K-D Manitou K5705, K5797, K5755, K1479 2000 Parts Catalog

If you’ve ever tried ordering mast parts for a K-D Manitou using an aftermarket copy or a PDF that’s been scanned twice and lost half the page numbers, you already know the headache. Wrong rails. Misidentified cylinders. A part number that doesn’t match anything your dealer has in stock. That’s what happens when you skip the OEM source.

This is the K-D Manitou K5705, K5797, K5755, K1479 2000 Parts Catalog — 34 pages of factory illustrations, item numbers, and serial number tracking that tells you exactly which part goes where. Page 2 has the general information you need before you touch the phone. Mast Model Number stamped on the right side of the outer rail at eye level, Serial Number right below it. Write those down first, then open the manual. Otherwise you’re guessing, and guessing costs time and money.

Rail Assemblies and Cylinder Breakdown

Rail assemblies start on page 2 of the contents (page 3 of the PDF). You get exploded views of the outer and inner rails with each part itemized. Primary Cylinder Assembly on page 6, Secondary Cylinder Assembly on page 10. The manual calls out where to find the cylinder barrel stamp — upper portion of the barrel — so you can verify the part number even if your book is out of date. That kind of detail keeps you from ordering a 3-stage cylinder when you need a 2-stage.

Hydraulic System and Carriage Assemblies

Hydraulic System Assembly starts on page 20. Chain assemblies on page 16. Carriage Assemblies page 24, and a dedicated Side Shift Carriage Assembly page 26. If your mast has a side shift, that’s where you find the correct weldments and cylinder mounts. The Hose Kit Assembly (Internal) is on page 28; the Hose Reel Kit RH on page 30. Every assembly has a corresponding parts index at the back. No guesswork.

Who Needs This Catalog?

This is for the shop foreman who’s tired of cross-referencing aftermarket lists that don’t match the factory stamp. It’s for the mobile tech who needs to order parts before lunch and can’t afford a return. It’s also for the home garage guy with a K-D Manitou mast on a farm — if you can read a serial number and turn a wrench, you can use this. But you need the original print, not a re-scanned knockoff.

Source Validity: Why OEM Beats Aftermarket

Aftermarket parts catalogs for K-D Manitou often omit the serial number tracking instructions and the decals supplement. This one includes a Decals Supplement section after page 30. That matters when you’re replacing warning labels or model plates for a safety inspection. The manual also states clearly: “All Mast modifications must be authorized by K-D Manitou, Inc.” That’s your paper trail. A reprint won’t have that.

We sell only the factory-issued PDF from the original 2000 print run. No third-party re-draws, no missing pages. You get the full 34 pages, including the Parts Index.

3 Things to Check Before Ordering Parts

1. Mast Model Number — stamped on the identification plate, right side of outer rail at or above eye level.
2. Mast Serial Number — required for all parts orders. Page 2 explains where to find it.
3. Cylinder Barrel Stamp — upper portion of the barrel, near the weld. Page 6 and 10 show the exact location.

FAQ

Does this cover the K5797 mast with side shift?

Yes. The catalog includes Side Shift Carriage Assembly (page 26) and both primary and secondary cylinder assemblies that apply to the K5797 model.

How do I know if my cylinder matches the part number in the book?

Find the stamped part number on the upper portion of the cylinder barrel. Compare it to the illustration and part number on page 6 or page 10. If the stamp is worn or missing, you’ll need the mast serial number to cross-reference with K-D Manitou’s records. The manual tells you that on page 2.
