VTN Europe FP40 Parts Catalog

You are trying to match a part on a VTN Europe FP40 rotary concrete crusher, and the aftermarket catalog shows a number that doesn’t line up with what’s on the machine. That eats time. The factory VTN Europe FP40 Parts Catalog is 21 pages of OEM listings – no guesswork. I keep a copy on my bench whenever I rebuild these crushers.

Technical Specifications: Page 2 Data

The manual opens with the exact weight and dimensions. FP40 weighs 4220 kg and fits excavators between 38 and 50 tons. Those numbers matter when you are ordering replacement pins or hydraulic cylinders. Page 2 lists A, B, C measurements in mm – 3065, 1642, 800×720. If you are swapping a jaw set, you confirm those dimensions against the machine before you buy anything.

Does This Manual Cover Spare Parts for the FP40?

Yes. Everything in this Parts Catalog is keyed to the FP40 model. It is not a generic cross-reference. You get the OEM part numbers for the crushing jaws, hydraulic rams, seals, and mounting brackets. The exploded diagrams show how each component fits. No hunting through third-party databases.

Handling and Transport: Safety from Page 4

Page 4 warns that the fitting weighs over 4000 kg and requires rated lifting hooks and cables. If you are pulling this crusher off an excavator without the factory specs, you risk dropping it. The manual tells you exactly where the lifting holes are and what load rating the hooks must have. I have seen a technician skip this step and bend a mounting ear. Don’t.

3 Critical Installation Warnings

First: inspect the fitting for transport damage before you bolt it on. Second: the hydraulic system on the excavator must be closed when the solenoid valve is not excited – page 4 states that in bold. Third: operating temperature range is -16°C to 45°C. Exceed that and you void your warranty and risk seal failure. These are not suggestions.

Hydraulic System Precautions You Cannot Skip

The manual says the excavator’s hydraulic circuit must be closed when the solenoid is off. That prevents accidental movement during installation. Aftermarket guides leave this out. With the OEM Parts Catalog, you also see the routing of hydraulic lines in the spare parts diagrams. Page 5 continues with more cautions. Read them.

If you are a shop owner or a DIY operator working on heavy attachments, this Parts Catalog stops you from ordering wrong parts. I have seen too many jobs get delayed because someone gambled on an aftermarket part that didn’t match the OEM spec. The 21 pages cover everything from the main frame to the smallest bolt.

For reference, the construction equipment industry – see the Automotive Industry Overview – relies on exact OEM specs. This catalog is the source.

What excavator weight range does the FP40 fit?

According to page 2, the FP40 is rated for excavators between 38 and 50 tons.

Does this parts catalog include torque specifications for bolts?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a repair manual. It lists part numbers and exploded diagrams. For assembly torque values, you need the service manual.

How many pages is the VTN Europe FP40 Parts Catalog?

21 pages. That includes technical data sheets, part lists, and exploded views. It covers the crusher model FP40 from VTN Europe.

Why should I buy a factory parts catalog over a generic aftermarket list?

Aftermarket part numbers often change or don’t cross-reference correctly. The OEM catalog from VTN Europe gives you the exact part numbers used at the factory. If you need a replacement hydraulic hose seal, you get the right one the first time. I have seen too many jobs delayed because someone ordered the wrong part from a third-party supplier. This catalog eliminates that. It also includes handling and installation warnings that aftermarket sources omit. For the price of a few cups of coffee, you save hours of downtime.

Access the Factory Manual and keep it with the machine. It pays for itself on the first part order.
