Grimme SE 150-60 1998 Parts Catalog

If you’re wrenching on a 1998 Grimme SE 150-60 potato harvester and the part you need doesn’t match the one you pulled off, you’re losing billable time. This factory Grimme SE 150-60 1998 Parts Catalog eliminates guesswork. 295 pages of OEM part numbers, exploded diagrams, and exact component breakdowns. No aftermarket reprints, no third-party translations. You get the same specs that built the machine in Damme, Germany.

Pulling a steering axle or brake assembly without the right part number means extra downtime and wrong orders. This catalog covers every nut and bolt – from the air brake device to the lighting system. Let’s walk through what’s in the book.

Air Brake Device – Page 010-3

The air brake system on the SE 150-60 is a critical safety component. Page 010-3 breaks down the entire AIR BRAKE DEVICE assembly: valves, lines, chambers, and mounting hardware. Each part gets a factory EDP number (E98416020 for the air brake group). If you’re replacing a brake chamber or a check valve, you confirm the number against this page before ordering. That saves you from getting a mismatched part that won’t fit the 1998 model.

Steering Axle with Brake – Page 010-6

Page 010-6 covers the STEERING AXLE WITH BRAKE assembly. This combines steering geometry with a mechanical brake system – common on this generation. The exploded view shows the kingpin, tie rod ends, brake drum, and wheel hub. Don’t assume the brake shoes are same as the standard steering axle (page 010-5). The part numbers differ. Always use the correct group page: STEERING AXLE WITH BRAKE is its own index. I’ve seen guys swap parts from the non-brake axle and end up with a shoe that doesn’t engage. This catalog prevents that.

7 Systems Covered: From Axle to Lighting

The index groups the entire machine into 7 broad functional areas: Warning Transfer, Axle Assembly, Intake and Haulm Handling, Web and Separator Drives, Hydraulics, Electrics, and Bunker/Platform. Under each group, sub-assemblies are listed with page numbers. For example, the HYDRAULIC CLUTCH (page 180-5) sits under MAIN DRIVE, while the MOVING FLOOR BUNKER has its own WEB section. This structure mirrors the way the machine is built – logical, not random.

You need to replace a share blade? The SHARE 2 BLADES sections cover 540, 580, and 620 mm intake widths (pages 060-5 through 060-7). Each is a separate drawing because the blade mount differs. Ordering the wrong blade width throws off your ridge intake geometry. The catalog gives you the correct EDP number down to the bolt length.

What Makes an OEM Parts Catalog Different?

Factory documentation – printed by Grimme in 1998 – is the only source that ties part numbers to serial number ranges. Aftermarket catalogs often combine multiple years or models into one PDF, leading to wrong numbers. This OEM copy retains the original model year stamp: MODEL 1998. The serial number blank on page 1 is where the machine’s build number goes. When you call Grimme for a part, they ask for the serial number. This catalog lets you read the EDP code from the page and match it to your machine’s configuration. Compare that to a third-party list that says “fits 1996-2000” – that’s a recipe for a wrong order.

Another detail: the WARNING TRANSFER section (page 001-1) lists safety decals and their part numbers. Neglecting to replace a faded warning sticker is a liability. This catalog tells you exactly which decal goes where on the 1998 model.

Identify the Correct Part Number

Each assembly page shows a line drawing with indexed parts and a table of EDP numbers, descriptions, and quantities. Example: For the AIR BRAKE DEVICE HWD (page 010-4), you’ll find the brake valve, quick-release valve, and air lines with Grimme-specific part numbers. No guesswork – just cross-reference the diagram. I recommend printing the relevant page, marking the parts you need, and ordering from your dealer. They’ll see the EDP number and have it in hand within days.

Need to rebuild the HYDRAULIC CLUTCH? Page 180-5 lists the clutch pack, seals, and actuator – all with factory numbers. Don’t assume aftermarket seals fit; the OE part dimensions are in the Grimme spec.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this parts catalog include wiring diagrams?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Lists only part numbers and assemblies.

What years and models are covered?

This catalog covers the 1998 model year Grimme SE 150-60 potato harvester. The serial number is referenced in the manual. Parts are organized by assembly groups – for example, the air brake device on page 010-3, steering axle with brake on page 010-6, and main drive sections. If you have a SE 150-60 from a different year, some components may differ; always verify by serial number.

Can I use this catalog for the SE 70-20?

No. The SE 70-20 is a different model. See GRIMME SE 70-20 Potato Harvester Parts Catalog 1993 for that machine.

How are parts organized?

Parts are grouped by functional system – axle, brake, intake, web drive, hydraulics, and electrics. Each section has an exploded view with reference numbers matching the part number table. The index at the front of the book lists every group with its page number so you can jump straight to the assembly you need.
