Vibromax AV 901 2002 Parts Catalog

I’ve seen too many jobs stall because someone ordered the wrong gasket set or guessed at a part number. You pull the old part, eyeball it, call around, and still get the wrong piece. Wasted billable hours and a machine sitting dead. That’s why a factory Vibromax AV 901 2002 Parts Catalog belongs on your bench. This is the exact document the factory used to build the vibrating plate – 69 pages of exploded diagrams and OEM part numbers, not a reprint from some third‑party site that copied the numbers wrong.

What Makes This Parts Catalog Different

Aftermarket parts listings often show a generic picture and a long list of “fits” models that don’t match. This catalog comes from Vibromax themselves – issued March 2002, valid from serial number JKC 03 200 00 onward. Every part is keyed to the exact engine and chassis configuration of the AV 901. You get the German/English/French/Spanish part names and the OEM dashed numbers. If you need the cylinder head gasket, you flip to page 2‑6 and find the right part number without calling the supplier twice.

Engine Upper Section: Cylinder Head and Crankcase

The Upper Section chapter (Section 2) breaks down the whole engine top-end. Starting at page 2‑2, you get the full assembly view. Cylinder head (page 2‑6) – each bolt, plug, and gasket is drawn and numbered. Crankcase (page 2‑8) – same treatment. Flywheel (page 2‑10), crankshaft (page 2‑14), piston and connecting rod (page 2‑16) – every rotating and reciprocating piece accounted for. If you’re rebuilding a motor that threw a rod, you grab this catalog and tick off every fastener and seal before you place an order. That saves you another tear‑down because you forgot the wrist pin clip.

Who Needs This Parts Catalog?

DIY owners who run a home‑garage rental fleet: you don’t want to sit on a vibrating plate that won’t run because the air filter housing gasket is wrong. Shops that service compactors: your parts counter guys need the exact reference to pull from the warehouse. Beginners rebuilding their first plate compactor: this catalog teaches you what each part looks like in the assembly – you see the exploded layout and understand how the carburetor (page 2‑28), fuel tank (page 2‑38), and ignition coil (page 2‑40) go together. No guesswork, no wasted trips to the dealer.

3 Sections That Save You From Ordering Wrong Parts

• Steering Bow (Section 3, page 3‑2): Complete assembly with all bolts and bushings – common wear items on a plate compactor that sees daily abuse.
• Decals (Section 4, page 4‑2): Safety and operation decals with part numbers – replace missing decals before an OSHA inspection.
• Special Accessories (Section 5, page 5‑2 to 5‑6): Vulkollan plate, wheel carriage, and sprinkling system – add‑ons that often get ordered by description instead of number.

Each section has its own table of contents in the PDF, so you find what you need in seconds. The catalog also lists the official Vibromax address and certification (DIN EN ISO 9001, certificate no. 59557‑01) – that’s the kind of traceability you won’t get from a scan on a forum.

OEM Authenticity vs. Aftermarket Reprints

Aftermarket parts lists often mix up fastener grades or skip the small hardware. This Vibromax AV 901 Parts Catalog is a direct print from the factory – same numbering system used by their service centers. I’ve torqued enough heads to know that using the wrong length bolt can drop a valve. A factory parts catalog stops those errors before you order. Check out the Automotive Industry Overview for context on how OEM documentation improves repair accuracy. And if you need related diagrams, see the VIBROMAX AV 601 Parts Catalog 06025/28020 or the VIBROMAX AT 8 Parts Catalog 05408/28020 for different plate models.

FAQ

Does this parts catalog include torque specifications or assembly instructions?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It lists part numbers, quantities, and exploded views. For torque values and step‑by‑step rebuild procedures, you need the factory service manual for the AV 901.

Can I use this catalog to identify parts if my serial number is earlier than JKC 03 200 00?

The catalog explicitly states it is valid from serial number JKC 03 200 00. If your machine has an earlier serial, some parts may differ. Contact Vibromax or cross‑reference with an older edition. But for machines built after that number, every part listed is correct.

Keep your plate compactor running with factory‑correct parts. No more returns, no more “close‑enough” gaskets that leak. Access the Factory Manual – get the official Vibromax AV 901 Parts Catalog PDF and stop wasting time on aftermarket guesswork. Also refer to the Automotive Industry Overview for standards on equipment documentation.
