Kramer 418 Parts Catalog

If you’re wrenching on a Kramer 418 wheel loader, you’ve probably already figured out that guessing part numbers gets expensive fast. That’s where this factory Kramer 418 Parts Catalog comes in. 102 pages of OEM exploded diagrams and part numbers, printed by Kramer-Werke GmbH under document ET 311-67. I’ve seen guys order the wrong hydraulic seal kit three times because they used a generic cross-reference. This book stops that.

Engine and Fuel Lines: Where Parts Catalogs Earn Their Keep

The catalog opens with maintenance and sealing kits, then dives straight into the Engine section. It covers every bolt, gasket, and bracket that keeps the motor turning. After that, you get Fuel lines – the exact conduits, clamps, and fittings. If you’re chasing a leak or a clog, having the factory drawing keeps you from ordering the wrong tube. The air filter section follows, with the specific element and housing parts for the 418.

Cooling System: Why You Don’t Guess the Water Pump Part Number

The Cooling system chapter – officially “Motorkühlung” – is where a parts catalog saves you a return trip. Water pumps, radiators, hoses, and thermostats are all listed with Kramer part numbers. Aftermarket catalogs often merge two different pump designs into one listing. This factory document separates them by serial number range (starting from 311 67 0001). You order the right piece the first time.

7 Systems Covered in This Kramer 418 Parts Catalog

The table of contents lists twenty-two sections, but the core drivetrain and body get the most detail. Beyond engine, fuel, and cooling, you get: hydrostatic drive, front and rear axles, brakes, steering, exhaust, cab, hydraulic system, cab heating, bucket, and labels/tools. Each section gives you an exploded view with part numbers and quantities. No guesswork, no cross-reference headaches.

Audience Fit: Who Needs This 102-Page Document?

This is for the shop owner or technician who orders parts for a Kramer 418 wheel loader. If you’re a DIY owner maintaining your own machine, you’ll also find it useful – but understand that this is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It won’t tell you torque specs or step-by-step rebuild procedures. It will tell you exactly which gasket set seals the engine and which seal kit fits the hydrostatic drive. Pair it with the matching service manual and you’re set.

Source Validity: OEM Kramer-Werke, Not a Reprint

This PDF is a direct scan of the original German-English-French factory publication, order number 0260030490, edition 1.0 from February 2001. The copyright belongs to Kramer-Werke GmbH. No third-party aftermarket copy. Every part number traces back to the factory drawings. I’ve seen too many “universal” parts lists that leave you holding a wrong seal. This one came from the same building where the 418 was designed. That matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this parts catalog include torque specs?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. You need the service manual for torque values.

Can I use this to rebuild the engine on a Kramer 418?

You can use it to order every single part needed for a full engine rebuild – pistons, rings, bearings, gaskets, seals, oil pump, timing components. The engine section lists each piece with part numbers and quantities. But you will still need a service manual for assembly procedures, clearances, and torque sequences. The catalog does not include any instructions or specifications beyond part identification. For a rebuild, buy both documents.

How are the part numbers organized in the catalog?

Each section begins with an exploded diagram showing the assembly. Next to each numbered component is a part number, description, and quantity. The back of the book includes a part number reference list (Teilesuchliste) to cross-reference any number. It covers the wheel loader from serial number 311 67 0001 onward.

Is this the same as the manual on other parts websites?

If the other site sells a reprint of the original Kramer ET 311-67 document, then yes. But many sites sell aftermarket compilations that combine multiple models or omit sections. This is the authentic factory file, 102 pages, no missing content, no added fluff. You get exactly what Kramer shipped to dealers in 2001.
