Schaeff HR 12 1999 Parts Catalog – Factory OEM for Terex HR 12

You’ve got an old HR 12 sitting in the yard, and you need to find a part number for the hydraulic pump. Grab a generic catalog from 2005, and you’re guessing – is that pump the same as the one on a later machine? Wasting time, ordering wrong parts, eating the return shipping. That’s the frustration every mechanic knows. This Schaeff HR 12 1999 Parts Catalog is the original factory document, not a reprint from some third party that scanned it sideways. It’s 187 pages of exploded views, part numbers, and assembly group breakdowns specific to serial numbers 355/4974 through 355/5586. No guesswork – you match the number on the machine to the catalog and order what Schaeff intended. I’ve seen too many jobs held up by aftermarket catalogs that swapped a bolt size or omitted a seal. This one won’t do that.

That matters when you’re waiting for a part that doesn’t fit.

Schaeff HR 12 1999 Parts Catalog: Structure and Usage

The catalog is organized by Baugruppen (main groups), starting with a guide for the user on page 3. You get a hierarchy: main group numbers like 2.000 (upper carriage), then subassemblies like 2.002 (oil tank). Each part illustration ties to a four-digit subassembly number. The index alphabetisch (alphabetic index, section 0.004) lets you search by part name in German, English, or French. If you’re used to Caterpillar parts books, the layout is similar – but Schaeff uses their own numbering system. Don’t skip reading the guide for user on page 3; it explains the legend for serial number cutoffs and how to read the parts list.

Baugruppen (Main Groups) – How the Catalog Is Organized

Section 0.002 lists all main groups. The catalog is broken down by subassemblies – engine, undercarriage, hydraulics, cab, etc. Every part belongs to a group, so you can flip to the correct section without scanning the whole book. The group numbers are printed in boxes next to each part, and you reference those to find the correct illustration page. I’ve seen guys try to order a track roller using only a description – wastes an hour. Use the group number from the index, go to that group, and you’ll see the exact exploded view with callouts. Saves time, saves your customer’s patience.

Does Your Serial Number Match the Valid Range?

This catalog covers HR 12 machines from serial number 355/4974 up to 355/5586. If your machine falls outside that range, you need a different edition. The serial number is stamped on the frame near the turntable bearing – check it before you order. I’ve had guys buy this catalog thinking all HR 12s are the same, then find their machine is 355/5700 and the part numbers differ. Schaeff changed parts across production runs. The catalog itself shows which parts apply to which serial range using the legend on page 4 – from/to symbols. Pay attention to that, or you’ll end up with the wrong final drive seal.

3 Reasons OEM Catalogs Beat Aftermarket Copies

First, the part numbers are verified by Schaeff – no transcription errors. Second, the illustrations are original factory scans, not redrawn. Third, the serial number cutoffs are exact; aftermarket catalogs often merge multiple editions and guess which parts fit. For general background on construction equipment documentation standards, see Automotive Industry Overview. Another resource is Automotive Industry Overview, but for the HR 12, stick with the OEM source.

Use the Alphabetic Index for Faster Searches

The index alphabetisch (section 0.004) lists every part name alphabetically with its main group and page reference. If you don’t know the German term, the catalog includes French and English equivalents – see the column headers on page 3. For example, “oil filter” is “Ölfilter” – look it up in the index, get the group number, flip to that group, and you’ll see the exact part number. No scrolling through hundreds of pages. This is the fastest way to find a part when you’re under a deadline.

FAQ

Can I use this catalog for HR 12 models after serial 355/5586?

No – it covers only 355/4974 to 355/5586.

How do I identify which main group a part belongs to?

Look at the Baugruppen list starting on page 3. Each subassembly has a four-digit number. The first two digits indicate the main group. For example, 2.000 is the upper carriage. Cross-reference with the index if you’re unsure. This catalog uses German, English, and French, so you can match terms. I’ve seen guys order the wrong hydraulic filter because they ignored the group number – don’t be that guy.

If you’re tired of guessing parts and eating return shipping, get the factory source. Access the Factory Manual and keep it on your tablet or printed – you’ll go back to it every time you need a track bolt or a seal.
