HANDLE YOKE AXLE
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 781023 handle yoke axle?
A: The 781023 is a pivot shaft that connects the handle yoke to the manual pallet jack frame. It allows the handle to move vertically during pump operation while maintaining rigid structural alignment. This component is critical for proper handle articulation and pump engagement.
Q: Which manual pallet jacks use the 781023 handle yoke axle?
A: The 781023 is compatible with standard handle assemblies on manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and comparable OEM manufacturers. Confirm your equipment model to ensure correct fitment before ordering.
Q: What symptoms indicate the 781023 handle yoke axle is failing?
A: A failing 781023 causes handle movement that feels loose or excessively play in the pivot, noises during pump cycles, misalignment of the handle, or reduced pump engagement efficiency. These symptoms indicate axle wear or bending that compromises hydraulic performance.
Q: What material is the 781023 handle yoke axle made from?
A: The 781023 is manufactured from hardened steel designed for high-load pivot applications. This material provides the strength and rigidity needed to withstand repeated pump handle cycles and maintain structural alignment throughout the life of the pallet jack.
Q: How long does the 781023 handle yoke axle typically last?
A: Under normal warehouse usage, the 781023 lasts 7 to 12 years depending on frequency of lift cycles and maintenance practices. High-volume operations may see shorter service life. Regular inspection for signs of wear or bending can extend component reliability.
