Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 5800835-54 gas spring used for on Yale electric lift trucks?
A: The 5800835-54 is an OEM gas spring designed for the tiller arm on Yale electric lift trucks. It provides counterbalance force to reduce operator effort when steering and maneuvering the vehicle. It is compatible with Yale W50Z and MPB/MPW series models.
Q: What are the key specifications of the 5800835-54 gas spring?
A: The 5800835-54 features a 16.625 inch extended length with 3.5 inch stroke capacity. It provides 20 pounds of lifting force, is nitrogen charged for smooth operation, and uses a steel cylinder with hard chrome rod for corrosion resistance and durability.
Q: Which Yale lift truck models does the 5800835-54 fit?
A: The 5800835-54 is a direct fit for Yale W50Z, MPB040EB827, MPB045EB827, MPW045EB802 (serial range B802n02097b and after), and MPW050EC802 (serial range C802n02830f and up). Cross-reference your truck serial number before ordering.
Q: What parts does the 5800835-54 replace or supersede?
A: The 5800835-54 replaces Yale part 5800468-12 and supersedes obsolete designation 580083554. It is also equivalent to ML029 cross-reference. If your truck originally used these part numbers, the 5800835-54 is the current OEM replacement.
Q: How long do gas springs typically last on a Yale lift truck tiller arm?
A: Gas springs typically last 3-5 years depending on duty cycle and environmental conditions. Replace if tiller arm feels heavy, loses counterbalance force, or shows visible damage to the rod or cylinder. Worn springs increase operator fatigue and steering effort.
Q: Is the nitrogen charge in the 5800835-54 replaceable?
A: Gas spring nitrogen charge cannot be replenished. If the spring loses pressure and counterbalance force, the entire spring assembly must be replaced. Do not attempt to puncture or recharge the spring yourself.
