Ransomes 4000 series manuals found

Hi, rebuilding my neighbors lawn mower and had a hard time finding all the manuals to do it. So I thought I would save other people the time if they need manuals (they are in pdf form) for Ransomes 4000. I also have been getting parts drawings and vendor names for who supplied the parts to Ransomes when they were made. This has been for the parts that are no longer available by the Bobcat or Ransomes part number. Funny thing I've found is that a lot of these parts are still made by the vendor and sold to other mower manufactures. Anyway let me know if you want me to send the manuals to you if I can't get them to attach here. Looks like the service manual is too big , it's in two parts that are over 10 MB each.

I also have the engine service manual and parts manual in paper back for the GL3E Mitsubishi motor that I just received from Japan, luckily in English.

Your welcome. I also have some sunstrand 15 series pump pdfs that helped me and also a name of a place for parts and knowledge on those pumps.
 
Figured out how to split a pdf file, so here is part 2 divided into 2 more documents. Also have added a couple of parts drawings that I had to get from the factory so I could build myself or find.

Well, I'm going to keep adding things to this thread until someone says stop... The Ransomes has play in the steering. So I started my research to see if there were any repairable parts in the steering valve. There is! The steering gear is still manufactured and serviceable parts are available. The steering gear, PN # 148132 (drawing attached) is a Parker gear HGF 16014-A1-1600. It falls in the Parker HGF series line with an extra port for a pressure pass through for the deck lift. Anyway, after finding all that out and getting the manual I believe my problem is going to be air in the steering cylinder all the way in the back after talking to the Parker support rep. Either way, here is the manual for someone out there.

I forgot that I hadn't posted the hydro manual that I used to fix the Sundstrand pump on this mower. The manual is listed as a Sauer Danfoss, I think through buy outs or merging is why the name changed. Anyway the hydro pump tag for mine was a 15-2174 CW, A-90-13-250020. It was a very easy pump to rebuild. I had the known issue with the charge pump pin broke and an oring that was blown out. Got the oring set and pin from Nova Hydraulics. The part number for the Sauer Danfoss (Sundstrand) overhaul seal kit was 9510354-001.

I found this also, the snow blower attachment sales brochure from Hanson-General Products with model numbers of the different Ransomes Bobcat machines to include 4000, 6000, 6100, 6150, and T28 that it fits. Now if I can just find one to purchase...

I have spent a lot of time looking for manuals / information about the Jaguar 4000. Some years back I mistakenly changed out the electric clutch , with one not quite right, It worked well about a year then gave me a problem: ruining the hydro seal behind it.
I had misplaced the clutch that I had taken off. I replaced the seal, ran awhile, replaced again, etc., etc.

Could someone five me a part number for the clutch that is factory? I believe it is an Ogura clutch. Maybe not. Please help.

By the way THANKS for the PDF downloads of manuals.........................
