Gehl Manuals & User Guides

Gehl is a historic American manufacturer of compact equipment for construction and agriculture, now a key brand under the Manitou Group. Founded in 1859 in West Bend, Wisconsin, the company initially focused on agricultural implements before transitioning into the compact earthmoving market. Today, Gehl is renowned for its robust lineup of skid steer loaders, track loaders, articulated loaders, and compact excavators designed to handle tough working conditions.

The brand emphasizes durability and operator safety, offering machines with advanced hydraulic systems and versatile attachment compatibility. As part of Manitou Americas, Gehl leverages global engineering resources to produce high-quality machinery supported by a wide network of authorized dealers for service and parts.

• Where can I find the serial number on my Gehl loader?

  The serial number placard is typically located on the front frame on the right side of the machine, or sometimes on the inner riser of the lift arm depending on the model.

• Can I use non-Gehl attachments with my skid steer?

  Gehl recommends using only approved attachments. Using non-approved attachments or unauthorized modifications may compromise safety and can void the warranty.

• Where can I buy genuine Gehl parts?

  Genuine Gehl service parts should be obtained from an authorized Gehl dealer. You will need to provide the machine model and serial number to ensure compatibility.

• What does the Gehl standard warranty cover?

  The standard warranty generally covers defects in material and workmanship for a specific period (commonly 12 months) from the warranty start date, covering parts and labor at authorized dealer locations.

• How do I obtain an operator's manual for an older Gehl machine?

  Operator's manuals are often stored in a dedicated manual box behind the seat of the machine. If lost, replacements can be ordered through your local authorized Gehl dealer.
