Grimme SE 150/170-60 2012 Parts Catalog

If you have ever ordered a seal kit for a potato harvester and ended up with a part that fits a different model, you already know why this catalog matters. I have seen more mismatched parts on shop floors than I care to count. The Grimme SE 150/170-60 2012 Parts Catalog stops that nonsense. 808 pages of factory-issued spare parts lists, exploded views, and OEM numbers. No guesswork, no aftermarket reinterpretation. Just the exact part you need, pulled from Grimme’s own engineering files.

001 Machine Equipment – Full Section Breakdown

This catalog opens with the machine equipment section (001), covering UBR, second separator assemblies, transfer webs, and warning transfer setups. You get separate sub-sections for 750mm and 1000mm configurations. Each entry includes a reference number (SPI.19406, etc.) and a clear exploded diagram. That means when you need the idler sprocket for the UBR transfer web, you find it in five minutes, not after three wrong orders.

Grimme SE 150/170-60 2012 Parts Catalog: Axle and Brake Systems

Section 010 is the axle group. It is not just a list of bearings and hubs. You get 23 sub-sections covering steering axles, COA brake systems for tractor, boiler, and axle, hydraulic brake systems, parking brakes, and even tire specifications for 26.5, 30.5, and 800-30.5 sizes. Each brake system variant has its own part number cluster. If you have a HWD axle with the 3.3m track, the catalog isolates the exact brake line fittings and seal kit. Try matching that from a generic aftermarket website – good luck.

Why an OEM Parts Catalog Beats Aftermarket Lists

Aftermarket catalogs often group parts by generic dimensions. This one does not. Every part number is tied to a specific SPI code and a sub-section that references the exact machine configuration. For example, the DIABLO roller intake (section 060) has eight different roller variants: 540, 580, 600, 620, and carrot-specific versions. Each has its own entry. The factory drawings show the cross-section and bolt locations. Automotive Industry Overview standards for parts documentation are nothing like this level of detail. Automotive Industry Overview may talk about “service information”, but this catalog lives on the bench.

050 Drawbar and Support – Not Just a Hitch

Section 050 covers the drawbar and support assembly. One sub-section: DR DRAWBAR LONG (SPI.18865). That is it – but that single entry includes the drawbar tube, the hitch plate, the pin, and the retainer. You order the whole assembly or the pin separately. No confusion about which year’s model uses a 50mm pin versus a 55mm pin. The catalog shows the 2012 specs directly.

060 Intake Unit – Diablo Roller and Ridge Options

Section 060 lists the intake unit parts, from DIABLO roller intakes to ridge intake frames and self-centering row adjustments. You also get driven disc assemblies (R/H and L/H) and share depth adjustment hydraulic components. The catalog groups these by function: pressure regulation, terrain control, and blade types (CHAW 1500 / 1700 with 2- or 3-blade options). If you need the bearing for a half-diablo roller intake 540, the part number is there. GRIMME DR 1500 Potato Harvester Parts List 1996 covers an older model, but this 2012 catalog includes the latest revisions for the SE 150/170-60.

Electrical and Lighting – Separate PDF Included

The product includes the full lighting and electrical system PDFs (Beleuchtungsanlage, Übersicht Elektroanlage, Arbeitsbeleuchtung). These are factory spare parts lists for the wiring harness, bulbs, connectors, and switches. If you are restoring a harvester that has had its looms hacked together, this gives you the OEM wire colors and connector part numbers. No more tracing wires with a multimeter for hours.

3 Reasons to Stick with OEM Part Numbers

First, the catalog has 808 pages – that is every fastener, hose, and bracket for the SE 150/170-60 2012. Second, the part numbers match Grimme’s own database, so your dealer will not question them. Third, it saves you from buying a $200 hydraulic motor only to find the shaft spline is wrong. The aftermarket GRIMME SE 150-60 Potato Harvester Spare Parts List might be close, but it skips the 170-60 variants.

Who Needs This Catalog?

If you run a small fleet of SE 150/170-60 harvesters, or you are a home-garage mechanic maintaining one for a neighbor, this is your parts bible. It is also for shop owners who want their techs to stop wasting time cross-referencing aftermarket sites. You do not need to be a Grimme specialist – the exploded diagrams and numbered callouts walk you through each assembly. Beginners can use it to identify parts before calling the dealer.

Source Authenticity – Factory Grimme, Not a Reprint

The file is the original 2012 Grimme spare parts list (SPL.01473), serialized and stamped with the factory logo. It is not a scan-and-resell job. The table of contents on page 3 shows the full structure: 001 through 060, plus electrical PDFs. The serial number blank on page 1 confirms this is the same document that Grimme ships to their dealers. GRIMME SE 70-20 Potato Harvester Parts Catalog 1993 is an older generation – this one matches the 2012 model year.

Does this catalog include repair instructions or torque specs?

No. This is a spare parts list only – exploded diagrams, part numbers, and quantities. You need the service repair manual for disassembly and torque values.

How do I find a specific part number quickly?

The PDFs are fully bookmarked by section (001, 010, 050, 060, etc.). Open the bookmark panel, click the section, and scroll to the sub-section. Each entry has an SPI code that matches the diagram callout. For example, the DIABLO roller intake 540 is SPI.03537. Use the search function within the PDF for that code to jump straight to the page. It takes around 20 seconds once you know the pattern.

You need one tool that stops parts guesswork. Access the Factory Manual now and start ordering the right Grimme SE 150/170-60 parts from the first call.
