Part of the New Holland Repair Manuals.
This is the factory repair manual for the New Holland FX30, FX40, FX50 and FX60 forage harvesters, complete repair part number 87342127. It works through the machine the way New Holland numbers it: engine, live PTO, transmission, four-wheel drive, front drive, hydrostatic system, brakes, hydraulics, cab climate, electrical, and then the crop path through product feeding, chopping and ejection. The engine section is the largest, running from page 47 to page 334, and it covers the IVECO F3A with its electronically controlled pump-injector fuel system.

New Holland FX30, FX40, FX50, FX60 Common Problems This Manual Covers
The engine is down on power, smokes, or runs rough.
Do not treat it like a mechanical diesel. The IVECO F3A uses electronically controlled high-pressure pump-injectors, so timing and delivery are commanded rather than set. Work the engine section, which explains how the pumping element is driven and how the solenoid controls the injection event, and check for stored faults on the electronic side before you pull an injector. The block and liner categories in the same section matter if you are going deeper.
Manual Section: SECTION 10 - ENGINEThe machine is slow on the ground or will not hold speed on a slope.
Ground drive is hydrostatic and has its own section at pages 465 to 486, separate from the transmission. It covers the pump and drive motors, the charge circuit and the ground drive control, along with the pressure test procedure. Test the charge circuit before you condemn the pump, since a low charge pressure makes the whole drive feel tired without any single component being obviously wrong.
Manual Section: SECTION 29 - HYDROSTATIC SYSTEMChop quality falls off or the machine takes more power for the same crop.
Work the chopping section before the engine. It covers the cutterhead and knives, the shearbar setting and the sharpening system, and a shearbar that has drifted or knives that never reached a proper edge cost power and quality together. Set the clearance to the manual figure, sharpen properly, then check the feed rolls and the metal and stone detection in the product feeding section.
Manual Section: SECTION 64 - CHOPPINGFrequently Asked Questions
Which harvesters does this manual cover?
The FX30, FX40, FX50 and FX60, under complete repair part number 87342127. Most procedures are common across the four, and where a machine differs the manual says so, for instance in the front mechanical drive section where the final drives are called out per model.
Which engine is fitted?
An IVECO F3A. The manual identifies the engine model code per machine, for example F3AE0684D*B001 on the FX30. It is turbocharged, with dedicated oil and coolant lines to and from the turbocharger, and it runs an electronically controlled high-pressure pump-injector fuel system rather than a conventional injection pump.
Is the engine itself covered or just its installation?
Fully covered, and it is the largest section in the book at pages 47 to 334. It walks around the engine, then covers the block and cylinder liners with their sorting categories, the turbocharger and its lines, the pump-injector fuel system and its electronic control, and the overhaul with the clearances that go with it.
Is the crop path included?
Yes, in flow order at the back of the book: product feeding from page 997, chopping from 1081 and ejection from 1091. That covers the feed rolls and their drive, metal and stone detection, the cutterhead and knives with shearbar setting and sharpening, and the blower and spout with its rotation drive.
How big is the manual and can I search it?
It is 1096 pages in English, a searchable and printable PDF. Search the text, print the pages you need for the bench, and keep the rest on a laptop in the workshop.
What do I get after purchasing this New Holland FX30, FX40, FX50, FX60 manual?
Immediate download of the complete 1096-page searchable Repair Manual (36 MB). Access it on any device, from a laptop at your desk to a phone in the field.
Are there any print restrictions on this New Holland FX30, FX40, FX50, FX60?
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.
