Schaeff SKB 600 1981 Parts Catalog – Factory OEM

If you’ve ever ordered a hydraulic hose based on a generic cross-reference only to find it’s two inches short and the fitting angle is wrong, you know the pain. This Schaeff SKB 600 1981 Parts Catalog kills that guessing. 236 pages of factory drawings and ten-digit part numbers direct from Schaeff-Terex. No aftermarket interpretation—just the exploded views Schaeff used to build the machine.

What’s Inside This 236-Page Parts Catalog

The table of contents breaks the SKB 600 into major assemblies: lift frame with loader shovel (Hubrahmen-Kipphebel-Lenker-Ladeschaufel-Schutz), front-rear carriage and oscillating center pivot (Vorderwagen, Hinterwagen, Pendel-Knickgelenk), hydraulic oil and diesel tank (Hydrauliköl- und Dieseltank), axle-U-joint-tires (Achse-Gelenkwelle-Bereifung), engine mounting (Motoreinbau), cover (Abdeckung), instrument panel and steering (Armaturenbrett und Lenkeinheit), travel pedal, service brake and handbrake. Every section starts with an exploded view and lists each part with its 10-digit number. On page 3 you get the ordering rules: machine type, serial number (e.g., 20/405), part number, quantity, shipping info. Skip those and you’ll get the wrong part.

Vorderwagen and Hinterwagen: Front/Rear Carriage and Oscillating Center Joint

Section 2 covers the chassis halves and the pendulum joint that lets the SKB 600 walk over rough ground. If you need bushings, pins, or the center articulation bearing, this is where you find the exact factory number. Aftermarket catalogs often lump these into “universal” kits—then you end up with a pin that’s 0.5 mm undersized and wallowed-out bores after 50 hours. Don’t learn that the hard way.

Hydraulic Oil and Diesel Tank: Exploded Diagrams for Assembly

Section 3 shows the hydraulic reservoir and the diesel tank with all fittings, baffles, and filler caps. If you’re replacing a tank because of a crack or contaminated oil, the diagram tells you which grommet and hose clamp Schaeff used. The part numbers cross to the original supply line. Using a generic cap can let dirt into your hydraulic system—that’s a pump rebuild you don’t want.

Ordering Parts: Why the 10-Digit Number Matters

Look at page 3 again. Schaeff prints a clear warning: “Die vollständige Angabe der zehnstelligen Zahl ist unbedingt erforderlich” — the complete ten-digit number is absolutely required. That number (e.g., 5 689 638 310) ties to a specific revision. If you order by description only, you might get a superseded part that doesn’t fit your serial number range. This catalog covers machines from serial 020/0400 to 020/0706. Check your plate before ordering.

Source Authenticity: OEM Schaeff vs Aftermarket

This is a direct scan of the 1981 factory print, not a third-party compilation. Aftermarket parts lists frequently omit the “ORIGINAL-SCHAEFF-Ersatzteile” note that appears on page 3: using parts of doubtful origin voids the factory warranty. For context on why OEM documentation carries weight in the Automotive Industry Overview, consider that Schaeff designed the SKB 600 around their own tolerances. A generic bearing might look the same but fail under loader stress.

FAQ

Does this parts catalog include torque specifications?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Torque specs for the SKB 600 are in the factory repair manual. Look for that separately.

Will these part numbers work for an SKB 600 built in 1983?

Only if the serial number falls between 020/0400 and 020/0706. The edition is marked “valid from serial no.” on the title page. Later machines may have different revisions. Verify your serial number against the range listed.

Are the diagrams detailed enough to identify a seal for the oscillating pivot?

Yes. The exploded views show every component in the pendulum joint (section 2) with callout numbers that match the part list. You can trace the exact seal number. Aftermarket catalogs often omit the backup ring—this one doesn’t. Use the diagram to confirm the stack-up before ordering.

Can I use the 10-digit number to order directly from Schaeff?

Yes. That’s the purpose. Contact your local Schaeff dealer or the factory address listed on page 3. Give them the complete number and quantity. Expect to wait if the part is no longer stocked—but at least you’ll get the right one.
