Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is GWK-HMX65-LW-XL compatible with my BT Prime Mover HMX65 electric lift truck?
A: Yes. GWK-HMX65-LW-XL is a direct OEM replacement load wheel kit manufactured for BT Prime Mover HMX65 electric pallet jacks. The extra-large 97a durometer polyurethane assemblies mount directly to existing HMX65 axles and hubs without modification.
Q: When should I choose extra-large 97a wheels instead of standard 95a wheels?
A: Select GWK-HMX65-LW-XL if your operation involves continuous material handling, frequent outdoor warehouse use, dock ramps, or rough concrete surfaces. The 97a durometer rating provides extended wheel life and reduced flat-spotting under heavy cycle. Standard 95a is sufficient for typical warehouse service.
Q: How long do GWK-HMX65-LW-XL polyurethane wheels last in demanding environments?
A: In demanding material handling environments with daily use, expect 3 to 7 years of service life. Harder 97a polyurethane resists deformation longer than softer compounds. Inspect wheels every 12 months. Replace when flat spots exceed 0.125 inches or visible chunks are missing from the wheel edge.
Q: Do I need to replace bearings and axles when installing GWK-HMX65-LW-XL?
A: Not necessarily. If existing axles and sealed bearings spin freely and show no visible damage or pitting, reuse them. If bearings are noisy, seized, or have excessive play, replace with OEM HMX65 bearing kits. Do not reuse failed bearings as they reduce wheel life and increase jack instability.
Q: Are GWK-HMX65-LW-XL wheels suitable for outdoor use on rough surfaces?
A: Yes, better than standard wheels. The 97a durometer polyurethane resists punctures and cracking on rough concrete, gravel, and dock ramps better than softer 95a material. Inspect wheels monthly if used outdoors. Severe splintering, cracks, or chunks indicate replacement is needed immediately to prevent axle damage.
Q: What tools and safety steps are required to install GWK-HMX65-LW-XL?
A: Use a lift or jack stand to raise the truck safely. Remove cotter pins and axle nuts. Pull the worn wheel assembly free. Clean the axle and hub. Slide the new GWK-HMX65-LW-XL wheel assembly onto the axle. Reinstall and tighten the axle nut. Install new cotter pins. Test steering and load handling before returning to service. Do not operate without cotter pins installed.
