This is the factory illustrated parts catalog for the Ford 5610 tractor, build dates January 1981 through December 1993. It is a figure-search book: exploded-view drawings with part numbers and quantities for every assembly on the tractor, from the cylinder block and crankshaft to the hydraulic lift cover, 8-speed and synchronized transmissions, Dual Power unit, front axle, steering gear, rear axle, brakes, cab, and electrical parts. You look up the figure, match the callout to your worn part, and walk into the dealer or online listing with the exact number. Be clear on what it is not: there are no repair procedures, torque specs, or wiring diagrams here. This book is for identifying and ordering parts, and it does that job properly.

Ford 5610 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Hydraulic pump is weak or leaking and you need the pump, seals, and O-rings identified before tearing in
The Hydraulic Lift section shows the pump in exploded view with every seal, O-ring, gasket, and hardware item called out by part number and quantity, plus the lift cover, control linkage, remote valves, and load monitor, so one order covers the whole reseal.
Manual Section: Hydraulic Lift p. 512Power steering groans or drips and you cannot tell which seal kit or hose fits your setup
The Front Axle and Steering section breaks the power steering pump, steering cylinder, gear assembly, and column into numbered figures. Match your axle type to the right drawing and pull the exact cylinder seal kit and hose numbers instead of ordering by guesswork.
Manual Section: Front Axle and Steering p. 67Brakes drag or the handbrake will not hold, and the linkage has decades of wear in every pin and clevis
The Brakes section lays out the pedal and linkage assemblies, transmission handbrake, and hydraulic trailer brake components pin by pin, so you can order every worn clevis, spring, and bushing in one pass rather than discovering missing pieces mid-reassembly.
Manual Section: Brakes p. 40Engine reseal or overhaul coming up and you need gasket kits and internals matched to your block
The Engine section covers the cylinder block, crankshaft, camshaft, pistons, oil pump, and manifold with the factory gasket kit numbers listed, so you can price a full overhaul parts list up front and confirm which kit matches your build date before ordering.
Manual Section: Engine p. 281Frequently Asked Questions
Will this manual show me how to rebuild my hydraulic pump or set valve clearances?
No. This is a parts catalog, not a workshop manual. It gives you exploded views, part numbers, and quantities so you can order the right pieces, including the full hydraulic pump breakdown with seals and O-rings. For repair procedures and specs you need the separate Ford shop manual. Plenty of owners keep both: this one for ordering, the shop book for wrenching. p. 1
My 5610 loses loader hydraulics but the three-point still works. Can this book help me chase that?
It helps you order, not diagnose. Once you have narrowed it to the pump, a hose, an O-ring, or a valve, the Hydraulic Lift section breaks down the pump, lift cover, remote control valves, and load monitor piece by piece so you buy the exact seal kit or component instead of guessing. If the fault is in an aftermarket loader valve, check the loader maker's book for that part. p. 186
Does it cover my tractor's build year and options like Dual Power or a cab?
It covers 5610 tractors built 1/81 through 12/93, and the option spread is in there: 8-speed non-synchronized and synchronized transmissions, Dual Power, reduction gear box, cab interior with heat and A/C, roll bar, and standard, power-adjustable, and dual rear wheels. Where parts changed mid-run, the figures note the applicable build range, so check your serial number against the listing. p. 2
Some listings call this a New Holland manual. Is it the right book for a Ford 5610?
Yes. New Holland took over the Ford tractor line and reprinted these catalogs under their own header, so later copies carry New Holland branding on a Ford-era book. The content, figures, and part numbers are for the Ford 5610 of 1981 to 1993. Many of those numbers still cross-reference straight into the current New Holland parts system. p. 2
Are the old Ford part numbers even useful anymore?
Very. Dealers and aftermarket suppliers still index 5610 parts by the original Ford numbers, so quoting the exact number from the figure gets you the right seal, bearing, or gasket kit first try. Even when a number has been superseded, the counter can chase the chain from the original. Without the number you are describing a part over the phone, and that is how wrong parts get shipped. p. 9
