Yale 1700, 1900 Parts Catalog – Factory Parts Manual for Loaders

If you’ve ever tried ordering a part for a loader using an aftermarket parts list, you know the headache. Wrong numbers, missing illustrations, and the machine sits while you chase down the right bracket. This Yale 1700, 1900 Parts Catalog is the OEM document from Yale – the same one the dealer uses. 219 pages of exploded diagrams, part numbers, and ordering instructions that eliminate guesswork.

I’ve been wrenching for 28 years. When I need a part number for a 1700 or 1900 loader, I reach for this catalog. It covers both models, with separate sections for GM and PO engine variants. The index alone saves hours – look up “Accelerator Pedal Linkage (GM)” and it sends you to page 38. No flipping through generic cross-references.

Floor Plates & Seat Support – What This Manual Actually Covers

The TOC lists over 130 individual assemblies. Everything from the floor plates and seat support (page 46 for Belly Pans & Guards) to the bucket cylinder hydraulic system. Each section shows an exploded view with a parts list. You get the part name, number, and quantity. If a part is not serviced separately (N.S.S.) or used as required (A.R.), the catalog notes it. This is the level of detail you need when a lift cylinder seal goes and you don’t want to buy the whole cylinder.

For the 1900 model, front axle assembly starts on page 116; rear axle on page 117. The 1700 model has its own separate axle sections on pages 151 and 152. That means you order the right differential groups – not a “universal” part that doesn’t fit.

Accelerator Pedal Linkage – GM vs PO: Two Separate Sections

Many aftermarket catalogs lump all engine variants together. This one doesn’t. Section “Accelerator Pedal Linkage (GM)” appears on pages 38-39. “Accelerator Pedal Linkage (PO)” is on page 37. The linkage parts – rods, clevises, springs – are different between the GM and Perkins (PO) engines. The catalog shows exactly which bracket and hardware you need. If you’re rebuilding a 1700 with a GM engine, you don’t waste money on PO parts.

Transmission Controls and Clutch Cut-Out – Factory Schematic

The transmission control valve assembly (pages 68-69) includes a note about serial number breaks. The clutch cut-out system (page 144) also has a note – you need to check the serial number before ordering the valve. Missing that detail can cost you a week of downtime. The catalog explains the abbreviations like N.I. (Not Illustrated) so you know when a part exists on the machine but isn’t shown in the diagram.

Hydraulic piping for the 3-spool accessory valve is covered on pages 60-61. The automatic hoist cut-out (pages 52-54) ties into the brake controls and electrical system. Everything is cross-referenced to the same page range. No flipping back and forth between different manuals.

Axle Assemblies – Front and Rear for Model 1700 and 1900

Differential groups for the 1700 front axle span pages 122-125. For the 1900, pages 136-139. The brake group for each axle is listed separately: page V.23 for the 1700 (yes, that’s a roman numeral page) and pages 94-95 for the 1900. You don’t guess which brake shoe or seal belongs to which model – the catalog gives you the exact part number.

Use this catalog when you tear down an axle for a bearing overhaul. The exploded view shows every shim, washer, and snap ring. Ordering the correct inner bearing for a 1900 rear axle takes ten seconds if you have this open on your bench.

Why You Want the Factory Parts Catalog Over Aftermarket

I’ve seen aftermarket parts catalogs copy the drawings but change part numbers to avoid copyright. That gets you a bracket that looks right but doesn’t use the same bolt pattern. This is the original Eaton Construction Equipment Division manual – Manual No. TB087, Part No. 2022989. It includes the introduction that explains how to order using machine serial number, model number, part number, name, and quantity. That introduction alone saves return shipping costs.

The catalog also lists serial number breaks – “Serial No.17-1816 & Higher” for the 1700 and “19-2013 & Higher” for the 1900. Parts changed over production years. If you order without checking serial number, you might get the wrong part. This manual forces you to verify before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this manual cover the engine internal parts?

No. This is a parts catalog for the loader – it covers engine mounting, cooling, exhaust, and controls, but not internal engine components like pistons or crankshafts. For engine internals, you need the engine manufacturer’s manual.

Can I use this manual for a Model 1700 only?

Yes. Both models are included, but each section clearly marks which model it applies to. For example, the front axle assembly is listed separately for Model 1700 (page 151) and Model 1900 (page 116).

Are torque specs or adjustment specs included?

No. This is a parts catalog – it gives part numbers, names, and quantities. It does not contain torque values or adjustment specifications. You need the service manual for that.

How do I order the correct part using this catalog?

First, find the assembly section (e.g., Brake Controls & Lines on pages 52-54). Identify the part number from the list, then provide that part number along with your machine model and serial number when ordering. The manual introduction on page 3 explains the required information. Follow it, and you get the right part without returns.
