Load Wheel Assembly
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the load wheel assembly include?
A: The load wheel assembly is a complete pre-assembled unit consisting of the wheel, bearing hardware, axle hardware, and other mounting components ready for installation. This differs from the wheel-only option (BA 985604), which is the wheel component alone.
Q: Which electric lift trucks are compatible with this assembly?
A: This assembly fits Baker electric lift trucks and pallet jacks that use this wheel configuration. Verify your equipment model designation and wheel mounting specifications match before ordering.
Q: What is the difference between the wheel-only and the assembly version?
A: The wheel-only version contains just the wheel itself. The assembly version includes the complete wheel plus necessary bearing, axle, and mounting hardware pre-assembled. Order the wheel-only if replacing only the wheel; order the assembly for complete pre-assembled replacement.
Q: When should I replace this load wheel assembly?
A: Replace the assembly if wheels are flat-spotted, cracked, unevenly worn, if the equipment pulls to one side, if wheels do not spin freely, or if you hear grinding noises indicating bearing damage.
Q: Are bearing components included?
A: The assembly includes the wheel and mounting hardware as a complete unit. Bearing type and configuration follow Baker specifications for your equipment model. Consult your equipment documentation for complete assembly specifications.
Q: What maintenance is recommended?
A: Inspect wheels regularly for wear, cracks, and flat-spotting. Keep wheels clean and free of debris. Spin wheels by hand to verify free rotation. Replace when wear becomes visible or wheels no longer rotate smoothly.
