Hough H-30 Parts Catalog – Payloader Parts Breakdown

You pull the old bucket cylinder off your H-30 and the part number stamp is worn smooth. Without a proper parts catalog, you’re eyeballing dimensions and praying. This Hough H-30 Parts Catalog is a direct reproduction of the factory document. 108 pages of exploded views and exact part numbers. No chasing cross-references. Automotive Industry Overview for context on heavy equipment manufacturing.

Hough H-30 Parts Catalog – What’s Inside

This manual covers the H-30 Payloader across multiple series. The directory on page 5 shows how to identify your machine’s series using the serial number. Includes both gas and diesel variants: I.H.C. Gas (model U-240) and I.H.C. Diesel (model UD-236). Each part is illustrated and keyed to a parts list. Identification numbers correspond to item numbers in the group. If you’ve ever tried to match a worn-out part without a reference, you know the value of having the factory drawing in front of you.

108 Pages of Illustrated Parts Breakdowns

Count them: 108 pages of exploded views and part listings. Each page covers a specific group – from the power train to the bucket assembly. The illustrations are line drawings showing exact shapes. Part numbers are listed alongside. This is not a service manual – it does not contain repair procedures or torque specs. It’s a parts catalog. Use it to order the correct replacement parts. International Hough H-50 Series B Payloader Parts Catalogue covers the H-50 if you have a bigger machine.

Identify Your H-30 Series by Serial Number

On page 1, the manual states the serial number format: model number, series, power unit number. For example, I.H.C. Gas starts at 10A1075. You need to verify your machine’s series before ordering parts. The manual lists parts applicable to machines beginning with the serial number on the outside cover. If your machine is earlier production, check the “City” column – figures indicate the number of that part used in the group. Don’t skip this step. Ordering the wrong part because you didn’t read the serial number range is wasted time and money.

Parts Ordering: Four Pieces of Information

The manual spells out exactly what you need when ordering: 1) Part number, name, and quantity; 2) Serial number and model letters of the machine; 3) For transmission, drive axle, pump, valve, or engine – give those unit serial numbers and model letters too; 4) Destination and shipping method. That’s it. Follow this and you’ll get the right parts. Hough P600 Tran & Torque Converter Service Manual covers the powertrain if you need service specs.

Reproduction Manual: What It Means for You

This is a reproduction produced by Jensales Inc. without Hough’s authorization. The manual itself states that Hough is not responsible for quality or accuracy. That said, it’s a direct copy of the original Hough parts catalog – the part numbers and illustrations are accurate as long as they match your machine’s serial number. I’ve used these Jensales reproductions on older equipment. The key is verifying serial number coverage. The Automotive Industry Overview includes background on how these aftermarket reproductions are made. If you need an official Hough publication, you’d have to find an original, but those are rare. For a parts catalog, this reproduction works.

One thing to watch: the manual says “Each picture in this manual are of typical parts only – the parts may vary in detail.” So use the part number, not the picture, to order. The picture is for identification, not exact fit guarantee.

Bucket Orientation and Handing

The manual explicitly states: the bucket is always considered the front end. Right (R.H.) and left (L.H.) sides are determined by the operator sitting in the seat facing the bucket. This is critical when ordering bucket parts like cutting edges or teeth. Get the orientation wrong and you’ll have a left-hand part for the right side.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this catalog for a different Hough model like the H-30B?

The manual specifically covers the H-30 Payloader as identified by the serial number range printed on the outside cover. The manual lists parts applicable to machines beginning with that serial number. If your H-30B serial number falls within that range, the part numbers should match. However, if the manual was published before the B series was introduced, some later parts may not be shown. You need to compare the part numbers with your machine’s actual parts. For best results, contact a Hough dealer with your serial number to verify. The catalog is a reference, not a guarantee.

Does this manual include torque specs?

No.
