Part of the Case Repair Manuals.
This is the complete factory repair manual for the Case 580E and 580 Super E loader backhoes. It is organized into nine major service groups and covers the machine from the diesel engine and turbocharger, through the fuel and electrical systems, the power shuttle and transaxle driveline, brakes, and the full hydraulic system with both the loader and backhoe control valves. It carries torque specifications, general and detailed engine specifications, wiring diagrams, and pressure and flowmeter test procedures. You get step-by-step removal, disassembly, and assembly with troubleshooting so you can service the machine to factory spec.

Case 580E, 580SE Common Problems This Manual Covers
Loss of drive or slipping through the power shuttle
Use the Power Train group's Power Shuttle Maintenance, Operation and Troubleshooting section. Check the power shuttle fluid level and condition (capacity is 8 U.S. quarts), verify the controls and torque converter operation, and follow the troubleshooting before removing the transaxle, since a fluid or control fault often mimics internal wear.
Manual Section: Power TrainLoader or backhoe lifts slowly or lacks power
Start with the Flowmeter Tests and Pressure Checks in the Hydraulics group to confirm pump output and system pressure, then service the hydraulic pump and the relevant control valve (JI Case or Parker Hannifin loader valve, or the backhoe control valve). Confirm pressures against spec before replacing the pump.
Manual Section: HydraulicsEngine hard to start or low on power
Work the Fuel System sections, the injection pump, and the injectors, then use the Engine Stall Tests and engine specifications. On the 580SE check the turbocharger and review the turbocharger failure analysis if boost is suspect, before opening the engine.
Manual Section: Engines / Fuel SystemSteering stiff, wandering, or unresponsive
Use the Steering System Troubleshooting section, then service the steering control valve and column, the steering cylinder, and check the steering relief valve. Confirm hydraulic supply and relief pressure before replacing the control valve, since a relief or supply fault often presents as stiff steering.
Manual Section: SteeringFrequently Asked Questions
Does this manual cover the power shuttle troubleshooting?
Yes. The Power Train group has a dedicated Power Shuttle Maintenance, Operation and Troubleshooting section, plus the power shuttle and torque converter, the power shuttle controls, and the transaxle. That lets you diagnose a loss-of-drive or slipping complaint before pulling the transaxle.
Which loader control valve does my machine have?
The Hydraulics group covers two loader control valves, one made by JI Case and one made by Parker Hannifin, each with its own service procedure, plus the backhoe control valve and the stabilizer control valve. Identify which valve is fitted before ordering seals or a rebuild kit, because the internals differ between the makes.
The loader or backhoe hydraulics are weak or slow. What does the manual give me?
Start with the Flowmeter Tests and Pressure Checks in the Hydraulics group, then work the hydraulic pump, the relevant control valve, and the cylinders. That lets you confirm pump output and system pressure against spec before replacing components, rather than swapping parts blind.
Is the turbocharger covered for the 580SE?
Yes. The Engines group covers the turbocharger and includes a turbocharger failure analysis section, along with engine removal and installation, the cylinder head and valve train, and the lubrication and cooling systems. That gives you both the diagnosis and the service side of the boosted engine.
Are wiring diagrams included?
Yes. The Electrical group has a Wiring Diagrams section along with electrical specifications and troubleshooting, the starter and solenoid, the alternator, batteries, and the instrument cluster, so you can trace a circuit back to the schematic.
How quickly can I access this Case 580E, 580SE manual after buying?
A 1359-page Repair Manual in searchable PDF format (554 MB), available the moment you complete checkout. View on computer, tablet, or phone, with no shipping wait.
Can I print this Case 580E, 580SE manual?
Yes, print as many copies as you want, and there are no restrictions. Many mechanics print the section they need and bring it to the shop floor.
