Part of the Case Repair Manuals.
The loader is parked with the bucket down and a fault code on the cluster. This is the Case service manual for the 21F, 121F, 221F and 321F Tier 4B (final) compact wheel loaders. It is part number 47829079B, 2nd edition, May 2015. It covers the 121F XT, 121F ZB, 21F XT, 21F ZB, 221F HS, 221F STD, 321F HS and 321F STD.
This book gives you the real figures for the axles, travel pump, loader valve, steering, brakes and quick coupler. It also has the harness sheets and fault codes from 2741 to 4920. The engine chapter only covers engine and fuel tank remove and install.
