INTRODUCTION
When ordering service parts, specify the correct
part number, full description, quantity required, the
unit model number and serial number. For your
safety and continued proper operation, use only
genuine GEHL service parts.
The model and serial number for this unit are on a
tag located on a panel on the front of the cabin.
''Right'' and ''left'' are determined from a position
sitting on the seat and facing forward.

changes or improvements in the design or
construction of any part of the unit without
incurring the obligation to install such changes
on any previously delivered units.

Standard attaching hardware torque values are also
provided on the inside back cover. Metric torque
values shown in the illustrations are in Newton-
meters and can be converted to foot-pounds by
multiplying by 0.738.
Specific Reference Numbers, indicating a
complete assembly, are circled in some illustra-
tions. A small bag, pictured in some illustrations,

DECAL LOCATIONS
GENERAL INFORMATION
Decal location information is provided to assist in
the proper selection and application of new decals,
in the event the original decals become damaged or
the machine is repainted. Refer to the listing for the
illustration reference number, part number,
description and quantity of each decal provided in
the kit. Refer to the appropriate illustrations for
replacement locations.
To ensure proper selection of the correct replace-
ment decals, compare all of the various closeup
location drawings to your machine before starting
to refinish the unit. Then circle each decal shown
(applicable to your machine) while checking off its
part number in the listing. After you have verified
all the decals needed for replacement, place any
extra unnecessary decals aside for disposal.
NOTE: Refer to the SAFETY chapter of the
Operator's Manual for the specific information
provided on all of the various safety decals
furnished in the decal kit(s).
NEW DECAL APPLICATION
If there is a decal on a part that is to be replaced,
be sure that the decal is applied to the replacement
part. Surfaces MUST be free from dirt, dust, grease
and other foreign material before applying the new
decal. To apply, remove the smaller portion of the
decal backing paper and apply this part of the
exposed adhesive backing to the clean surface
while maintaining proper position and alignment.
Peel the other portion of the backing paper off
slowly while applying hand pressure to smooth out
the decal surface.
CAUTION
ALWAYS follow safety precautions on decals.
Replace the decals if they are damaged, or if
the unit is repainted. If repainting, BE SURE all
applicable decals are affixed to the machine.
The decal kit for the 803 Compact Excavator is
listed below:
