Every one of the 350 pages in this Wacker Neuson WL32 Service Manual PDF (OEM #1000350669) is aimed at one machine: getting your WL32 wheel loader back to spec. You get full electrical wiring diagrams, hydraulic schematics with hose routing for the traveling drive and operating hydraulics, plus factory error code lists for the machine electronics. Step-by-step teardown and installation procedures run from the variable displacement pump P35 and gear pump P32 to the steering orbitrol S4, axles, brakes, steering column, and cabin. Both engine variants are in here: service the 36.3 kW or the 44.7 kW with its diesel particulate filter, alternator, and starter M001, following the same factory repair instructions the dealer uses. Your loader is down and the clock is running. Get the factory numbers, not forum guesses. Bookmarked and keyword-searchable; open it on any device, jump to the schematic, and start wrenching.

Wacker Neuson WL32 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Wacker Neuson WL32 loses power and traction under load, engine runs but no error codes shown
Check the boost hose on the Perkins engine first; a loose clamp kills torque with no codes. Then test the A4VG pump: rated starting pressure value is 50 bar, and suction vacuum must stay at 0.8 bar absolute minimum, 0.5 bar briefly during cold starts. Work through the traction troubleshooting steps starting on page 185.
Manual Section: Traveling Drive p. 185Engine cranks slowly or won't start at all in cold weather below minus 18 C
Test battery voltage under load first; the machine uses a 12 V, 95 Ah battery, specs on page 115. Verify alternator charging output at the terminals with the engine running. Below minus 18 C the engine will not start without a starting aid, so confirm the heaters draw current before condemning the starter.
Manual Section: Maintenance p. 115Coolant temperature warning light comes on during heavy work, radiator core packed with debris
Stop the engine the moment the red temperature light comes on. Blow the radiator core clean with compressed air from the fan side; a plugged core is the usual cause. Refill with equal parts water and antifreeze per page 99; the system holds 16.0 l (4.2 gal). Radiator and fan removal procedures start on page 155.
Manual Section: Cooling p. 155Red engine oil pressure warning light flickers at idle then stays on steady
Shut down and check the dipstick before anything else. If the level is low, top up; the 404F-22T takes 10.6 l (2.8 gal) with a filter change, per page 76. If the level is fine, suspect the oil pressure sensor or its wiring; trace the circuit on the wiring diagram on page 279 before tearing into the engine.
Manual Section: Maintenance p. 76Error codes E001 or E011 on display, starter clicks but engine won't crank
Look up the code on the error list starting on page 335. E001 means battery voltage is low: charge or replace the 12 V, 95 Ah battery and clean both cable ends. E011 points at the starter circuit; check the main ground strap and the battery master switch before swapping the starter.
Manual Section: Malfunctions p. 335Frequently Asked Questions
How to reset engine fault code on WL32?
Engine fault codes on the WL32 are not reset manually. For troubleshooting and to delete error codes, you need to connect the Wacker Neuson diagnostic system WANDA. The machine error memory can be read out and deleted as required using this system. p. 273
What are the replacement specifications for Fuel filter?
The fuel filter should be replaced at regular operating hour intervals. The maintenance overview indicates that the fuel filter should be replaced and the pre-filter cleaned at 250, 750, 1000, 1250, 1750, 2000, 2250, 2750, 3000 operating hours, or once a month. p. 72
What is the engine oil capacity for Perkins engine 404F-22T (44.7 kW)?
For the Perkins engine 404F-22T (44.7 kW), the engine oil capacity with the filter is 10.6 liters (2.8 gallons). The recommended engine oil is SAE 10W40, suitable for ambient temperatures from -20 °C to +40 °C (-4 °F – 104 °F), and should meet API CJ-4, ACEAE9, or ECF-3 specifications. p. 76
What is the tightening torque for the wheel nuts on the WL32?
The tightening torques for wheel nuts on the WL32 vary by screw dimension. For M14 x 1.5, the torque is 150 Nm. For M18 x 1.5, it is 285 Nm, and for M20 x 1.5, the torque is 400 Nm. p. 21
What is the maximum permissible slope for the WL32 with a lowered loader unit?
The maximum permissible slope for the WL32, when operating with a lowered loader unit, is 20 degrees. This specification is important for safe operation on inclined surfaces. p. 14
