Link-belt 700LX Parts Catalog

I’ve seen it a hundred times: a mechanic needs one hydraulic line, spends half a day flipping through aftermarket copies, and still orders the wrong part because the thread pitch is off or the serial number doesn’t match. That’s time you don’t get back. This Link-belt 700LX Parts Catalog is the real deal – OEM print, printed March 2012, straight from LBX Company LLC. 551 pages of part numbers, exploded views, and serial number breaks that guarantee you get the right component the first order. No third-party reprints, no scans that lost a decimal. This is what Link-Belt dealerships pull up when you call.

551 Pages of OEM Part Number Data

Every page in this manual is laid out like the factory intended. You get assembly breakdowns for the undercarriage, swing drive, boom, arm, bucket linkage – everything on the 700LX Tier III. The book number is 1130, and it covers the LX Series with specific serial number ranges. Need to know if a spool fits the EX Tier 3? The manual calls out the exact part number, not a generic cross-reference. No guesswork, no returns because the diagram was from a different model year.

Does This Parts Catalog Cover the Undercarriage?

Yes. The undercarriage section includes every track roller, sprocket, idler, and chain segment. Track tensioner assemblies are broken down with all seals and retaining rings. The same goes for the final drives – you get the gear sets, bearings, and housing part numbers. If you’re rebuilding a track frame, this manual is your checklist for ordering. I’ve used it myself to source a single worn-out roller without buying a whole kit.

3 Reasons You Need the Factory Parts Book, Not Aftermarket

First: aftermarket parts catalogs mix up left and right components. This OEM version draws each side separately with orientation callouts. Second: the serial number breaks. Link-Belt made changes mid-production; the manual lists exactly when a part supersedes. Third: the bolt and fastener callouts include grade and thread pitch – something third-party books often skip. That matters when a 12.9 bolt goes into the swing gear.

Electrical and Hydraulic Component Identification

Beyond mechanical parts, this catalog covers electrical and hydraulic components. You get the main control valve breakdown with spool part numbers, relief valve settings (though for actual specs you need the service manual), and the pilot manifold assembly. For electrical, it shows the wiring harness part numbers, fuse box layout, and sensor locations. If you’re tracing a connector that’s melted or replacing a proportional solenoid, you can order the exact sub-harness instead of splicing.

How to Read the Parts Breakdown Diagrams

Each diagram uses a numbered balloon system keyed to a parts list at the bottom of the page. The list includes the part number, description, quantity required per assembly, and any notes about paint or supersessions. On page 26 of the manual (general example), you’ll see a typical undercarriage spread. The index in the back lets you search by part number or description. Keep a highlighter handy; you’ll be marking pages as you build your order list.

Is this the same manual used by Link-Belt dealerships?

Yes. It’s the factory parts manual, same as dealerships use.

Can I use this to order parts online?

Absolutely. With the official part numbers from this catalog, you can cross-reference with any supplier. The manual includes exploded views and part number indexes. I’ve seen guys save hours of back-and-forth by having the right number the first call. No guessing, no returns because you ordered the wrong Series. The 700LX Tier III has specific variations; this manual notes serial number breaks.

If you’re working on a Link-belt 700LX, having the factory parts catalog on your tablet or printed out means fewer trips to the dealer. The part numbers are correct, the diagrams are clear. Access the Factory Manual and keep it next to your torque wrench.
