Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the 9N5680 oil filter fit?
A: The 9N5680 is an OEM oil filter for Caterpillar electric lift trucks and material handling equipment. It is compatible with electric drive systems and hydraulic circuits used in warehouse pallet jacks, walkie trucks, and reach trucks.
Q: How often should the 9N5680 oil filter be replaced?
A: Follow your equipment manufacturer service schedule. Typical replacement intervals range from 250 to 500 operating hours depending on operating environment and oil condition. More frequent replacement may be needed in dusty or high-temperature conditions.
Q: What does the 9N5680 filter and why is it important?
A: The 9N5680 removes contaminants, wear particles, and degraded oil from hydraulic or engine oil systems. Clean oil protects pump components, valves, and cylinders from premature wear and maintains proper system performance and equipment reliability.
Q: Can I use an aftermarket filter instead of the OEM 9N5680?
A: Use OEM specification filters to ensure proper flow rate, bypass valve setting, and media quality. Aftermarket filters may not meet Caterpillar performance requirements and could compromise system protection. The 9N5680 is designed specifically for your equipment.
