Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the CR 072708 OEM ignition switch fit?
A: The CR 072708 is the OEM ignition switch for Crown PE 4000 electric pallet jacks and Crown M Series Stackers. This is a four-position rotary switch with screw terminals, rated 12VDC 30A, and panel mount configuration. Do not use on other equipment models without verifying voltage and mounting compatibility.
Q: What are the alternate part numbers for the CR 072708?
A: Alternate Crown part numbers for this switch include 072708, CR072708, and regional variants 072708-ALT and CR-072708-ALT. Cross-reference numbers used by parts suppliers include CR072708-OEM and CR072708-AM, though the -AM variant uses non-OEM keys that will not work with original Crown key profiles.
Q: Can I use an aftermarket ignition switch replacement on my Crown PE 4000?
A: Aftermarket switches like CR 072708-AM offer functional equivalence for power control but use different key profiles. OEM keys will not work with aftermarket variants. If retaining the original key set is required, use the OEM CR 072708 or CR 072708-OEM. Verify electrical specifications match your truck before substituting.
Q: What is the difference between CR 072708 and CR 072708-OEM?
A: Both are OEM ignition switches for Crown PE 4000 equipment. CR 072708 is the standard OEM part number. CR 072708-OEM is a designated OEM variant used by some suppliers. Both feature identical electrical ratings (12VDC 30A nominal), key-operated configuration, and screw terminal construction. They are interchangeable.
Q: What voltage does the CR 072708 ignition switch require?
A: The CR 072708 is rated for 12VDC nominal operation. This matches the standard battery voltage in Crown PE 4000 electric pallet jacks. Do not attempt use on 24VDC systems or higher. Exceeding voltage ratings will damage the switch and create safety hazards.
Q: What is the amperage capacity of the CR 072708?
A: The CR 072708 is rated at 30A maximum continuous load. This capacity is appropriate for the control circuits in Crown PE 4000 and M Series equipment. Verify that your truck circuit does not exceed 30A draw before use.
