Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the CR 120278 guide and what does it do?
A: The CR 120278 is a 1st Stage Rear Guide designed for Crown Wave model electric pallet jacks. This guide component manages load alignment and lateral stability during the initial lift stage of the mast assembly.
Q: Which pallet jack models does the CR 120278 fit?
A: The CR 120278 is compatible with Crown Wave model pallet jacks. Verify the model designation on your equipment before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Q: What material is the CR 120278 guide made from?
A: Crown OEM guides are typically machined from ductile iron or cast steel for durability under repetitive lateral stress. Confirm the material specification with your equipment documentation if replacement timing is critical.
Q: How long do these guides typically last in service?
A: Guide lifespan depends on load cycles, proper mast alignment, and maintenance. Worn guides produce lateral play in the mast and increase noise during lift. Replace when lateral deflection becomes visible or when the mast does not retract smoothly.
Q: What happens if the 1st Stage Rear Guide wears out?
A: Worn or damaged guides cause mast wobble, uneven load distribution, and accelerated wear on other mast components. This can lead to load tipping risk and mast binding. Replace the guide to restore proper load stability.
