Schäffer 900T, 930T 2008 Parts Catalog

If you’re hovering over an aftermarket parts list for a Schäffer 900T or 930T, stop. I’ve watched guys order the wrong steering cylinder seal kit three times in one week because some third-party catalog had a part number that was close but not exact. That’s downtime you don’t bill for. This is the factory spare parts list from 2008 – 229 pages of exploded views and OEM part numbers, not a guess in sight.

Cylinder Breakdown: Steering, Lift, and Compensation

Every hydraulic cylinder on these loaders gets its own section. The TOC starts with E1 Lenkzylinder (Steering cylinder), then E2 Hubzylinder (Lift cylinder), E3 Kompensationszylinder (Compensation cylinder), and E4 Werkzeugzylinder (Tool cylinder). That’s four separate chapters for cylinders alone. You want the exact part number for the seal kit on the telescope cylinder? That’s E5 Teleskopzylinder. No generic “cylinder assembly” grouping – each one is isolated so you don’t mix up a lift cylinder part with a steering cylinder part. I’ve seen that happen. Don’t be that guy.

What the 229-Page Parts Catalog Actually Covers

Beyond cylinders, this catalog covers the whole machine: hydraulic filters (E6), steering hydraulics (E7), work hydraulics for the front frame and telescope arm (E8.1, E8.2, E8.6), the hydraulic control unit (E9), drive hydraulics for both 20 km/h and 35 km/h variants (E10.1, E10.2), pedals (E15), engine cover and lining (E16.1, E16.3), frame (E17), telescope arm inner and outer (E18.1–E18.5), battery/lighting/counterweight (E19), electric system and wiring harness (E20), steering column and instrument panel (E21), clutch (E22), fuel system (E23), exhaust (E24), air cleaner (E25), water/oil radiator (E26), axles with cardan shaft and tires (E29), brake systems (E30.1, E30.3), pneumatic air brakes (E31.1, E31.3), air conditioning (E32), adhesive labels (E35), and the cabin Dieteg type sections (K1.1–K1.8).

The Parts Catalog also includes front and rear axle chapters for the AP-R 720 – drive train, differential, axle bridge, output, and brake (A15.x, A16.x) plus versions for 20 km/h and 35 km/h executions from December 2007 onward. That’s coverage you won’t find in a generic parts list.

Brake System Differences: 20 km/h vs. 35 km/h

Two speed variants, two different brake part numbers. Section E30.1 is the brake system for the 20 km/h machine; E30.3 is for 35 km/h. Same goes for the pneumatic air brakes – E31.1 vs E31.3. These are not interchangeable. I’ve had a shop order the 20 km/h caliper rebuild kit for a 35 km/h machine and wonder why the piston didn’t fit. It’s printed right in the catalog. Use it.

Using This Catalog with the 900T and 930T

Whether you’re working on a 900T or a 930T, this single catalog covers both. The cabin section (Kapitel Kabine Dieteg) applies to both type numbers. The axle chapters are shared. The only difference you need to watch is the brake system variant – verify your machine’s speed rating before ordering. If you’re a home garage guy who bought one of these loaders at auction, this catalog saves you from calling the dealer and hoping they still have a paper copy. If you’re a pro, it means you’re not wasting billable hours cross-referencing aftermarket numbers.

Source Validity: OEM Print vs. Aftermarket Parts Lists

This is the original OEM print from Schäffer, dated February 2008. The file name says Schaffer_900T-930T_2008_Parts_Catalog_de-en-36814014890.pdf – that’s the factory document, not a scan of a reprint from a third party. Aftermarket parts catalogs often copy the exploded view but substitute their own part numbers or omit revisions. This one includes the revision 02 table of contents (pages 4 and 5) with the exact chapter structure. When I see a parts list that claims to be OEM but doesn’t have the German section headers like “Lenkzylinder” and “Hubzylinder”, I know it’s a rip. This one does. For a deeper look at how these catalogs fit into the broader Automotive Industry Overview, the key is that genuine factory literature prevents ordering mistakes. Period.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this manual include wiring diagrams?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It lists part numbers only.

Can I use this for the 930T model?

Yes. The catalog covers both 900T and 930T models from 2008. The TOC lists separate sections for each variant, including the cabin Dieteg type for both. The front and rear axle chapters apply to AP-R 720 axles used on both models. However, note the differences in brake system part numbers between the 20 km/h and 35 km/h variants – sections E30.1/E30.3 and E31.1/E31.3. Always verify your machine’s serial number against the part number groups listed in each chapter.

Stop guessing on part numbers. Grab the PDF and get the right seals, cylinders, and hydraulic components the first time. Access the Factory Manual from AutoRepairManuals and keep it on your shop tablet or print the pages you need. Your machine will thank you – and so will your wallet.
