Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What equipment does the LF SF20224X48U push rod fit?
A: The LF SF20224X48U is a push rod component designed for manual pallet jacks manufactured by Lift-Rite, specifically model CF and L30 series. Verify your equipment model and serial number match before ordering to confirm fitment.

Q: What is the function of a push rod in a manual pallet jack?
A: The push rod is a mechanical linkage that transfers hand pump pressure through the frame assembly to lift the load. It connects the pump handle mechanism to the lifting mast or scissor linkage, enabling synchronized vertical height adjustment.

Q: What are the dimensions of the LF SF20224X48U?
A: The LF SF20224X48U designation indicates a 48-unit length specification. For exact measurements, mounting hole spacing, and bore diameters, consult your Lift-Rite equipment manual or specification sheet to ensure correct fitment with your pallet jack frame.

Q: Can the LF SF20224X48U be used on other pallet jack brands?
A: No. The LF SF20224X48U is engineered specifically for Lift-Rite CF and L30 models. The push rod length, mounting interface, and pressure rating are calibrated for these Lift-Rite models and are not compatible with other manufacturers.

Q: What symptoms indicate the LF SF20224X48U push rod needs replacement?
A: Signs of push rod wear include sluggish or incomplete lift cycles, jerky vertical movement, or loss of pressure during pumping. Visible bending, cracks, or corrosion at connection points are clear indicators of component failure and immediate replacement is required.

Q: How often should the LF SF20224X48U be maintained?
A: Push rods require periodic visual inspection during routine equipment maintenance. Watch for corrosion, connection play, and smooth operation through full lift cycles. Maintenance frequency depends on usage intensity and environmental conditions (indoor, outdoor, wet, or cold storage).
