CR 79873

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the CR 79873 control lever designed for?
A: The CR 79873 is an original equipment control lever for Crown PTH series manual pallet jacks. It actuates the hydraulic system to control lifting, lowering, and load positioning in material handling operations.

Q: What material is the CR 79873 made from?
A: CR 79873 is constructed from high-tensile carbon steel. This material provides the strength and durability required for repeated actuations in demanding material handling environments while resisting fatigue and wear.

Q: Which Crown models use the CR 79873 control lever?
A: CR 79873 is designed for Crown PTH series manual pallet jacks. Verify your pallet jack model matches the PTH specification before ordering to ensure correct fit and operation.

Q: Why is carbon steel used for the CR 79873 lever?
A: High-tensile carbon steel provides superior strength-to-weight ratio and fatigue resistance. This material can withstand thousands of actuation cycles without permanent deformation or cracking, making it ideal for the repetitive control demands of pallet jack operation.

Q: How long does a CR 79873 control lever typically last?
A: Lifespan depends on frequency of use and maintenance. Carbon steel construction provides extended service life under normal operating conditions. Inspect for wear, rust, or mechanical damage periodically. Replace if bent, cracked, or if actuation becomes stiff or unresponsive.
