GEHL 2262 Parts Catalog – Factory Part Numbers and Exploded Views

You need a part for a GEHL 2262 center pivot mower conditioner. You can walk into a dealer with a serial number and a vague description, or you can hand them the exact part number from the factory Parts Catalog. I know which one gets you out the door faster. This is 40 pages of OEM exploded diagrams, callouts, and hardware descriptions – not a reprint of some third-party scan where the bolt size is a guess. GEHL wrote this for their own dealers. You get the same data.

40 Pages – That’s All They Gave You

Some manuals are doorstops. This one is 40 pages because it covers exactly what you need: every nut, bolt, hydraulic fitting, belt, gear, and shield on the 2262. Page 1 shows the center pivot layout. Page 2 is the “Mr. Dealer” intro – it tells you how to read the part numbers and what abbreviations like HWHSTS mean. If you’ve ever stared at a cap screw callout and wondered what grade, that page explains it: Grade 5 unless noted. No fluff, no ad copy – just the facts a dealer needs to order the right piece.

What’s Inside: Decal Locations to Reel Drives

• Decal Locations – find the serial number decal on the left end of the main frame
• Main Frame, Linkage & Flotation – where the frame meets the tongue
• Tongue & Hydraulic Drive – hoses, fittings, and the drive line
• Auger & Reel Drive – belts and pulleys for the header
• Sickle Drive & Guards – the guts of the cutterbar
• Hay Conditioner – rollers and shields
• Options like Crop Divider Kit, Gauge Wheel Kit, Stub-on-Stub Guard Kit

Each section has exploded views with part numbers and hardware callouts. The hydraulic hose descriptions include diameter, length, and termination type. You don’t need to guess whether it’s a JIC or NPTF – the catalog tells you.

Decal Locations – Start Here Before Ordering Anything

Page 1 points you to the model and serial number decal on the left end of the main frame, below the flotation spring anchor. Write that number down. Every part order depends on it. GEHL reserves the right to change designs, and the serial number tells you which version you have. The catalog also defines “right” and “left” from behind the machine facing forward – a detail that saves you from ordering a left sickle when you need a right one.

Main Frame, Linkage & Flotation – Where You Get Stuck Without This Book

I’ve seen guys pull a pivot pin, then spend an hour matching threads at the hardware store. This section lists every cap screw, lock washer, and flotation spring with a GEHL part number. The hardware listed is for mounting only – it’s not included when you order the part itself. That’s in the Mr. Dealer notes on page 2. If you’re replacing a weldment, you don’t automatically get the bolts. Order them separately. The catalog tells you exactly which ones.

Why This OEM Document Beats Any Aftermarket Alternative

I’ve seen aftermarket “parts catalogs” that copy the illustrations but drop the hardware callouts. This one has the GEHL form number 903221 on page 1. The abbreviations table is right there: CB for carriage bolt, HFSS for hexagon flange whiz-lock screw, NPTF for the pipe thread. Aftermarket guys leave those out because they don’t know what they mean. This manual came from GEHL Company – the same factory that built the 2262. You’re not guessing.

Who Needs This 40-Page Parts Catalog?

Farmers rebuilding a used 2262. Mechanics at a dealership with a machine that needs a full overhaul. Owners who don’t want to pay dealer markup on parts they could source themselves. If you’re ordering hydraulic hoses, the catalog gives the diameter, length, and terminations – you can have a local shop make them. Tires? You can’t buy OEM tires from GEHL (company policy), but the wheel sets and tire sizes are called out. All replacement tires must be purchased locally. This manual gives you the specs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this parts catalog include torque specifications?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Torque values for head bolts, wheel nuts, and other fasteners are in the separate service manual. The catalog lists part numbers and illustrations only. Buy both if you’re doing a rebuild.

How many pages does the GEHL 2262 Parts Catalog have?

40 pages. No fluff, no filler. Just exploded diagrams and part lists.

Can I use this catalog to repair the mower conditioner?

You can use it to identify parts you need to order. The exploded views show how components fit together, but there are no step-by-step repair instructions. For assembly procedures, get the factory service manual. The parts catalog gets you the right hardware so you don’t stop mid-job to chase bolts.

What machine exactly does this cover?

GEHL model 2262 center pivot mower conditioner. It includes all options and accessories listed in the table of contents: crop divider kit, paddle kit, extra reel bat kit, swathing attachment kit, gauge wheel kit, and stub-on-stub guard kit. If you have a 2262 with any of those add-ons, the part numbers are in here.

I’ve been torquing bolts since before some of you were born. A parts catalog won’t teach you how to rebuild a hydrostatic motor, but it will keep you from ordering the wrong part and burning an afternoon. You need the serial number, the page reference, and the factory illustration. This 40-page OEM manual gives you all three. If you run a GEHL 2262, this is the list.
