Skytrak 6036, 6042 2014 Parts Catalog

If you’re ordering parts for a Skytrak 6036 or 6042 and you’re using a third-party list, you’re gambling. One wrong part number and the machine sits. This is the genuine 2014 Skytrak 6036, 6042 2014 Parts Catalog – 364 pages of factory diagrams and OEM part numbers. No aftermarket copy. No reprints. I’ve been wrenching for 28 years, and I’ve seen too many jobs stalled by parts that don’t fit because someone used a generic list. This catalog fixes that.

364 Pages of Factory Parts Breakdowns

Every page in this binder comes straight from Skytrak (JLG). The effectivity page on page 2 tells you which serial numbers are covered – starting from S/N 0160045066 and including 0160042742, 0160042747, and 0160042755. That matters because later revisions (A through F) were issued between 2012 and 2014. You’re getting the final F revision from April 2, 2014. Each figure is an exploded view with callouts tied to a parts list. You don’t have to guess which bolt goes where – it’s right there in black and white. The table of contents breaks down into 9 sections, each with multiple figures. For the frame and covers alone, there are two figures. For the boom, seven figures cover installation, each boom section, chains, and the quick attach. That level of detail is why you use this instead of a PDF from a forum.

Does This Catalog Cover Your Serial Number Range?

Open to the effectivity page (page 2) and check the serial number ranges. The manual specifically covers 6036 and 6042 models with S/N 0160045066 and after, plus the three earlier units listed. If your machine falls outside those numbers, you need a different catalog. Don’t order this thinking it fits all – that’s how you waste money. The catalog also notes machine configuration via a decal. If your unit has the Ultra Low Sulfur Fuel decal, you follow the ULS parts path. If not, it’s the LS path. That’s covered on page 5. Ignore that step and you’ll order the wrong fuel system components. I’ve seen it happen.

Frame, Boom, and Attachments – Sections 1 Through 3

Section 1 covers the frame and attaching parts, including covers. Section 2 is the boom – from installation to the retract chain. Section 3 is attachments: tilt carriages, side shift carriages, forks, buckets, grapple buckets, truss booms, and even an 8-foot mast. Each figure has its own parts list. For example, Figure 3-7 is for forks alone; Figure 3-11 covers buckets. If you need a specific pin lock installation, that’s Figure 3-10. The catalog groups everything by function, so you can flip to the right section without thumbing through unrelated pages. That saves time when the machine is down and the customer is waiting.

Engine and Drivetrain Coverage – Sections 4 and 5

Section 4 covers the engine and attaching parts: engine installation, fuel system (with separate ULS/LS parts), radiator and oil cooler mounting, air cleaner assembly, exhaust system, and isolation coupler. Section 5 is the drivetrain – front and rear axles with detailed breakdowns of input shafts, limited slip differentials, casing, M-disk brakes, joint housings, planetary drives, and the ZF transmission with all its coupling groups and control unit. Figure 5-2 through 5-16 cover the axles in excruciating detail. If you’re rebuilding a front axle, you need these diagrams to identify the correct shims and seals. Aftermarket lists often skip the small parts – this catalog doesn’t.

Hydraulic Circuits and Components – Sections 8 and 9

Section 8 maps out the hydraulic circuits: supply, dump, steer select, service brake, lift cylinder, extend/retract cylinder, tilt, auxiliary hydraulic, and frame level. Section 9 lists each cylinder individually – lift, extend/retract, attachment tilt, tilt compensating, frame level, Stabil-Trak, side tilt carriage, side shift carriage, and the 72-inch 90-degree swing carriage cylinder. If you’re troubleshooting a leak or replacing a seal, you need the exact part number for the cylinder kit. This catalog gives you that. The circuit diagrams in Section 8 also show hose routings and fitting callouts. You won’t find that level of hydraulic detail in a generic manual.

Machine Configuration: LS vs ULS – Why It Matters

The machine configuration page (page 5) is not optional reading. Determine if your unit has the Ultra Low Sulfur Fuel decal. If it does, all references in the catalog will say ULS for that machine. If not, it’s LS. This affects parts in Section 4 (fuel system) and possibly hydraulic components. Ordering the wrong injector or fuel filter because you assumed the machine was one type is a rookie mistake. The catalog is designed to be used side by side with the machine – check the decal first, then order. The effectivity page also lists the revision history (A through F) so you know your copy is current. That alone is worth the price if you’ve ever been stuck with obsolete part numbers.

Q: Can I use this catalog to order parts for a 6036 with serial number starting with 01600?

A: Yes, if your serial number falls within the range listed on the effectivity page.

Q: What’s the difference between LS and ULS configurations?

A: The manual includes two configurations – Low Sulfur (LS) and Ultra Low Sulfur (ULS). The machine configuration page (page 5) tells you which one applies based on a decal on the machine. If you order the wrong fuel system or hydraulic part, you’ll waste time and money. This catalog gives separate part numbers for each. For example, Section 4 Fuel System has different parts for ULS vs LS. Always check the decal before referencing the parts. Using the wrong configuration can lead to incorrect fitment and potential safety issues. The catalog’s effectivity page also notes the revision history, so you know you’re working with the latest update.
