Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the amperage rating for the CT A0000-05939 fuse?
A: The CT A0000-05939 is a 500-amp fuse designed for heavy-duty electric material handling equipment, including electric pallet jacks, electric hand trucks, and sit-down electric lift trucks. Verify your equipment voltage and amperage requirements before ordering to ensure correct application.
Q: What types of electric lift trucks use the CT A0000-05939 fuse?
A: This 500-amp fuse is compatible with Caterpillar electric lift trucks and other OEM equipment requiring 500-amp protection in main power circuits. Cross-reference your equipment manual or existing fuse to confirm fit. This part suits various brands including CAT, Toyota, and Raymond models with matching voltage specifications.
Q: How do I know when a 500-amp fuse needs replacement?
A: A blown fuse will stop power flow entirely to the protected circuit. If your electric lift truck loses power and does not respond to controls, check the main fuse. A fuse that blows repeatedly indicates an underlying short circuit or overload condition that requires diagnosis before installing a new fuse.
Q: Can I substitute a different amperage fuse for the CT A0000-05939?
A: No. Always use the exact amperage rating specified in your equipment manual. Using a higher-amp fuse risks equipment damage or fire hazard. Using a lower-amp fuse will cause nuisance blowing. The CT A0000-05939 is engineered specifically for 500-amp circuits.
