GEHL SL4640E, SL5240E 2010 Parts Catalog

Let me save you some grief. You are working on a GEHL SL4640E or SL5240E skid-steer loader, and you need a part. Not a guess. Not a cross-reference from a third-party catalog that doesn’t match the bolt pattern. You need the factory drawing with the right part number. That is what this 2010 GEHL SL4640E, SL5240E Parts Catalog is – 266 pages of OEM diagrams and part listings straight from GEHL. No aftermarket interpretation.

Main Loader Component Breakdown

Section A of this Parts Catalog covers the main loader components: chassis, grille and engine cover, ROPS/FOPS structure, restraint bar, seats (standard, suspension, seat belt options, three-point restraint), lift arm, attachment bracket, wheel drives, engine, air cleaner and exhaust. Each component has its own exploded view with callouts. Page 2 lists the abbreviations used – things like DH for Dual Hand, DJS for Dual Joystick, HF for High-Flow. You’ll need those to decode the part descriptions. Genuine GEHL replacement parts only, no substitutions.

Hydraulic Components: Factory Diagrams vs Aftermarket

Section B gets into the hydraulics. This is where aftermarket manuals screw up. They collapse multiple control configurations into one generic drawing. This catalog separates them: T-Bar, Dual Hand, Hand/Foot, T-Bar/Joystick, Dual Joystick. It covers Power-A-Tach and Hydraglide Ride Control hydraulics separately. High-flow options have their own listings. If you are chasing a hydraulic leak or replacing a valve, you need the exact diagram for your control setup. This book has it.

4 Major Sections in 266 Pages

Four sections split the book: A – Main Loader Components, B – Hydraulic Components, C – Kits, Accessories and Filters, D – Schematics. Section A alone runs over a hundred pages. Section C covers Kits, Accessories and Filters. Section D gives you the hydraulic and electrical schematics. That is a complete parts reference for the entire machine. GEHL SL4640 SL4840 SL5640 2009 Parts Catalog covers previous model years if you need to cross-check supersessions.

Does This Manual Cover Your SL4640E Serial Number Range?

Page 1 states: SL4640E (EU) SN 310601 and up, SL5240E (EU) SN 430005 and up. There is a specific axle assembly (194761) listed for 4640 models SN 310601 – 311498 and 5240 models SN 430005 – 431175. If your serial number falls outside those ranges, you need the correct supplement. Otherwise this catalog is the right one.

Get the Right Part Number the First Time

Ordering a part without the factory catalog means you are gambling. This manual gives you the part number, description, quantity, and any nonstandard torque value or lubrication note in parentheses behind the description. Standard attaching hardware torque values are on the inside back cover (referenced on page 2). Items shown without part numbers are for reference only – not available for purchase. That saves you from ordering something that doesn’t exist as a service part. Use genuine GEHL parts for safety and proper fit. For operating instructions and daily maintenance, pick up the GEHL SL4640E SL5240E Operators Manual – 114 Pages OEM. For repair procedures, get the GEHL SL4640E SL4840E SL5640E SL6640E 2076 2007 Service Manual. Background on the diesel engine used in these loaders? Read this Wikipedia article on diesel engines.

FAQ

What serial numbers does this parts catalog cover?

SL4640E from SN 310601 up; SL5240E from SN 430005 up.

Does it include torque specifications for fasteners?

Note on page 2 says standard attaching hardware torque values are on the inside back cover. Nonstandard torque values are listed behind the part number description. Yes, it includes torque data but not full engine rebuild specs – that is in the service manual.

Is this a service manual or a parts catalog?

This is a Parts Catalog, not a service manual. It shows exploded views and part numbers for ordering replacements. For service procedures like engine disassembly, hydraulic pump rebuild, or electrical troubleshooting, you want the factory service manual. The parts catalog is for identifying components, not for step-by-step repair. If you need both, get the service manual too.

Can I use this manual for the SL5240E with a different control configuration?

Yes. The catalog covers multiple control configurations: T-Bar, Dual Hand, Hand/Foot, T-Bar/Joystick, Dual Joystick. Each has its own parts breakdown. The book is organized by control type, so find your machine’s setup.

That is the end of the sales pitch. If you are tired of returning parts that don’t fit, if you want the actual factory drawings and part numbers without somebody else’s interpretation, Access the Factory Manual and get back to the job.
