Still R70-16 D, R70-18 D, R70-20 CD Parts Catalog

If you’re trying to order a part for a Still R70 series diesel forklift and the aftermarket catalog gives you a number that doesn’t match the bolt you’re holding, you know the frustration. Wasted time, wrong parts, a machine sitting idle while the warehouse manager taps his watch. I’ve been there. This is the factory parts catalog – the same one Still dealerships pull from. 3569 pages of OEM part numbers, exploded diagrams, and production-week splits. No guesswork.

3569 Pages of OEM Part Numbers

Every page in this Still R70-16 D, R70-18 D, R70-20 CD Parts Catalog was printed from the Still electronic documentation system. That means the part numbers you see – like the pulse generator under IC ENGINE or the brake assembly inside the drive axle – are the exact numbers Still stamped on the box. The catalog splits revisions by build week: motor up to week 13, 2003 and from week 14, 2003. Miss that split and you order the wrong motor mount bracket. The bookmarks are organized by major assemblies: PRODUCT INFORMATION, ELECTRIC MOTOR, IC ENGINE, IC ENGINE AUXILIARY PARTS, EXHAUST SYSTEM, MECHANICAL DRIVE AXLE, CHASSIS, DRIVER, STEERING SYSTEM, WHEELS AND TYRES, BRAKING SYSTEM, CONTROLS, INSTRUMENT, ELECTRICS; ELECTRONICS, HYDRAULIC, WORKING HYDRAULICS, VALVE, LOAD LIFTING SYSTEM, MAST, ATTACHMENT, SPECIAL EQUIPMENT, OTHER ACCESSORIES. That’s the full tree.

Diesel Engine Coverage: R7094-96

The catalog carries the internal code R7094-96, which covers the three diesel models in this series. Inside the IC ENGINE section you’ll find the engine block, the pulse generator, and the complete engine preheater. If your R70-20 CD has a cold-start issue, flip to the HEATER, COMPL. (engine preheater) subsection. That gives you the glow plug assembly, fuel metering parts, and the control wiring. The diagrams are line drawings with callouts – each part number tied to a figure number. No guessing which seal goes where.

Where Do You Start When Ordering Parts?

You look at the data plate on the truck. It tells you the model (R70-16 D, R70-18 D, or R70-20 CD) and the serial number. From there, you find the correct production week range. The catalog has validity columns next to each part – “up to week 13, 2003” or “from week 14, 2003.” Get that wrong and you’ll order a brake that doesn’t fit. A customer of mine once bought a used R70-18 D and needed the drive unit complete. The aftermarket site listed a part number that looked right, but the bolt holes were off by 5 mm. This catalog would have shown him the bulletin reference 2002_28 and the two different drive axle versions. That bulletin is referenced in the MECHANICAL DRIVE AXLE section under Gear Drive – REORDER 0172185.

Why Aftermarket Catalogs Can Cause Problems

Aftermarket parts lists are often reprints of old data, sometimes missing the later revision you need. I’ve seen a “universal” part number for an exhaust system that was only valid for the series spec, not the oxidation catalytic converter option. This catalog gives you all the exhaust variants: bottom series, bottom with oxidation cat, top exhaust pipe, ETB system, Eberspächer cleaner, Huss overhead guard – each with separate figure sets. If your truck has the ETB regeneration system (EWR30 and C570), that’s a sub-section of its own. You don’t guess; you match the figure to your truck. For a deeper dive into internal combustion engine fundamentals, see Internal Combustion Engine.

Exhaust System and Emissions Components

The DIESEL EXHAUST SYSTEM chapter runs nine sub-sections deep. It covers everything from the basic exhaust pipe up through the Eberspächer 12 V electrical installation with its base plate. You’ll find the RETROFIT (Joystick) option listed in the same chapter – so if someone added a joystick control later, the part numbers are captured. The catalog also includes a REGENERATION SYSTEM for the ETB filter. This is not a service manual; it won’t tell you how to rebuild the system. But it will give you the part number for the filter element and the gasket kit. That saves you the phone call to the dealer.

How This Catalog Saves You Time

Time is money when a forklift is down. Instead of pulling the old part, measuring it, and calling three suppliers, you open the catalog, find the figure, read the part number, and order. The catalog is a PDF, so you can search by part number, figure number, or description. It covers the R70-16 D, R70-18 D, and R70-20 CD as one document – 3569 pages bound together. The document also includes multiple languages (English, French, Italian, Spanish, German) in the same file, so if your shop has a multilingual crew, everyone reads the same data.

FAQ

Is this the same as a service manual?

No. This is a parts catalog – it lists every part number, not repair steps.

Does this cover the R70-20 CD model?

Yes. The catalog covers all three models: R70-16 D, R70-18 D, and R70-20 CD in one 3569-page file.

Can I use this to find parts for the pre-heater?

The catalog includes a section for the engine preheater under IC ENGINE > HEATER, COMPL. (engine preheater). You’ll find part numbers for the glow plug system, heater assembly, and wiring. If you need the pulse generator, that’s listed separately under IC ENGINE > PULSE GENERATOR. The data is organized by model and production week, so you need to check the weeks applicable to your truck’s serial number. Pay attention to the “up to week 13, 2003” and “from week 14, 2003” splits – they change the part numbers. The diagrams show the exact assemblies, including the motor variants and brake changes. I’ve used this to source a pre-heater relay for a R70-18 D that had a later motor revision – the catalog showed the superseded part number right next to the original.

How many pages is this catalog?

3569 pages.

Access the Factory Manual and keep it on your shop tablet or printed out. Next time an R70-16 D rolls in with a coolant leak, you’ll have the radiator figure and part number in under a minute. No more squinting at blurred aftermarket copies. This is the factory document – use it.
