Part of the New Holland Repair Manuals.
This is the factory repair manual for the New Holland TC35A, TC35DA, TC40A, TC40DA, TC45A and TC45DA compact tractors. It is split the way New Holland numbers the tractor, and it covers both the gear transmission and the hydrostatic transmission builds in their own sections. The engine section is the most useful part for a rebuild: it tabulates all three Shibaura engines side by side, the three-cylinder N843L and the four-cylinder N844 and N844L, with their bores, strokes, displacements and clearances. The electrical section runs from page 887 to page 1372.

New Holland TC35A-TC45DA Series Common Problems This Manual Covers
Ordering engine parts and not knowing which Shibaura you have.
Read the specification table before you order. The TC35 pair takes the three-cylinder N843L at 1622 cc, the TC40 pair the four-cylinder N844 at 1995 cc with a shorter 90 mm stroke, and the TC45 pair the four-cylinder N844L at 2216 cc with the 100 mm stroke. Bore is 84 mm across all three, which is why a piston that fits is not necessarily the right one. The engine section carries the full clearance tables for each.
Manual Section: SECTION 10 - ENGINEThe engine starts hard, smokes, or lacks power.
Run the compression test first, since the manual gives the figure and the tools for it. A healthy engine makes 427 plus or minus 50 psi at a 200 rpm cylinder speed, and the variation between cylinders matters as much as the absolute number. Check that low idle is at 1050 rpm and maximum no-load speed at 2840 rpm before you touch the injection pump, then work the cylinder head and valve train chapters.
Manual Section: SECTION 10 - ENGINEA hydrostatic tractor creeps in neutral or is slow in one direction.
Work the hydrostatic transmission section rather than the gear transmission one, because they are separate builds with separate procedures. The section covers the pump and motor, the charge circuit and the ground drive control linkage, and it gives the pressure test procedure. A neutral creep is usually linkage adjustment rather than a failed pump, and the manual walks the adjustment before the overhaul.
Manual Section: SECTION 29 - HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSIONFrequently Asked Questions
Which tractors does this manual cover?
Six: the TC35A, TC35DA, TC40A, TC40DA, TC45A and TC45DA. The chassis, transmissions, axles, hydraulics and electrics are shared, so nearly every procedure applies across all six. What differs is the engine, and the manual tabulates all three side by side.
Which engine is in my tractor?
The TC35A and TC35DA run the Shibaura N843L, a three-cylinder of 1622 cc (101.4 cu in) with an 84 x 100 mm bore and stroke. The TC40A and TC40DA run the four-cylinder N844 of 1995 cc (121.7 cu in) with an 84 x 90 mm bore and stroke. The TC45A and TC45DA run the four-cylinder N844L of 2216 cc (135.2 cu in), back to the 84 x 100 mm bore and stroke. All three share a 22.5:1 compression ratio and a 2600 rpm rated speed.
What compression should a healthy engine make?
427 plus or minus 50 psi (29.4 plus or minus 1.8 bar) measured at a 200 rpm cylinder speed, on all three engines. Low idle is 1050 rpm and maximum no-load speed 2840 rpm. Standard cylinder block bore is 84.0 mm with a 85.2 mm maximum before it must be sleeved.
Does it cover the hydrostatic transmission?
Yes, in its own section at pages 483 to 566, separate from the gear transmission section. It covers the hydrostatic pump and motor, the charge circuit, the ground drive control and linkage, and the pressure test and overhaul procedures, so both build types are properly served.
How big is the manual and can I search it?
It is 1478 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 TC35A, TC35DA, TC40A, TC40DA?
Immediate download of the complete 1478-page searchable Repair Manual (41 MB). Access it on any device, from a laptop at your desk to a phone in the field.
Am I able to print pages from this New Holland TC35A, TC35DA, TC40A, TC40DA?
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.
