New Holland 580 1992 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Specs

I’ve seen too many guys waste a Saturday because they ordered the wrong hydraulic cylinder for a pickup lift. That’s a day gone, plus return shipping. The New Holland 580 1992 Parts Catalog stops that nonsense cold. This is the factory-issued document, printed March 1992, part number 5058010. 132 pages of exploded-view diagrams and genuine part numbers. Not a scan of a scan—this is the original Ford New Holland release. If you’re turning wrenches on a 580 baler and you don’t have this, you’re guessing. I don’t guess.

Let me walk you through what’s in here and why it matters on a real workbench.

132 Pages of Exploded Diagrams – Figure 4 Through 26

Flip to Figure 4 and you’ll see the Axle & Wheel group, pages 1-1 and 1-13. Each figure breaks down an assembly—bolts, bushings, seals, the whole stack. Figure 32 shows the Cylinder B49372 Components for the hydraulic pickup lift, pages 1-87 and 1-89. Need the plunger assembly? Figure 25, page 1-57. The Table of Contents lists 37 figures covering every major system: Feeder Drives, Gearbox, PTO, Plunger, Hydraulic cylinders, Bale chutes. Every part has a line number and a Ford New Holland part number. You match that to your inventory order. No “looks about right” guessing.

I keep a copy in the shop for our 580 baler customer jobs. When a guy comes in with a broken tongue swing cylinder, I don’t measure and hope—I look up Figure 36, grab the part number, and call it done.

When You Need a Part Number Fast – Factory Indexing

This catalog is organized by figure and page. Want the Feeder Shielding? Figure 21, page 1-55. Need the Rotary Feeder Crank Assy? Figure 16, page 1-53. The manual uses left/right from operator’s seat facing forward—stated right on page 2. That small detail saves you from ordering the wrong-handed bracket. I’ve seen mistakes cost $200 in return shipping. This catalog eliminates that.

And here’s the thing: aftermarket parts websites pull specs from third-party databases. They often transpose part numbers or miss hardware. This catalog lists the common hardware separately—bolts, washers, nuts that aren’t included with the service part. That detail is on page 2, General Information. If you skim that page, you’ll order a hydraulic pump (Figure 34, page 1-93) and find out the mounting bolts aren’t included. The catalog tells you that up front.

Factory Spec Data vs Aftermarket Parts Lists – Why OEM Matters

I’ve tested aftermarket “replacement” parts for a New Holland 580. The aftermarket catalog listed a different cylinder seal kit for the Hydroformatic Bale Tension Kit (Figure 33, pages 1-87, 1-89, 1-91). It leaked after 40 bales. The OEM part number from this catalog fixed it. Factory documentation is not just about accuracy—it’s about liability. If you put the wrong part in a hydraulic system on a baler that runs at 2,500 psi, you’re not just wasting money. You’re risking a failure that could throw steel. I don’t take that risk. Neither should you.

For more background on why OEM specs matter in heavy equipment, check this Automotive Industry Overview. It’s not a manual site, but it covers the engineering standards behind these documents.

Does This Manual Cover the Hydraulic Systems?

Yes. Multiple figures cover hydraulic components: Cylinder B49372 components (Figure 32), Hydraulic Pickup Lift Kit (Figure 31), Hydraulic Pump (Figure 34), Hydraulic Tongue Swing Kit (Figure 3), and Hydraulic Cylinder for tongue swing (Figure 36). Each one gives you an exploded view with part numbers for seals, pistons, hoses, and fittings. If you’re rebuilding a hydraulic cylinder on a 1992 580 baler, this is the only parts list you should trust. Page 1-87 has the cylinder breakdown. The aftermarket sites often merge multiple model years—this catalog is specific to the 580 model and 1992 build. The difference matters.

Who Needs This Parts Catalog – and Who Doesn’t

If you’re a home garage guy who owns a 580 baler and wants to order the correct parts for a Plunger rebuild (Figure 25) or a PTO Clutch Assy (Figure 11), this is for you. If you’re a shop that services agricultural equipment and needs to reference part numbers for a customer’s 580, you need this. The audience is anyone who hates returning parts. Beginners will appreciate the clear numbering—each figure has a parts list with descriptions. If you’re a pro, you already know why OEM beats reprints.

Also check Ford New Holland 853 1993 Parts Catalog if you work on that platform. These are all OEM factory documents from our site.

Here’s a real-world example from last week: a guy brought in a 580 baler with a broken feeder drive shaft. He ordered a shaft from an aftermarket warehouse based on a generic cross-reference. It was 1/4 inch too short. I pulled up Figure 14 (Feeder Drives Shaft Assy, pages 1-35/1-37/1-39), found the OEM part number, and he had the correct shaft installed the next day. That’s 132 pages of money saved.

3 Reasons You’ll Trust This Manual Over a Digital Scan

First, it’s the original Ford New Holland print—Issue 3-92. Second, the page numbers match the factory layout, not a reorganized PDF. Third, the General Information on page 2 warns you that hardware isn’t included with service parts. Scans from copy shops often miss that page or crop it. You get the full 132 pages, no cuts.

FAQ

Is this manual just a parts list, or does it have diagrams?

Both. Each figure is an exploded-view diagram with part numbers. For example, Figure 32 shows the Cylinder B49372 with every seal, piston, and snap ring labeled.

I need a torque spec for the cylinder bolts on my 580 baler. Does this catalog include that?

No. This is a parts catalog—it lists part numbers, not torque values. You need the official service manual for torque specs. Our site carries the New Holland 580 Service Manual separate from this parts catalog. I always tell guys: own both. The parts catalog gets you the correct part, the service manual tells you how to install it safely. Never torque a hydraulic line without the factory spec.
