Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the CR 104888 brush set contain?
A: The CR 104888 is a kit of eight graphite carbon composite brushes designed for Crown electric lift truck drive motors and hydraulic motors. Each brush measures 0.548 in × 0.997 in × 1.5 in.
Q: What Crown equipment is the CR 104888 compatible with?
A: The CR 104888 is a direct replacement for Crown motor assemblies in electric lift trucks. Verify your motor voltage rating and assembly configuration match before ordering.
Q: Can I use the CR 104888 brushes individually or only as a complete set?
A: The CR 104888 contains eight brushes. While you can use individual brushes for replacement, Crown recommends replacing the complete brush set at once to ensure balanced electrical performance and consistent motor wear patterns.
Q: What is the CR 104888 cross-reference part number?
A: The CR 104888 is also referenced as Crown part number 104888. When ordering, use either designation. Both refer to the same eight-brush graphite carbon composite kit.
Q: How long do the CR 104888 brushes typically last?
A: Brush lifespan varies based on motor duty cycle and operating hours. Under normal material handling conditions, expect 2000 to 4000 operating hours. Heavy-duty use or continuous operation shortens lifespan. Monitor brush wear during scheduled maintenance.
Q: What happens if CR 104888 brushes are not replaced when worn?
A: Worn brushes reduce motor efficiency, cause excessive arcing, generate heat, and damage the commutator. This leads to loss of power, motor failure, and costly repairs. Replace the CR 104888 set when brushes reach approximately 1/4 inch thickness.
