GEHL RS5-19 2009 Parts Catalog

Every time I see a technician trying to use a generic parts list from some online forum, I cringe. That’s how you end up with the wrong seal or a bolt that strips. For the GEHL RS5-19 2009 Parts Catalog, you get the real deal – factory pages with the exact part numbers and torque specs for your telescopic handler. This isn’t a reprint; it’s the same 156-page document GEHL shipped in August 2009 (Revision D, form number 913259). If you’ve ever ordered a part by guess and had to return it, you know why this matters.

Torque Specifications and Fastener Grades

Turn to the inside back cover and you’ll find the standard attaching hardware torque values for the RS5-19. Those values aren’t suggestions – they’re the specs called out for Grade 5 capscrews and hex nuts. The manual tells you that unless otherwise specified, capscrews are Grade 5, cadmium or zinc plated. That matters when you’re torquing down a hydraulic line bracket or a cab mount. Aftermarket catalogs skip this detail. Here, it’s printed right where you need it.

What Does the Numerical Index Cover?

You get a listing of every part number referenced, cross-referenced to the page where the illustration lives. When you’ve got a part in hand with a number stamped on it, you hit the index and find the assembly it belongs to. Combined with the Alphabetical Index (A through W), you can locate anything from a filter to a fuse panel without flipping randomly. That saves time on a busy job.

156 Pages of Factory Parts Breakdown

This catalog covers the full machine – cab, instrument panel, switches, fuses, front and rear lights, windshield options, wiper assembly, and more. The Table of Contents starts on page 1 and lists every component group. For the RS5-19, you’ll find exploded-view diagrams for each section with callout numbers tied to the parts list. No vague drawings; these are OEM illustrations with every fastener and seal accounted for. If you need the filter section, it’s on page 4. If you need the cab breakdown, it starts on page 6. If you need the operator instructions for the same model, check the GEHL RS5-19 2013 Operators Manual – Factory Specs for Tier IV or the earlier GEHL RS5-19 2010 Operators Manual – Factory OEM Document. For the parts breakdown for the 2013 version, see GEHL RS5-19 2013 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Manual.

Read the Introduction Before Ordering Parts

The Introduction on page 2 tells you how to decode the serial number (RS519 D Z 00 00000) and where to find it on the machine – inside the operator’s station and on the top front of the frame. It also defines “left” and “right” relative to the operator facing forward. Skip this, and you might order a part for the wrong side. The manual also notes that grease fittings and common hardware like cotter pins are listed indented under the parent part – they’re not illustrated separately. Pay attention to that when you’re rebuilding an assembly.

Parts Manual Structure: How It Works

Each component group starts with an illustration page and the corresponding parts list. The list indents the hardware and fittings below the main part. Remember: the hardware listed is for mounting – it’s not included when you order the replacement part. That’s a common mistake: you buy a new lift cylinder and expect the bolts, but the catalog clearly separates them. Standard attaching hardware torque values are provided on the inside back cover. For anything special – like engine internal fasteners – there may be additional torque callouts elsewhere, but the back cover covers the standard Grade 5 stuff.

Who Should Use This Catalog?

If you own a GEHL RS5-19 telescopic handler and do your own maintenance – or if you run a shop that repairs these machines – this catalog is for you. Home garage enthusiasts who want to rebuild the cab or replace a hydraulic line can get the exact part numbers without pulling the machine apart twice. I’ve seen DIYers order a $400 pump based on a visual match – then find out the spline count was wrong. This manual prevents that.

Source Authenticity: OEM vs Aftermarket

This is a genuine OEM document, not a third-party copy. The form number 913259 and Revision D stamp it as an official GEHL publication. The pages are scanned from the original factory print, so you’re seeing the same specs the dealer uses. I’ve compared aftermarket parts catalogs to this – they almost always leave out the hardware torque or the indented part note. Don’t risk it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this parts catalog include torque values for hardware?

Yes, standard torque values are on the inside back cover for Grade 5 capscrews and hex nuts.

Can I use this catalog to find part numbers for engine components like the fuel system or cylinder head?

Absolutely. The catalog covers the entire RS5-19, including the engine and its subsystems. The Alphabetical Index includes entries like “Engine” and “Fuel System” – look there to find the correct page. Because this is a parts catalog, it lists every nut, bolt, seal, and gasket with a GEHL part number. When ordering, you need the part number, description, quantity, and your unit model and serial number as stated in the introduction. The exploded diagrams show exactly how parts fit together, so you can confirm you’re ordering the right component. I’ve used it to find a fuel injector hold-down bolt torque spec – it’s not listed in the torque section but the hardware callout in the engine assembly page gives the grade and size, then you cross-reference the standard torque on the back cover. That’s how OEM documents work – they don’t spoon-feed you, but they give you the data to get it right.
