Takeuchi TB014 Parts Catalog – Factory Numbers, Not Guessing

I’ve pulled enough parts off a machine only to find the bolt holes don’t line up with the aftermarket substitute someone sold me. If you’ve been down that road, you know the waste – time, money, and a jobsite that’s waiting. The Takeuchi TB014 Parts Catalog is the cure. This is the same book Takeuchi dealers pull part numbers from. 437 pages of exploded views, callouts, and OEM part numbers. No third-party renumbering. No “equivalent” that doesn’t fit.

This catalog covers two engine variants of the TB014: the 3TNE68-NTB and the 3TNE68-TB1/ETB1. If you need a gasket, a piston, or the entire lower frame assembly, you’ll find the exact part number – and that number will match the part Takeuchi shipped from the factory. I’ve seen guys order a crankshaft seal from a generic chart and end up with a leak a week later. Not with this book.

Engine Breakdown: 3TNE68 Parts Identification

The engine section is split into two separate bookmark groups – NTB and TB1/ETB1 – because the fuel systems and mounting hardware differ. You get individual exploded diagrams for each variant. Need a fuel injection nozzle for the NTB? Flip to the engine section, find the callout, and order the exact Takeuchi part number. Don’t trust any aftermarket cross-reference list without verifying against the OEM diagram first. That’s how you end up with the wrong crush washer and a high-pressure fuel leak.

437 pages. That’s a lot of numbers.

7 Major Sections in the Catalog

The book is laid out with clear index sections: Undercarriage, Turntable & Control Lever, Engine & Electrical System, Hydraulic Piping & Tank, Cover & Cab, Hoe Attachment, Decal & Tool, and Hydraulic Device. Each section lists part numbers, quantities, and the serial number range where the part applies. The OCR excerpt shows the lower frame assembly on page 1-1 – you can see the frame, bolts, washers, and covers called out with dimensions like the 8 mm and 10 mm bolts. Those bolt grades matter. Using a soft hardware-store bolt where a high-strength metric bolt is spec’d? That’s a failure waiting to happen.

Takeuchi TB014 Parts Catalog – What You Get

If you’re rebuilding a TB014 or stocking a parts shelf, this catalog is the backbone. It pairs directly with the Takeuchi TB014 TB016 Workshop Manual for disassembly and assembly torque specs. Need to identify a part for a machine built between SN 11400003 and 11401973? The catalog uses the “Chan.” (change) column to tell you when a part was superseded. That stops you from ordering an obsolete bracket. Also check the Takeuchi TB014 2005 Parts Catalog if your machine falls in that year range – sometimes sub-variants exist.

Lower Frame Assembly: A Real-World Example

Take page 1-1. You’ve got frame assembly X03310-30000-1, then plates, covers, bolts, and spring washers. Each part has a quantity. If you’re replacing the undercarriage, you order those exact 1100040816 and 1100041020 bolts. Don’t guess the thread pitch. The part number is the law. I’ve seen a kid use a Grade 5 bolt where a Grade 8 was required and watched a track frame crack. Not here.

Does This Catalog Cover the Hydraulic System?

Yes – sections 4 (Hydraulic Piping & Tank) and 8 (Hydraulic Device) detail every line, fitting, pump, and valve. If you need the part number for a port seal or a hose assembly, it’s in there. But remember: a parts catalog tells you what to order, not how to install it. For torque procedures on hydraulic fittings, you want the Takeuchi TL26 Parts Catalog – 288 Page OEM Factory Manual as a sibling reference for similar structure, and always use a torque wrench. Hydraulic leaks are not “minor.”

Factory Documentation vs. Aftermarket Copies

I’ve seen aftermarket parts catalogs that copy the diagrams but renumber the parts with their own inventory codes. That’s useless when you walk into a Takeuchi dealer. This is a direct scan of the original OEM publication – Book No. BC4Z004. The numbering matches factory inventory. No translation errors, no omitted supersession notes. The Automotive Industry Overview relies on standardized part numbering; this catalog follows it. If you need reference on how OEM documentation is structured across the industry, the Automotive Industry Overview is a starting point – but your money belongs in the factory book.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this parts catalog as a service manual?

No. A parts catalog gives you part numbers and exploded views. It does not tell you torque values, removal procedures, or diagnostic steps. Pair it with the proper workshop manual.

Will this catalog work for a TB016?

This catalog is specifically for the TB014. The TB016 shares the same engine family but has different frame and attachment parts. Order the dedicated TB016 parts catalog.

How do I find the correct part number for an engine gasket set?

Go to the engine section (3TNE68-NTB or TB1/ETB1). Find the cylinder head or block diagram. Each gasket has a part number. Order that number from Takeuchi. Do not buy a generic set – the head gasket thickness varies by engine serial number range.

What if a part number is listed “N/A” in the catalog?

That means the part is not available separately – it comes only as part of a larger assembly. Check the “Remarks” column. Sometimes a letter code like “X” indicates it’s only in a kit. Call a Takeuchi dealer with the assembly part number.

If you’re serious about keeping your TB014 running without chasing wrong parts, this is the foundation. 437 pages of factory-correct numbers, from the lower frame bolts to the decal kit. Don’t rely on a parts website that guesses. Access the Factory Manual and build your order list from the same source a dealer uses.
