GEHL CT5-16, CT5-16 Turbo 2005 Parts Catalog

Anyone who’s tried to rebuild a GEHL telescopic handler with aftermarket parts lists knows the headache. You get a box of seals and they don’t match. The bracket you ordered has holes in the wrong places. That’s what happens when you work off someone’s photocopied parts list. This 2005 GEHL CT5-16, CT5-16 Turbo 2005 Parts Catalog is the real deal – 238 pages of factory part numbers, exploded diagrams, and the torque specs you need to assemble things correctly. GEHL put this together, not some third-party reprint house. Every page comes from the original 913226 Rev. B print run.

Part Numbers and Exploded Views – Not Guesswork

Each section in this catalog starts with an exploded view of the assembly. You get callout numbers pointing to every nut, bolt, seal, and bracket. The Cab section alone covers right and left side glass for the Turbo model, roof fixtures, window shades, work lights, upper and lower doors, interior trim, dash, seat, heater plumbing, and air conditioning broken into five parts. If you need a specific piece of glass for the CT5-16 Turbo, you find it in the Cab chapter, not by measuring your broken window and hoping. The Electrical section maps out the main circuit, shifter circuit, start/run circuit, fuses, relays, and trailer lights connector. Exploded views keep you from ordering a part that looks right but fits wrong.

Torque Specifications: Inside Back Cover – Don’t Skip It

Standard attaching hardware torque values are printed on the inside back cover. GEHL specifies all cap screws as Grade 5, cadmium or zinc plated, with hex nuts to match. If you’re putting together a hydrostatic pump circuit or an axle reduction gear, you need those numbers. The manual also notes that grease fittings and common hardware like cotter pins and set screws are listed below the parent part but not illustrated. That’s a detail reprint houses often drop. this Wikipedia article on diesel engines explains why proper torque matters on engine components, but this catalog gives you the actual numbers.

Torque specs matter.

Cab Assembly: Glass, AC, and Heater Parts (CT5-16 vs Turbo)

The Cab chapter separates the CT5-16 and CT5-16 Turbo explicitly. For the Turbo, you get right and left side glass, right side and rear glass, front and top glass, rear glass, and roof fixtures. The CT5-16 has its own front and top glass and rear glass sections. Air conditioning is covered in five parts – Part 1 through Part 5 – so you can order a specific AC line or condenser without buying an entire kit. Heater plumbing and heater-only sections are listed for the Turbo. If you need a new windshield protection grill or work light bracket, the exploded view shows exactly which bolt goes where. This level of detail saves you from returning parts three times.

Engine Breakdown: Turbocharger Section

The Engine chapter splits naturally between the naturally aspirated CT5-16 and the CT5-16 Turbo. For the Turbo, there’s a dedicated Turbocharger section with its own exploded view, part numbers for the turbo itself, gaskets, oil lines, and mounting hardware. The engine block, crankshaft/connecting rods/pistons, cylinder head, camshaft/timing gear, oil pump and pan, water pump, flywheel, alternator, starter, and gasket kit are all covered. Turbocharger Tech articles online give general theory, but this catalog gives you the exact exhaust manifold part number that fits a CT5-16 Turbo. Don’t mix up the CT5-16 and Turbo exhaust manifolds – they’re separate sections. The fuel circuit is also split between the two models.

Hydraulics: Cylinders, Valves, and Pump Components

Boom hydraulics are broken into attachment locking circuit (option), lift and extend circuit, tilt circuit, attachment circuit, and steering circuit. The hydraulic system section includes the brake circuit, hydraulic controls, and a separate hydraulic components chapter covering lift cylinder, compensation (slave) cylinder, extend cylinder, tilt cylinder, steering mode valve bank, main valve bank, hydrostatic pump, hydrostatic motor, and inching valve. Each component has a full parts breakdown. If you need a seal kit for the lift cylinder, the exploded view shows the exact seal set. The hydrostatic pump circuit is split into two parts to avoid clutter. This manual does not contain step-by-step repair procedures – that’s what the service manual is for. Pick up the GEHL CT5-16, CT5-16 Turbo Service Manual – 800 Pages of Factory Specs for that.
