Michigan 35AWS, 35R Parts Catalog – 221 Pages of OEM Exploded Views

When you’re hunting down a part number for a Michigan 35AWS or 35R tractor shovel, guessing gets expensive. I’ve seen guys order a whole brake assembly when all they needed was a wheel cylinder seal, because the aftermarket listing was wrong. That doesn’t happen with this 221-page Parts Catalog. It’s the same paper manual Clark Equipment Company printed in the U.S.A. back when these machines were built. No reprints, no scanned blurry pages — you get the factory index and exploded views that match the hardware on your shop floor.

Axle Group and Differential Breakdowns

You’ve got front and rear axle assemblies laid out with separate sections. The manual shows one page for the front axle assembly (section 1 B5) and another for the rear (1 B13). Differential and carrier assemblies get their own callouts: front axle (1 C5), rear axle (1 C6), and even the rear driving steer differential (1 C3). If you need planet carrier parts, those are on page 1 C7 for the front and 1 C9 for the rear. Each exploded view labels every bolt, shim, and bearing with a part number. No need to call the dealer and spell out your serial number over the phone.

Brake Group: Master Cylinder and Wheel Cylinder Part Numbers

This catalog covers the front brake assembly (1 C13), rear brake assembly (1 D2), and the foot brake controls (1 D3). The master cylinder page (1 D4) shows the internal rebuild parts, while the wheel cylinders get their own pages for front (1 D5) and rear (1 D6). Even the main brake lines are mapped on page 1 D8. If you’re rebuilding the parking brake, the assembly is on page 1 D13 and the lever assembly on page 1 D14. That’s the difference between a one-hour brake job and a three-hour parts chase.

Hydraulic Pump and Converter Charging Identification

Three different hydraulic pumps live in these machines: front end equipment pump (2 D4), bucket and boom pump (2 D5), and converter charging pump (2 D6). The manual breaks them out individually with separate exploded views. The converter assembly page (1 F8) shows the torque converter internals, and the pressure regulating valve (1 F13) is right there. You’ll find the hydraulic reservoir (2 B2) and the lines for steering (2 B12) and bucket/boom (2 B4 and 2 B7).

Boom and Bucket Linkage: What’s Inside Each Exploded View

Boom assembly is on page 1 E4, bucket assembly on 1 E7, and the bucket linkage with indicator on 1 E10. Front end linkage is section 1 F1. If you’ve got a droopy bucket or a bent tie rod, the tie rod assembly is on page 1 C10. Each section gives you the exact orientation of pins, bushings, and seals. You don’t have to measure anything — the part number is right there on the page.

Source Validity: Why This Clark Equipment Manual Beats Aftermarket

I’ve seen aftermarket parts catalogs for the Michigan 35AWS that combine two different machine years on one page. That’s how you end up with a steering cylinder that doesn’t fit. This manual is OEM Clark Equipment — printed when the 35AWS and 35R were current. The index is laid out by function: Accelerator Pedal (1 A5), Air Cleaner (1 A11, system on 1 A13, connections on 1 A14), Muffler Exhaust (1 B2). Every page number references the original factory drawing. If you’re working on a machine that has had twenty years of field repairs, you need the original reference to sort out what’s been swapped.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this manual cover both the 35AWS and the 35R?

Yes. The cover says “Model 35AWS & R” and the index lists parts for both variants in one manual.

How do I find a part quickly if I don’t know the section name?

Use the printed index at the front of the manual. It’s organized alphabetically by group — for example, “Brake Group,” “Cylinder Group,” “Hydraulic Group.” Each entry points to a page number like (1 C13) or (2 D4). Flip to that page, and you’ll see an exploded drawing with callouts. Match the shape of the part on your bench to the drawing, then read the part number directly from the figure. That saves you from scrolling through endless digital menus or guessing based on a blurry photo.

Look, if you’re serious about keeping a Michigan 35AWS or 35R running without chasing parts three times, you need the factory reference on your bench. Access the Factory Manual now.
