Manitou M SERIES E2, MRT2150 Parts Catalog

You’ve got a Manitou MRT2150 on the lift, and you’re staring at a front axle brake disc that doesn’t match the last one you ordered. The aftermarket catalog showed one part number, but the serial number on your machine says different. I’ve seen this waste a full afternoon. This Manitou M SERIES E2, MRT2150 Parts Catalog is the factory print that kills the guesswork. 1282 pages, no reprints, no recycled data. Every part is keyed to specific serial number ranges, axle variants, and assembly dates. If you’ve ever pulled a wrong seal or ordered a pump that didn’t fit, this is the tool you needed before you touched the phone.

Axle Housing and Differential – Where the Serial Numbers Matter

The TOC lists front axle housing for axle 657266 with five different serial number breaks (500, 500A, 500B, 500C). That’s not overkill—that’s reality. Manitou changed part designs during production, and using the wrong housing gasket or spindle nut costs you downtime. The same applies to the rear axle 607504 with six housing variants (600 through 600D). This catalog gives you the exact illustration code and page number for your serial number. For front axle 657266 differential, the section starts on page 645. You look up your S/N range, find the correct differential assembly, and order the right ring and pinion set the first time. No cross-referencing three different third-party sites.

Hydraulic System – Pump, Distributor, and Manipulators

The section IMP.IDRAULICO PRINC. covers the main hydraulic pump, distributor, manipulator, and suction line. Each sub-section has an exploded diagram with individual part numbers. Need the pressure line seal for the manipulator? The diagram shows the correct o-ring and backup ring. Do not trust aftermarket hydraulic catalogs for these components—they often consolidate multiple part numbers into one “universal” seal that leaks under working pressure. Stick with the factory breakdown. If you’re rebuilding the main pump, the catalog shows the rotor assembly, gear pump, and limitator with separate part numbers. That means you order only what’s worn, not an entire new unit.

Electrical and Cabling – Avoid the Rat’s Nest

The IMP. ELETTRICO section runs from fuel level sensors to the rotating collector to the complete cabling for the front chassis and rear turret. When a wire chafes inside the boom and you need the exact harness segment, this catalog shows each cable assembly with its length and connector type. The section “Cabl.anter.carro” and “Cabl.poster.torretta” break down the loom by location. You can order the right sub-harness without replacing the entire machine wiring. Also covered: the fuse box (scatola fusibili e relè), logic box, and electro-fan box. Don’t waste time tracing wires with a multimeter if you can get the factory wiring diagram and part number from the same source.

Brake System – Front Axle Brake Discs and More

The PDF file name itself mentions BRAKE_DISCS_FRONT_AXL, so you know the manual covers that area thoroughly. Under “Ponte anteriore(657266)” the brake section gives you the disc, caliper, and hydraulic lines with specific part numbers. The same applies to all three front axle variants (657266, 690363, 729427) and rear axles. If you’re doing a brake overhaul, verify the axle number on your machine (stamped on the housing) and grab the illustration from the catalog. That saves you from ordering the wrong pad set because the aftermarket catalog listed one size for all models.

Transmission and Drivetrain – Inching, Cooling, and Mounts

TRASMISSIONE includes the inching pedal, engine cooling and exhaust, air filter, fuel lines, accelerator and brake controls, engine mounts (two sub-sections), plus the entire hydrostatic drive pump and motor. For the hydrostatic pump, you get the rotor, hydraulic regulator, gear pump, limitator, and electrovalve as separate line items. Rebuilding a pump without this catalog means you end up buying a whole assembly when you only needed a seal kit. Also covered: the cardan shaft, front and rear axle mounts, and axle pivot supports. The catalog even shows the wheel part numbers under “Ruote Std.” So if you’re swapping tires or rims, you can get the right offset from the factory drawing.

OEM Factory Print vs. Third-Party Catalogs

Third-party parts catalogs often compress multiple serial number breaks into one “fits all” entry. That costs you money when the part doesn’t align. This is a direct factory print from Manitou North America. Every part number is original, every illustration matches the original engineering drawing. The catalog includes a numerical index (INDEX NUMERICO) so you can look up a part number and find all the assemblies that use it. That’s useful when you have a bin of old parts and need to know where they go. For a discussion of how diesel engines work in these machines, you can check this Wikipedia article on diesel engines for background, but for actual parts ordering, trust the factory manual.

Who Needs This Catalog and How to Use It

If you own a Manitou MRT2150 or M SERIES E2 telehandler—whether it’s a 3B6 “FAT” or “SLIM” variant—this catalog is your parts room. DIY mechanics: stop ordering parts by guesswork. Write down the serial number from your machine’s plate, then find the corresponding illustration in the catalog. Beginners: the index at the front (page 3 lists all section codes) makes it straightforward. Professional mechanics: use this to verify parts before you call the dealer, and you’ll cut phone time. Workshop owners: keep this on your shop tablet to avoid ordering mistakes that keep a customer’s machine down an extra day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this catalog the same as a repair manual?

No. This is a parts catalog. It shows exploded views, part numbers, and quantities. It does not contain torque specs or repair procedures. For that, get the service manual. But if you need to order the correct part for a Manitou MRT2150 or M SERIES E2, this is the only source you need.

How do I find a part if I only have the old part number?

Use the NUMERICAL INDEX at the back of the catalog. Look up your part number, and it tells you which illustration page it appears on. Then cross-reference with the serial number breaks to make sure you order the latest revision.
