Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What components are included in the HY 4079004 caster assembly?
A: The HY 4079004 is a complete caster assembly for Hyster electric lift trucks. A complete caster assembly includes the caster body, steering mechanism, mounting bracket, and integrated bearings. Verify the kit contents match your equipment requirements before installation.
Q: Which Hyster lift truck models use the HY 4079004 caster assembly?
A: The HY 4079004 is an OEM Hyster part designed for specific electric lift truck models. Confirm your equipment model, serial number range, and lift capacity before ordering. Hyster produced multiple caster variants, and using the incorrect assembly compromises steering precision and safety.
Q: What is the load rating for this caster assembly?
A: The load rating of the HY 4079004 caster assembly is engineered to support the rated capacity of its host Hyster lift truck. This assembly must handle the trucks full capacity plus dynamic forces from acceleration and turning. Exceeding the trucks rated load stresses the caster and causes premature failure.
Q: How often should this caster assembly be inspected?
A: Inspect the HY 4079004 caster assembly during regular equipment maintenance intervals. Look for loose mounting bolts, roughness or grinding when turning the caster wheel, or play in the steering pivot. Worn or damaged caster assemblies cause steering drift and reduce operator control.
