Dynapac CA-15A 1987 Parts Catalog
You’re staring at a pile of parts from three different suppliers and none of them fit. That’s what happens when you order from generic aftermarket listings. The Dynapac CA-15A vibratory compactor has specific part numbers that change by serial number range. This is the Dynapac CA-15A 1987 Parts Catalog – the original factory reprint from July 1987. It covers machines from S/N 1651 and up. It tells you exactly what bolts, seals, hoses, and assemblies go where. No guesswork.

Air Cleaner & Engine System Coverage
Inside this manual, the air cleaner assembly for Detroit is on page 13. The Engine & Pump Assembly for John Deere and Detroit are covered in separate sections – each with its own exploded view and parts list. You get callouts and index numbers that tie directly to the part descriptions. If you need the charge pump, governor, or any engine-related component for either powerplant, it’s here. No need to cross-reference a separate manual or chase down vendor catalogs.
What Hydraulic Systems Are Covered?
The manual breaks down three separate hydraulic systems: Steering, Traction, and Vibration. The Hydraulic Brake System for later machines is included as well. Each system section includes a hydraulic diagram, complete parts list, and exploded views for every valve, hose, fitting, and motor. The Vibration Valve Pilot Circuit is on page 58. The Axle & Motor Assembly and Drum Assembly are cross-referenced in those sections, letting you trace the entire driveline from pump to wheel.
Over 170 Pages of Factory-Coded Parts
This catalog runs 170 pages thick. Each page is a factory print, not a photocopy or third-party scan. The Table of Contents lists every major assembly in order. The Numerical Index organizes every part number alphabetically and numerically across multiple pages. Need a seal or a nut? Look up the part number in the index and find every page where it appears. The manual uses standard abbreviations – HH for heat treated, NS5 for not sold separately. You get exact part numbers, quantities, and proper descriptions. That’s what a $40,000 compactor deserves.
Get the Right Valve Part Numbers
Valves are where mistakes cost you time and money. The Control Valve, Vibration section shows every spool, spring, and plug. The Manifold Valve Assembly includes the mounting hardware. The Quikstop Valve is safety-critical – don’t guess. The Steering Valve Assembly is also listed. Each valve assembly has an exploded view with a corresponding parts list. The Automotive Industry Overview background is irrelevant when you have the factory drawing in front of you. Order exactly what’s listed and bolt it on.
Electrical Assembly: Detroit Engine Wiring & Parts
For the electrical side, the Electrical Assembly section for Detroit runs ten pages. It covers the starting motor, alternator, sensors, and wiring harness. If you’ve got a no-start condition, the parts list gives you the part numbers for the switch, solenoid, and relay. It also covers the front and rear lights and the full decal kit with warning decal part numbers. When you need to restore a machine to factory condition, these details matter.

- Does this manual include repair procedures?
- No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It lists part numbers and exploded views only.
- How do I find a specific part number if I only have the old part in hand?
- Start by identifying the assembly from the Table of Contents. For example, if you have a hydraulic hose from the vibration system, go to Hydraulic Systems – Vibration. Find the hose in the exploded view, note the index number, then read the part number from the parts list. If you already have a part number, use the Numerical Index to locate every page where that part appears. That way you can verify the correct application and quantity. If the part is part of a larger assembly, check the indentations in the description column – indented parts are subcomponents. Order the assembly part number if the subcomponent is not sold separately (marked NS5). This method works for every section in the manual.
