Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the DA B22-97 lube fitting?
A: The DA B22-97 is a grease fitting (also called a nipple or lube point) used on Dayton model 4YX97 pallet jacks. It provides a connection point for applying lubrication to internal pivot points, bearings, and moving components.
Q: Which pallet jacks use the DA B22-97 lube fitting?
A: The DA B22-97 is a factory component for Dayton model 4YX97 pallet jacks. Confirm your equipment matches this model before ordering replacement fittings.
Q: How often should I service the DA B22-97 lube fitting?
A: Lubricate through the DA B22-97 fitting every 40 to 80 hours of operation or monthly, whichever comes first. High-use equipment may require more frequent lubrication. Always wipe away excess grease after application.
Q: What type of lubricant works with the DA B22-97?
A: Use a standard multipurpose lithium-based grease (NLGI Grade 2) for the DA B22-97. Do not use oils or thin lubricants, as these drain away from moving parts and leave components under-lubricated.
Q: When should the DA B22-97 lube fitting be replaced?
A: Replace the DA B22-97 if the fitting becomes stripped, cracked, or cannot hold grease pressure. A damaged fitting prevents proper lubrication and leads to accelerated wear on internal components.
