Manitou 805441 2008 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Specs for Your 3‑Stage Mast

If you’re ordering replacement parts for a Manitou 805441 3‑stage mast and you don’t have the factory part numbers, you’re guessing. Guessing gets you the wrong cylinder, a week of downtime, and a phone call to a parts guy who asks for your serial number. I’ve seen it happen. This Manitou 805441 2008 Parts Catalog is the 36‑page OEM document that tells you exactly which part number goes where – no aftermarket interpretation, no blurry photocopies.

What’s Inside the 36‑Page Parts Catalog

The book is split into 13 numbered sections, starting with the Rail System (1.00) and working through Primary Cylinder (2.00), Secondary Cylinders (3.00), Chain System (4.00), Hydraulic System (5.00), and two hose kits – single function RH (6.00) and LH (7.00). Then you get Carriage ITA Type (8.00), Fork Positioners in 72‑ and 96‑inch widths (sections 12.00 and 13.00), and the 96‑pin fork option in section 9.00. Every illustration has an Item Number that aligns with a parts table showing the Manitou part number, description, and quantity. This is not a service manual – it’s a parts ID book. If you need torque values or disassembly steps, you want the service manual. But if you’re staring at a worn‑out cylinder and need the correct replacement, this catalog pays for itself on the first order.

Cylinder Identification: Primary and Secondary

Look at section 2.00 for the primary cylinder assembly and 3.00 for the secondary cylinders. Each cylinder assembly has a stamped part number on the barrel – the manual tells you where to find it (upper portion of the barrel). Match that to the illustration and you get the factory item number. The catalog calls out the exact seal kit and mounting hardware. Don’t try to cross‑reference a generic cylinder; the bore and stroke dimensions are specific to the 805441 mast. You’ll also see optional carriage assemblies listed under 8.00 – ITA hook type with 10” load backrest or shaft type. That matters when ordering the cylinder mounting pins.

Does This Manual Cover Your Mast Model?

This catalog is for the 805441 series 3‑stage mast built in 2008. If your serial number falls outside the range covered by that revision (catalog 809778, R08-08), you might need a later edition. The index on page 4 lists the exact mast model numbers referenced – 805069-04, 805154, 805070-2. If your mast ID plate shows one of those numbers, you’re good. If not, cross‑check with the K-D Manitou MVT 1230L MVT1230LC Parts Catalog – 264 Pages for larger mast families. The 2008 publication means the part numbers reflect that year’s production – later updates might supersede some items. Always confirm with your Manitou dealer if you’re ordering older stock.

Source Authenticity: OEM Factory Print vs Aftermarket Copies

AutoRepairManuals sells the original OEM file – same as what Manitou North America, Inc. prints in Waco, TX. The OCR text on page 1 shows the Manitou address and copyright notice. Aftermarket parts catalogs often redraw the exploded views, miss the item number alignment, or skip the “NOTE: check the top end of the Rail Assembly for stamped part no.” This 36‑page PDF preserves the original page layout, including the INDEX PAGE 1 structure that matches the printed book. If you’re working with a forklift that has been modified (which the manual says must be authorized by Manitou), you need the original document to trace superseded parts. Don’t risk a mismatch on a $400 primary cylinder.

3 Reasons You Need This Parts Catalog on the Bench

First, the part numbers are verified against the 805441 mast serial range. Second, the illustrations show the exact routing of the single‑function hose kits (RH and LH) – so you don’t order a 48‑inch hose when you need a 60‑inch. Third, the carriage section includes non‑side shift fork positioner dimensions – 32” ITA hook type with 10” backrest – so you get the right pin‑on forks. Without this catalog, you’re measuring by hand and hoping. I’ve seen guys order a secondary cylinder for a 72” fork positioner that was actually for a 96” unit. That’s a return shipping charge you don’t need.

FAQ: Common Questions About the Manitou 805441 Parts Catalog

Does this catalog include torque specs for cylinder bolts?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Torque values are found in the corresponding Manitou repair manual.

Can I use this to rebuild my primary cylinder?

You can identify the seal kit part number from section 2.00, but the catalog doesn’t include disassembly steps or cross‑hatch specifications. You’ll need the service manual for seal installation depth and bore inspection. Some cylinder assemblies have a stamped part number on the barrel – the catalog tells you where to look and which item number matches that stamp. That’s the starting point. If you don’t have the service manual, call Manitou North America parts department (800-425-3727) with the serial number and they’ll confirm the seal kit.

How do I find the right part number if my mast has been modified?

Write down the mast model number from the ID plate on the right side of the outer rail, then record the mast serial number. Check the index on page 4 to see if your model is listed (805069-04, 805154, or 805070-2). If it is, cross‑reference the item numbers. If modifications were made after manufacture, the catalog tells you that only Manitou North America can authorize changes. You’ll need to call them with the serial number to get updated part numbers.

What if my serial number isn’t covered by this 2008 catalog?

Then you need a later revision. Manitou updates these catalogs annually – the R08-08 date on the cover indicates 2008 revision 08. For newer masts, check the K-D Manitou K5705, K5797, K5755, K1479, K1787 1991 Parts Catalog for older units or K-D Manitou K5705, K5797, K5755, K1479 2000 Parts Catalog | OEM Factory Specs for late‑90s models. For general diesel engine background, see this Wikipedia article on diesel engines – but stick to the factory catalog for part numbers.

You don’t need to hunt through forums for a blurry screenshot of a parts page. Access the Factory Manual and get the exact part numbers Manitou used when your mast was built. That 36‑page PDF saves you the headache of returned parts and the cost of waiting.
