SCAT TRAK 224s 2000 Parts Catalog – Factory OEM Manual

You ever order a part for a mini excavator and get a box of wrong crap because some third-party catalog used a generic drawing? I have. That’s why I keep factory manuals on the bench. This SCAT TRAK 224s 2000 Parts Catalog is the genuine OEM document – not a reprint, not a scan of a scan. 134 pages of exploded views, part numbers, and group indexes that match what SCAT TRAK shipped from the factory. If you’re rebuilding a 224s or just tracking down a worn valve, this is the document you pull first. Automotive Industry Overview shows how critical OEM documentation is for heavy equipment. I’ve seen guys waste three days with aftermarket junk – don’t be that guy.

9 Assembly Groups Covered – From Undercarriage to Attachments

The manual splits everything into nine groups. Group 01 – Undercarriage Frame covers the track frame, sprockets, rollers. Group 02 – Turning Frame has the swing gear and turntable. Group 03 – Engine-Radiator lists the engine mounts, cooling system parts, and the radiator assembly. Group 04 – Control Valve-Controls shows the main control valve and pilot controls. Group 05 – Hydraulic and Electric System includes pumps, cylinders, hoses, and wiring. Group 06 – Operator’s Seat-Hood covers the cab, seat, and hood. Group 07 – Arms has the boom, arm, and bucket linkage. Group 08 – Decals-Accessories lists all decals and optional accessories. Group 09 – Tools covers special service tools. Each group has reference figures with callouts – you point at the broken part, you get the number.

Engine and Valve Components – Real Part Numbers

Need a replacement valve for the hydraulic system? Group 04 or Group 05. The catalog shows the exact valve assembly, spool, and seals – not some “compatible” replacement that may or may not fit. The engine section (Group 03) lists everything from the cylinder head gasket to the radiator cap. I’ve used this manual to order a thermostat housing gasket for a 224s – one call to the dealer, part in hand next day. That’s what a factory parts catalog does. No cross-referencing, no guessing.

Does This Manual Cover the SCAT TRAK 224s Model Year 2000?

Yes. The publication date is August 2000 (printed in U.S.A.). The manual covers the 224s mini excavator as built at that time. The index on page 3 lists all groups. Page 4 starts the Undercarriage Frame section. The catalog uses left/right orientation from the operator’s seat – check page 2 for the abbreviation guide. If your machine is a 2000 model 224s, this is the correct parts catalog. For other models like the 545, you’ll want SCAT TRAK 545 1999 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Manual or SCAT TRAK 545W 1999 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Parts Manual.

How to Read the Parts Diagrams – Reference Figures

Each group has numbered figures (e.g., Fig. 010, Fig. 030). The parts list below the diagram gives the item number, part number, description, and quantity. Abbreviations like SX (left-hand), OX (right-hand), ANT (front), POST (rear) are explained on page 2. If a part is not available separately, it’s marked NF (not as a single part). I’ve seen guys try to order a “NF” item as a single piece – doesn’t work. You buy the whole assembly. This catalog tells you that upfront.

Source Validity – Genuine OEM, Not Recycled Aftermarket

This is the original factory manual from SCAT TRAK. Part number 8090396. The PDF you access is a direct digital copy of the printed book – every page, every line. Automotive Industry Overview confirms that OEM documentation eliminates the inconsistencies found in aftermarket compilations. I’ve had aftermarket catalogs list the wrong bolt length for a track tensioner – cost me a day of downtime. This manual came from the same source as the machine’s assembly line. That matters when you’re ordering a $200 valve.

FAQ – Parts Catalog Questions

What years does this SCAT TRAK 224s parts catalog cover?

The manual was printed in August 2000 and covers the 224s model as manufactured at that time. It is specific to the 2000 production year.

Does it include wiring diagrams or just parts?

Parts only. This is a parts catalog – exploded views and part numbers. For wiring schematics, you’d need the service manual. Group 05 covers hydraulic and electric system parts, not wiring diagrams.

Can I use this manual for a SCAT TRAK 545?

No. The 545 is a different machine. Use SCAT TRAK 224s 2000 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Manual for your 224s. For the 545, look at SCAT TRAK 545 1999 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Manual.

If you’re working on a 224s, stop wasting time with generic catalogs. Access the Factory Manual – you’ll have every part number at your fingertips. No more ordering the wrong seal. No more guessing which sprocket fits. This is the document SCAT TRAK dealerships use.
