pull the factory parts catalog before I touch anything. This 28-page document tells me exactly which bracket, which bolt, and which washer belongs where. It covers three engine options – Honda GX140, Honda GX160, and K1SX – and the parts differ between them. Order from a generic list and you’ll be calling the supplier back inside a week.

What the 28 Pages Actually Contain

This isn’t a repair manual. It’s a parts catalog – and it does that job without any filler. The first page (page 1) gives the machine type and serial number range. Page 2 lists the engine variants that apply to the LX 90, including the specific Honda models and the K1SX. Each major assembly – base plate, exciter unit, handle section – is drawn in exploded view with callouts linked to a parts table. You get the part number, description, quantity per assembly, and any supersession notes. Page 3 is the ordering instruction page – six fields you need to supply so your dealer doesn’t send you the wrong item. That page alone will save you a return shipping fee equal to half the cost of the part.

Why a Factory Parts Catalog Beats Aftermarket

Aftermarket parts catalogs are often reprints of older revisions or composite drawings from multiple models. They leave out the revision notes that tell you which serial numbers take which part. The Dynapac LX 90 Parts Catalog is a direct scan of the original Swedish document from Metso Dynapac AB. It includes the original publishing codes (SLX090-1EN2) and the change history table on page 4. If Dynapac revised a spring rate or changed a bearing supplier, that information is in the remarks column. You won’t see that in a third-party list.

3 Steps to Order the Right Part

First, find your machine’s serial number – it’s stamped on the data plate near the handle mount. Second, open the catalog to the correct assembly group (the index on page 4 shows group numbers). Third, cross-reference the part number with the engine variant listed on page 2. The catalog also includes dimensions for items sold by length, which is common for vibration mounts and belts. Follow those three steps and your order lands right the first time.

Engine Variants: Which One Do You Have?

Page 2 of the catalog clearly states: “Round Vibrating Plate Compactor LX 90” and then lists the three engines – Honda GX140, Honda GX160, and K1SX. Each engine uses a different flywheel key, different recoil starter assembly, a different carburetor gasket set. If you order parts for a GX160 and your machine has a GX140, the mounting holes won’t align. The catalog breaks this out so you don’t have to guess. Check your engine’s model number before you flip to the parts table.

Get the Part Numbers Right – Every Time

On page 3, the ordering instructions list six required pieces of information: type of machine, serial number, quantity, part number, denomination, and dimensions for meter goods. That last one catches people off guard – if you order a length of rubber seal or a belt by part number alone, you may get the wrong length. The catalog gives you the exact metric length so you can verify. This catalog uses the same part numbering system as the Dynapac dealer network, so you can walk into any authorized dealer with the number and they’ll pull it from their system without hesitation.

Who Needs This Parts Catalog?

You need this if you own or maintain a Dynapac LX 90 plate compactor. Home garage enthusiasts who rent these machines should also keep a copy – when you’re responsible for maintenance, having the correct part number means you don’t overpay for a dealer’s markup on a common bolt. Small construction crews will use it to stock common wear items like springs, base plate liners, and handle mounts before a job starts. Beginners will appreciate the exploded view format – you can see how the exciter assembly comes apart without having to disassemble it blind.

Can I use this catalog for a Dynapac LX 90 with a different engine?

Yes, the catalog lists parts for Honda GX140, GX160, and K1SX engine variants.

Does this catalog include torque specifications for assembly?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Torque values are not included. If you need assembly torque specs for the exciter or engine mounts, you’ll need the official Dynapac LX 90 workshop manual or the specific engine service manual from Honda. The parts catalog only shows what part goes where, not how tight to install it. Confusing the two will lead to stripped threads or loose fasteners, so use the right document for the job.

How do I find the correct part number if my machine has a serial number not listed in the catalog?

Check the serial number against the change history table on page 4. If yours falls outside the listed range, contact Dynapac dealer support with the full serial number. The catalog covers S-10335-1 and later revisions.

Is this the same as the official Dynapac dealer catalog?

Yes. This is a direct reproduction of the original factory document used by Dynapac dealers and service centers. It has the same part numbers, same exploded views, and same page layout as the dealer version.

If you maintain a Dynapac LX 90, stop ordering parts blind and start using the document that Dynapac engineers wrote for their own service network. Access the Factory Manual now and keep a copy in your shop binder or tablet for the next time a spring breaks or a bearing seizes.
