Massey Ferguson 7246 COMBINE Parts Catalog

If you have ever spent an afternoon chasing a part number through three different aftermarket websites only to end up with the wrong gasket or a bracket that doesn’t line up, you understand why I will not walk past a photocopied parts list. I have been turning wrenches in San Antonio for 28 years, and I can tell you that guessing a part number costs you time and money. The Massey Ferguson 7246 COMBINE Parts Catalog from AutoRepairManuals is a factory OEM document – 842 pages of exploded views, genuine part numbers, and serial number breaks. No third-party interpretation, no missing cross-references.

Why an OEM Parts Catalog Beats Aftermarket

Aftermarket parts lists are often scanned from faded copies, and the guy who did the scanning did not care if the part number for a cylinder head cover gasket was correct. This catalog comes straight from Massey Ferguson. Page 010-0010 shows the Cylinder Head Cover assembly with item numbers, part numbers like LA323015750 for the cover and LA323017750 for the plug, and the gasket part number LA323015850. That kind of accuracy keeps a combine running through harvest instead of sitting in the shed waiting for a return.

842 Pages of Factory Specs – What You Get

Every page is organized by assembly. The Engine section starts at page 010-0005, listing the complete engine assembly with serial number ranges: up to engine number LA322966200 and from engine number LA323199100. That is critical when the dealer asks for your serial number. Exploded diagrams show exactly how each component fits, so you can spot a missing bolt or a wrong bracket before you order. The bookmarks take you straight to the section you need – no flipping through 800 pages blind.

Engine Section Breakdown

The OCR excerpt from this manual shows the engine page: item 1 is the complete engine (LA322966200 up to, LA323199100 from). That level of detail applies to every system on the 7246 Combine. Page 010-0010 covers the Cylinder Head Cover – cover, plug, gasket. Each item has a unique part number. If you need the separator, the feeder house, or the hydraulic system, the catalog breaks them down the same way. For context on agricultural machinery standards, see the Automotive Industry Overview – but this manual is the real reference for your MF 7246.

3 Systems You Can Identify Parts For

Engine assembly and cylinder head. Threshing and separation system. Cab and electrical components. Each section has its own index. You do not need to guess which illustration matches your machine – the serial number splits tell you exactly where your combine falls.

Audience Fit – Who Needs This Catalog

Farmers maintaining their own fleet. Shop owners who order parts for multiple combines. DIY mechanics who work on heavy equipment. If you have a 7246 Combine sitting in your yard and you need a part, this catalog saves you the trip to the dealer with a torn-off part in your hand. Take it from someone who has done that walk of shame – having the part number before you call is worth the price of the manual. This level of detail is what separates OEM documentation from generic aftermarket catalogs, as noted in the Automotive Industry Overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this parts catalog to repair my combine?

No, this is a parts catalog, not a service manual.

Does this manual include torque specifications?

Parts catalogs do not contain torque specs or repair procedures. For that you need the factory service manual. However, this catalog is the only way to get the correct OEM part numbers before you start the repair. Without the right part number you might bolt on a cylinder head with the wrong gasket – and that gasket failure will cost you a lot more than a service manual. Check the related manuals below for service documentation.

Is this a reprint or a scan?

This is a direct OEM digital file from Massey Ferguson.

How do I find the part number for the cylinder head cover gasket?

Open the catalog, go to page 010-0010, and find item 3 – part number LA323015850. That gasket is listed with a clear exploded view.
