Manitou S402TC-D, S502TC-D, S602TC-D, S404TC-D, S504TC-D 1993 Parts Catalog

I’ve been turning wrenches for 28 years. I know what happens when you order a part from a blurry aftermarket PDF. You get the wrong seal, the wrong bearing, then you wait another week. This Manitou S402TC-D, S502TC-D, S602TC-D, S404TC-D, S504TC-D 1993 Parts Catalog fixes that. It’s an original OEM print — not some third-party rehash with missing pages and swapped illustrations. If you’re maintaining any of these Manitou models and don’t have this 184-page book on your bench, you’re throwing time and money away.

Parts Index: The Only Way to Start a Rebuild

Page 1 lays out the entire CONTENTS and PARTS INDEX. You flip there first. Find your system — Brake, Steering, Engine, Transmission, Cooling, Fuel, Electrical — then jump to the corresponding section. Each system has its own chapter: BRAKE & ACCELERATOR ASSEMBLIES is chapter 2, ENGINE AND EXHAUST SYSTEM is chapter 6, TRANSMISSION is chapter 7, COOLING SYSTEMS is chapter 8, AIR CLEANER & FUEL SYSTEM is chapter 9, ELECTRICAL is chapter 10, FRAME chapter 11, DECALS chapter 12. Every part is illustrated with an item number. Match that number to the parts list on the same page. No guesswork.

If you’ve ever tried to rebuild a forklift transmission using a generic diagram, you know the pain. This catalog gives you the exact part numbers for the S402TC-D, S502TC-D, S602TC-D, S404TC-D, and S504TC-D. It even includes serial number ranges for McGee Bros. models — see page 2 for the list of serial numbers. That level of detail saves you from ordering a part that won’t fit, then waiting on a return.

Is This the Right Catalog for Your Manitou?

If your machine is a S402TC-D, S502TC-D, S602TC-D, S404TC-D, or S504TC-D (and the S604TC-D is also listed), this is the factory book for it. The cover says “Parts Manual,” catalog B253, dated R01-93. The general information section on page 3 tells you exactly what numbers you need when ordering: truck model, serial number, attachment model and serial, powertrain number, mast model and serial, engine number. Record those before you pick up the phone. Manitou North America’s parts department is listed there — 800-425-3727 — but with this catalog you can order direct from the illustrations.

One thing that drives me nuts: guys who skip the FILTER CHART. It’s right after the Parts Index. That page is your quick reference for oil, fuel, air, and hydraulic filters. Don’t assume your local auto parts store cross-reference is correct. Use the factory filter numbers from this catalog.

Engine and Exhaust System: Chapter 6 Breakdown

Chapter 6 covers the ENGINE AND EXHAUST SYSTEM. These units run diesel powertrains — you’ll want to read up on this Wikipedia article on diesel engines to understand the fundamentals, but the part numbers you need are here. Pistons, rings, gaskets, injection components, exhaust manifold — all illustrated with item numbers and quantities per truck model. The catalog notes that standard hardware like nuts and bolts may not have part numbers; replace them with grade five zinc hardware. That’s the kind of real-world tip you won’t find in a reprint.

3 Common Mistakes When Ordering Parts

First, ignoring the serial number range. Page 2 lists specific serials for McGee Bros. models. If your truck falls outside those, you need a different revision. Second, assuming 2WD and 4WD parts are the same. The catalog clearly labels which illustrations apply to 2WD or 4WD. Third, skipping the FILTER CHART — I already said that, but I’ll say it again because I’ve seen guys order the wrong oil filter three times in a row. Don’t be that guy.

When you need to cross-reference a part, the PARTS INDEX APPENDIX at the back of the book is your cross-reference. It’s not just a list — it’s organized by part number for quick lookup. That appendix alone is worth the price of the catalog.

Transmission and Cooling: Factory Specs Matter

TRANSMISSION chapter 7 includes Ford transmission production codes — the code is on the right side of the transmission housing. The catalog shows you where to find it on the component identification page (page 4). COOLING SYSTEMS chapter 8 gives you the radiator, fan, hoses, and thermostat parts for all five models. Use the factory part numbers. Aftermarket substitutes might fit, but they won’t have the same flow characteristics. If you’re rebuilding a cooling system, you need the right shroud and fan blade. This catalog has it.

Does this catalog include torque specs for cylinder head bolts?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It lists part numbers and quantities only. You need the service manual for torque values.

How do I find the part number for a brake assembly on an S504TC-D?

Turn to BRAKE & ACCELERATOR ASSEMBLIES (chapter 2). Find your specific model in the illustration. Each part has an item number. Look up that item number in the parts list on the same page. The part number is directly to the right of the item number. If you don’t see your model listed, check the serial number range on page 2 — your truck may be covered under a different model variant. Also verify if you have 2WD or 4WD, because the illustrations differ. I’ve seen too many guys order 4WD brake parts for a 2WD truck because they didn’t read the note. Don’t be that guy.

Can I use this catalog for the S604TC-D?

Yes. The cover lists S604TC-D in the model lineup, so parts for that model are included where applicable.

What is the FILTER CHART and why is it important?

The FILTER CHART follows the PARTS INDEX. It lists all factory filter part numbers by model. Use it to order the correct oil, fuel, air, and hydraulic filters. Aftermarket cross-references are often wrong. Stick with the factory numbers.

You’ve got the serial numbers, you’ve got the illustrations, you’ve got the part numbers. Now stop hoping you’ll find the right part and start working from the factory source. Access the Factory Manual and put it on your bench. Your time is worth more than guessing.
