Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What materials is the CL 997212 brush holder made from?
A: The CL 997212 is fabricated from phenolic resin and steel. The phenolic resin provides electrical insulation and heat resistance for high current endurance in motor control circuits, while the steel frame provides structural strength and mounting integrity.
Q: Which models is the CL 997212 compatible with?
A: The CL 997212 is compatible with Clark, Hyster, and Yale electric lift truck models including GEX20, GEX25, GEX30, GEX40, GEX45, and GEX50. Always verify fitment with your equipment documentation.
Q: What are the equivalent part numbers for CL 997212?
A: CL 997212 replaces Clark 915957 and Clark 987390. It is equivalent to Hyster 1387121 and Yale 524073919. Supersedes Clark 913974. Always verify fitment with your equipment documentation.
Q: What are the signs of brush holder failure?
A: Signs of brush holder failure include arcing visible in the motor junction, loss of electrical continuity between brushes and motor leads, erratic motor performance, or cracked phenolic material. A failed holder increases current draw and can damage the motor winding.
Q: Can this part be used on Hyster or Yale equipment?
A: Hyster 1387121 and Yale 524073919 are equivalent to CL 997212 in function and dimension. However, mounting boss locations and lead routing may differ. Verify against your equipment wiring schematic before substitution.
Q: How do I know if I need to replace the brush holder?
A: Replace the brush holder if you notice symptoms such as arcing, loss of electrical continuity, erratic motor performance, or visible damage to the phenolic material. Regular inspection and maintenance can help identify wear before it affects performance.
