Iseki SRM48-TM3160 Parts Catalog – What You Get When You Need the Right Part the First Time

You’ve got a TM3160 mower on the lift, deck off, and you’re staring at a busted pulley or a bent blade. The local dealer wants a serial number and a part code you don’t have. You order something off the internet that looks close. Three days later, wrong piece. That’s time and money down the drain. A proper Iseki SRM48-TM3160 Parts Catalog kills that guesswork cold. It’s 21 pages of OEM exploded diagrams, part codes, interchangeability codes, and color callouts. Not a service manual – a parts breakdown. But if you’re swapping blades, belts, or a cylinder, you need the exact factory part number. This catalog gives it to you.

7 Systems Illustrated – From Universal Joint to Cylinder

The catalog breaks the mower into seven systems, each with its own figure. Fig. 1 covers the universal joint and case (bevel) system. Fig. 2 the pulley and V‑belt system. Fig. 3 the metal blade system. Fig. 4 the mower deck and cover system. Fig. 5 the gauge wheel system. Fig. 6 the link system split into two sheets. Fig. 7 the cylinder system – that’s a critical one for any deck lift or hydraulic function. Each figure has a key listing part code, description, type of model, and remarks. You can see which parts fit SRM48M, SRM48G, SRM48H, SRM48F, or SN448G. No guessing if a blade works on your specific model – the chart tells you.

Interchangeability Codes: OLD → NEW or No Swap?

Page 2 of the catalog spells out the three interchangeability codes. Code 1 means new parts replace old parts directly. Code 2 means old parts work with new parts – good if you have leftover inventory. Code 3 means old and new parts cannot swap. That’s the kind of detail that keeps you from ordering a cylinder head that won’t bolt up. The catalog also lists color codes for painted parts, using the factory paint numbers. If you’re matching the mirror black on a deck cover, you get the exact spray code – 1300-954-001-10. No guesswork.

Serial Number Ranges and Part Supersession

Every parts catalog is only useful if it accounts for production changes. This one does. The lower column of the parts list shows serial number breaks – for example, “－229” means up to serial 229, “230－” means from 230 onward. When you order a part that’s been superseded, the ISEKI online system automatically switches to the new number. But you still need to know the original code to look it up. That’s why having the OEM catalog on your bench matters. You can cross‑reference the old part code with the new one using the ITC column.

Optional Parts and Component Breakdowns

Beyond the standard parts, Fig. 9 covers the height adjust set (option). If someone added a height adjust kit after purchase, you need those part numbers to repair it. Fig. 10 is a component parts diagram for a specific assembly – 8595-101-600-00 – shown on Fig. 1. That’s the kind of detail aftermarket catalogs skip. They’ll give you one exploded view and call it done. This catalog gives you sub‑explosions for complex assemblies.

Why the OEM Source Matters – Not a Reprint

I’ve seen reprints that blur the part numbers or drop the interchangeability column. This is a factory scan of the original Iseki document. The notes are straight from the source: “Please be sure to use ISEKI GENUINE PARTS. Any other similar parts other than ISEKI parts when used may cause a trouble that makes us unable to repair.” That’s not a sales pitch – that’s liability. The job pays once if you get it right. This catalog helps you get it right.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this manual include torque specifications?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It lists part numbers and exploded diagrams. Torque values are in the service repair manual for your model.

Can I use this parts catalog to repair the mower?

You can identify parts and order them. For assembly procedures, you need the service manual. But if you already have the service manual and are stuck because the part number is wrong, this catalog fixes that.

How do I find the correct part number for my SRM48-TM3160?

Locate the figure for the system you’re working on – for example, Fig. 3 for blade system. Find the key number on the diagram. Read across the row to see which model variants that part fits. Match your machine’s serial number to the range shown in the lower column. Then use that part code to order. The catalog also explains the meaning of symbols like “*” for standard parts or “T” for optional parts.

Are the diagrams clear enough for a beginner?

Yes. Each figure is a clean line drawing with callouts. The key table is printed adjacent. The manual also explains how to interpret the columns – key, part code, description, type of model, remarks – on page 1. A beginner might take a few minutes to understand the serial number breaks, but once you do, it’s straightforward.

You’re working on a TM3160 with a blown cylinder or a worn belt. You need the factory part code, not a cross‑reference that might be wrong. This OEM catalog gives you the exploded view and the exact number. Access the Factory Manual from AutoRepairManuals and keep it on your tablet or printed out next to the mower. One job, one part ordered, done.
