Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the JT PT2748A-076 lifting link and what does it do?
A: The JT PT2748A-076 is a 27 inch wide lifting link component that forms part of the mechanical linkage system in manual pallet jacks. This link connects the hydraulic lift cylinder to the load-carrying forks or platform, converting vertical hydraulic pressure into upward fork movement.
Q: What are the dimensions and specifications for the JT PT2748A-076?
A: The JT PT2748A-076 lifting link is 27 inches wide and manufactured from steel construction to handle repeated lift cycles and the stress of supporting loaded pallets. The link geometry is engineered for the specific lift mechanics of Jet pallet jacks to ensure proper fork angle and load distribution.
Q: Which equipment does the JT PT2748A-076 lifting link fit?
A: The JT PT2748A-076 lifting link is designed for Jet brand manual pallet jacks with a 27 inch platform width. Verify your equipment manufacturer and platform width match before ordering. This part is not compatible with pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Hyster, or other manufacturers.
Q: What failure symptoms indicate the JT PT2748A-076 lifting link needs replacement?
A: A damaged lifting link produces these warning signs: forks do not raise evenly, jack rises at an angle instead of vertically, visible cracks or bending in the link, grinding or clicking noises during lift cycles, or inability to reach full lift height. Cracks or permanent deformation require immediate part replacement to restore safe operation.
Q: How do I confirm the JT PT2748A-076 is the correct part for my pallet jack?
A: Check your equipment nameplate to confirm it is a Jet brand pallet jack. Measure the platform width, which should be 27 inches. The lifting link is part of the main lift mechanism between the pump and fork carriage. If your jack is 27 inches wide and manufactured by Jet, this is the correct replacement link.
