Iseki TM3160, TM3160F-ME4, RE4 2004 Parts Catalog

Ordering parts for an Iseki tractor without the factory catalog is a gamble. You end up with a box of wrong gaskets, a fuel filter that doesn’t fit, or a hydraulic line that’s off by a thread pitch. That’s lost time and money. This 161-page Parts Catalog – printed in Japan February 2004 – gives you the exact OEM part codes for the Iseki TM3160, TM3160F-ME4, RE4 tractors. It’s not an aftermarket reprint. It’s the binder your dealer uses.

Understanding the Parts Catalogue Layout

Page 1 lists the applicable models: TM3160F (four-wheel drive), TM3160 (two-wheel drive), M (mid PTO), RE4 (front/rear hitch & ROPS). The header block on page 2 shows columns: KEY, PART CODE, DESCRIPTION, TYPE OF MODEL, and REMARKS. You won’t find vague “fits all” descriptions here. Each row ties a part code to a specific tractor configuration. The ‘*’ marks standard parts; ‘T’ means optional; ‘R’ means replacement. That’s how you avoid ordering a bolt that threads into nothing.

One detail that saves time: The lower column under QTY includes a serial number range. -229 means parts up to serial 229; 230- means after. If your TM3160 has a serial number above 230, don’t order the old pin – you’ll need the updated one. This catalog flags that.

3 Critical Details in the Parts Catalogue

First, the interchangeability code (ITC). Three values: ‘1’ means new part replaces old without modification; ‘2’ means old can be used where new fits; ‘3’ means they are not interchangeable. Second, the COL column on page 2 lists color codes for painted parts – e.g., NEO BLUE spray can #1300-985-001-10. Third, the GRP column shows groups that can be swapped as assemblies. If your RE4 needs a bracket, check the GRP code first; you might buy a whole sub-assembly cheaper.

Does This Catalog Cover Every System on the TM3160?

Yes – engine, transmission, hydraulics, PTO, steering, electrical, body. Every component that bolts to the TM3160, TM3160F-ME4, or RE4 is exploded in a figure and listed with its part number. The OCR excerpt shows the first two pages of the engine case group. You get 161 pages of that. Need the fuel injection line? Part codes start with S655- or V211-. The catalog tells you quantity per machine, whether it’s sold by the meter, and if it needs adjustment (AR). That’s the difference between a guess and a repair that stays together.

Interchangeability Codes (ITC) Explained

Here’s where aftermarket parts books fail. They list one number and call it a day. Iseki’s catalog gives you ITC flags. For example, if the old part code shows ITC ‘1’, you can install the new part on any TM3160 without rework. If ITC ‘2’, you can use the old part on a new machine. If ITC ‘3’, don’t bother – they won’t swap. This matters when you’re trying to use NOS parts from a 2004 batch. Don’t trust a third-party website that doesn’t show ITC.

One more thing: the parts list includes “Other maker’s part code” in the Remarks column. That’s useful when cross-referencing to aftermarket filters or seals – but always confirm with the original code first. I’ve seen guys bolt a “compatible” bearing that lasted 200 hours. Factory catalog prevents that.

Why Factory Parts Catalog Beats Aftermarket

Aftermarket part catalogs often copy a subset of numbers, leave out serial-break info, and skip the ITC table. This is the OEM book from Iseki, printed 2004, 161 pages. It shows every nut, bolt, and seal with the exact dimensions – not a generic “engine gasket set”. You can verify against the parts you removed. The catalog uses metric part numbers but the drawings show imperial equivalent dimensions where applicable. I trust it because it’s the same document Iseki put in the dealer’s binder.

FAQ

Can I use this catalog for the TM3160 with serial number 150?

Yes. The catalog includes serial number breaks. If your machine is before serial 230, ignore the later parts. For after 230, the catalog lists separate codes. Check page 3 for the lower column serial range.

Does it include part numbers for the RE4 model?

Yes.

You need a parts catalog that doesn’t make you guess. This is it. Access the Factory Manual and stop ordering twice.
