Part of the New Holland Repair Manuals.
Factory workshop manual (pub. no. 604.66.121.00, May 2003) for the New Holland FX30, FX30NA, FX40, FX40NA, FX50, FX60 and FX60NA self-propelled forage harvesters. This is the book dealer techs used: full teardown and rebuild procedures for the IVECO F3A and F3B engines, traction gearbox and differential with shim calculations, 4WD lines, hydrostatic drive, work and steering hydraulics, brakes, cab air conditioning, and the whole crop path from feed rolls through cutterhead to blower. The electrical chapters cover wiring diagrams, CAN network basics, calibration, software update and error-code troubleshooting. Note on engines: both IVECO units are fully specced and serviced here; the Caterpillar C-15 option is not - Cat engine service goes through the Caterpillar dealer network.
