Iseki TMG18, TF17, TF19 1995 Parts Catalog

You are working on an old Iseki compact tractor – maybe a TMG18 or a TF17 or a TF19 – and you need a part. Not a generic part, the exact part that came off the line. You look up a number online, order it, wait three days, and it’s wrong. The threads don’t match, the filter cup is a different depth. That’s what happens when you rely on aftermarket cross‑reference tables or scanned copies of photocopied manuals. This Iseki TMG18, TF17, TF19 1995 Parts Catalog is the actual factory document, 220 pages, printed in 1995. It tells you the part code, the quantity, the interchangeability status, even the color code if it’s a painted part. No interpretation needed.

I’ve been spinning wrenches since before most of you were born. In my shop we have a copy of this catalog for the old Iseki tractors that farmers still bring in. When a customer says his TF19 hydraulic suction filter is clogged, I open page 1 of this catalog and see the exact Iseki part number 1614-508-200-00, the O‑ring number V721-103-103-50, and the note that it fits HST models. That’s not a guess – it’s the factory record. You need that kind of certainty when the part costs $80 and the nearest dealer is two hours away.

What the Parts Catalog Actually Contains

This 1995 Parts Catalog covers three models: TMG18, TF17, and TF19. The document is built around exploded‑view drawings with a key column that points you to the part code, description, quantity per unit, and a type‑of‑model column showing which tractor each part fits. For example, if a part has an asterisk under TF17 but not under TF19, it’s not interchangeable. The catalog also handles option codes like H••••••HST (hydrostatic transmission) and S•••••• (independent PTO clutch) – you look at the model number stamped on your tractor’s plate, find the corresponding letter code, and then check which parts apply. That level of detail is what you pay for when you buy the factory manual instead of a reprint from some third‑party site.

Interchangeability and Color Codes – Why They Matter

One section you’ll use constantly is the interchangeability table (ITC). It uses three codes: 1 means new parts replace old parts; 2 means old parts replace new; 3 means they cannot be swapped. If you have a TF17 built in 1994 and you order a part that was revised in 1995, the ITC column tells you whether you can install the new version without modifying anything. The catalog also lists color codes for painted components – for instance, code 4G is Crystal Blue with spray‑type number 1300-957-001-10. Without this information, you might end up with a silver hydraulic cap on a blue tractor. That’s a small detail, but it matters to the guy who restores tractors for shows.

3 Audiences Who Need This Manual on the Shelf

Home‑garage owners who bought a used Isekicompact to maintain a few acres: you don’t have dealer support, and online parts lookup tools are often wrong for these older models. This catalog gives you the exact part code so you can order from a knowledgeable supplier.

Small engine and tractor repair shops that service agricultural equipment: you’ll save hours of cross‑referencing. When a farmer walks in with a torn suction hose on a TF19, you flip to the relevant page, read the QTY column, and know you need one filter assembly and two O‑rings. No wasted trips to the parts store.

Restorers and collectors: if you’re bringing a TMG18 back to original condition, the color code tables (page 2 of the catalog excerpt) and the interchangeability notes are essential to preserving authenticity.

Source Validity – Why OEM Beats Aftermarket

Look at the OCR excerpt from the original PDF: “Directions for use of Parts Catalogue” followed by a systematic explanation of model codes, part code structure, and color codes. That’s the kind of documentation you only get from the manufacturer. Aftermarket parts catalogs often combine multiple models into one generic book, omitting the option codes or the interchangeability columns. They might list a filter as fitting all TF series tractors, but your TF17 with a mid‑PTO needs a different port configuration. This catalog flags that with a ‘M••••••’ code. I have seen too many returns caused by trusting a $10 aftermarket reprint. Spend the money on the real thing once.

FAQ

Does this Parts Catalog include repair procedures or torque specs?

No. This is strictly a parts identification manual. It lists part codes, quantities, interchangeability, and color codes. For service procedures you need the separate factory service manual.

How do I know which part fits my specific tractor model – for example a TF19 with power steering?

Each part row has a column for “Type of Model” with checkmarks under TF17 and TF19. The head paragraph also explains option codes like “U••••••” for power steering. You match your tractor’s serial number (listed in the Remarks column) and the option codes stamped on the chassis plate. Then you read the part row – if there’s an asterisk under your model and an option code that matches, that part is standard. If it shows “T” the part is optional, if “R” it’s a replacement for originally equipped parts. The catalog walks you through all of that on page 1.

If you work on these tractors more than once a year, the smart move is to have the factory document open on your tablet or printed out. It cuts parts ordering time down to minutes and eliminates returns. Access the Factory Manual from AutoRepairManuals and keep it in your digital toolbox. You’ll never have to call a dealer and hope the parts guy has the old microfiche again.
