Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the BF 12291 adjustment knob used for?
A: The BF 12291 is an adjustment knob for manual pallet jacks and lift trucks. It is used to adjust load wheel pressure and carriage alignment on equipment from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and similar OEMs. Turning the knob fine-tunes the load roller positioning to ensure smooth, level load handling.
Q: What is the thread specification of the BF 12291?
A: The BF 12291 features a metric threaded stem designed to match the adjustment screw boss on standard pallet jack carriages. The knob diameter provides adequate leverage for manual adjustment without excessive torque. Verify thread size matches your equipment before ordering.
Q: How do you know if the BF 12291 needs replacement?
A: Replace the BF 12291 if the knob is cracked, if the stem threads are damaged, or if the knob spins freely without gripping the adjustment screw. A worn or damaged BF 12291 prevents proper load wheel pressure adjustment and can result in uneven wear and handling problems.
Q: Which pallet jack models does the BF 12291 fit?
A: The BF 12291 is used on manual pallet jack carriage assemblies from multiple OEM manufacturers. Verify the knob thread size and stem length match your equipment model before ordering. Cross-reference your pallet jack documentation with the BF 12291 specifications for correct fitment.
