GEHL RS10-44, RS10-55, RS12-42 2010 Parts Catalog

Twenty-eight years turning wrenches, and I still see guys order the wrong hydraulic fitting because they trusted a third-party parts list. That’s a wasted afternoon and a machine deadlined. This 2010 factory Parts Catalog for the GEHL RS10-44, RS10-55, and RS12-42 telescopic handlers kills that guesswork. It’s not a repair manual – it’s the parts bible. Exploded views, OEM part numbers, quantities, and torque specs for standard attaching hardware. 290 pages of stuff you can trust.

Engine and Transmission: Where the Catalog Saves You Hours

You need a coolant hose for the diesel engine or a seal kit for the transmission? This catalog breaks down the entire power train. The Engine and Transmission sections include all sub-components – gaskets, filters, lines. Each part has the GEHL number, no cross-referencing. For the basics on diesel operation, see this Wikipedia article on diesel engines. Also, this Wikipedia article on diesel engines offers more background, but for ordering parts, stick with the factory data.

Cab and Chassis: Exploded Views That Actually Match

Window regulators, wiper arms, fuel tank straps – the Cab, Chassis, Cover, and Tanks sections lay out every bracket and fastener. The manual identifies right vs. left from the operator’s position facing forward. I’ve found that detail saves an hour of head-scratching on the RS10-44 cab door adjustments. Grease fittings and common hardware (cotter pins, set screws) are listed under the parent part but not illustrated, except where routing matters.

Hydraulics: Boom, Cylinders, and Components

The Boom, Boom Hydraulics, Chassis Hydraulics, Hydraulic Cylinders and Hydraulic Components sections cover the lift and tilt circuits. Each cylinder rebuild kit is called out with the exact bore and rod dimensions. If you’re overhauling the RS12-42 boom lift cylinder, you’ll find the part number for the seal package without calling the dealer. Attachments and Decal sections round out the machine.

Torque Specs: Why the Back Cover Matters

Standard attaching hardware torque values are printed on the inside back cover of this – not in a generic PDF from some farm forum. Unless a specific bolt has its own torque callout, all fasteners are Grade 5, cadmium or zinc plated, with Grade 5 nuts. I’ve seen guys strip transmission pan bolts because they guessed. This catalog keeps you at the factory spec.

Alphabetical and Numerical Indexes: Finding Parts Fast

Two full indexes – numerical and alphabetical from A through W. Need a part number for a filter? Look under “Filters” in the alphabetical index. Or search by the six-digit GEHL number. The indexes are cross-referenced to the exact exploded-view page. No flipping through 290 pages blind.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this catalog include assembly instructions or step-by-step repairs?

No. That’s the service manual’s job. This parts catalog shows exploded views and lists OEM part numbers for ordering. It will not walk you through rebuilding a transmission.

What torque values are provided?

Standard attaching hardware torque values are on the inside back cover. All bolts are Grade 5 unless otherwise noted. The catalog does not list torque for internal engine or transmission fasteners; those come from the shop manual. But for mounting brackets, panels, and hydraulics, these specs are the factory baseline.

Can I use this to order parts for a 2008 RS10-44?

This catalog is for 2010 model-year machines. Earlier models may have different part numbers. Check the serial number plate inside the cab and match it to the serial-number breakdown on page 2. If your machine is older, the GEHL RS10-44 2009 Parts Catalog might be a better fit.

Will this give me part numbers for the decals on the boom?

Yes. The Decal section lists warning labels and logos with their part numbers and positions. Handy if a decal is peeling or you’re restoring a machine.

Access the Factory Manual and stop wasting time with aftermarket parts lookups that don’t fit. You’ll have every exploded diagram and torque spec for the RS10-44, RS10-55, and RS12-42 right on your tablet or print it for the toolbox. That’s how you get parts ordered right the first time.
