Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the VJ 55F136 adjustment screw used for?
A: The VJ 55F136 is an adjustment screw component for Valu-Jack 5500-2 manual hydraulic pallet jacks. This fastener is part of the hydraulic pump assembly and regulates pressure or valve response characteristics within the lift system.
Q: Which Valu-Jack models accept the VJ 55F136 adjustment screw?
A: The VJ 55F136 fits Valu-Jack 5500-2, 55002 Hydraulic Unit, and 5500-2 Hydraulic Unit designations. These reference numbers identify the same equipment platform. Confirm your hydraulic unit model matches before ordering.
Q: Should I replace the VJ 55F136 if my pallet jack loses pressure gradually?
A: Gradual pressure loss may indicate the adjustment screw is loose or worn, but it does not automatically require screw replacement. A loose VJ 55F136 can often be re-secured. Replace the screw only if it is cracked, stripped, or corroded beyond use.
Q: What specifications should I verify for the VJ 55F136?
A: Verify that your pallet jack model is Valu-Jack 5500-2 or an alternate designation (55002, 5500-2). Check the hydraulic unit documentation to confirm the screw diameter, thread pitch, and length match your assembly before ordering. Using an incorrectly sized screw can cause system failure.
