Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does the BO 60114 ball valve do in a manual pallet jack?
A: The BO 60114 is an OEM hydraulic control valve that regulates fluid flow and pressure within Boman manual pallet jack pump assemblies. It controls the direction and volume of hydraulic fluid to enable lifting and lowering operations.

Q: Which Boman pallet jack models are compatible with the BO 60114 ball valve?
A: The BO 60114 ball valve is designed for Boman manual pallet jack models that require this OEM valve. Confirm your model number matches before ordering. The alternate model designation is BO60114.

Q: What are the material specifications of the BO 60114 ball valve?
A: The BO 60114 is constructed from precision-machined hardened steel or stainless steel with synthetic hydraulic-grade elastomer seals. This combination ensures durability and reliable valve operation in standard pallet jack hydraulic systems.

Q: What symptoms indicate the BO 60114 valve is failing?
A: Signs of valve failure include hydraulic fluid leaking from the valve body, loss of lift or lower control, slow or jerky lifting action, pressure relief issues, or inability to maintain load. Replace the valve if any of these symptoms occur.

Q: Can the BO 60114 be cross-referenced with other manufacturers?
A: The BO 60114 is a Boman OEM part. Do not attempt cross-brand substitution. Using non-OEM or incompatible valves will result in poor fitment, leakage, and system malfunction.

Q: How often does the BO 60114 require replacement?
A: The BO 60114 is a durable component designed for the life of the pallet jack under normal operating conditions. Replace only when failure is evident, such as leakage or loss of valve control. Routine maintenance does not require valve replacement.
