Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of lift truck does the SU S631 load wheel fit?
A: The SU S631 is a load wheel assembly designed for electric pallet jacks and electric hand trucks. It is installed on the front axle to provide directional steering and support. Verify your equipment model and serial range before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Q: How do I determine if the SU S631 is the correct replacement for my truck?
A: Locate the OEM part number on your existing load wheel or in your lift truck service manual. Cross-reference it with the SU S631 SKU. If you are unsure, provide your lift truck model, serial number, and photos of the current wheel assembly to your parts supplier for verification before ordering.
Q: What is the installation procedure for the SU S631?
A: Installation is straightforward: lower the truck completely, remove the cotter pin and axle bolt securing the old wheel, slide the old wheel off the axle, position the new SU S631 on the axle, install the bolt and cotter pin, and verify the wheel spins freely. Do not overtighten; the wheel should rotate without binding or play.
Q: How often should the SU S631 load wheel be inspected?
A: Inspect the SU S631 load wheel quarterly or every 500 operating hours, whichever comes first. Check for flat spots, uneven wear patterns, cracks in the tread, loose cotter pins, axle bolt tightness, and bearing play. Address any issues immediately to prevent steering problems and equipment damage.
Q: What is the typical service life of the SU S631?
A: Under normal warehouse conditions (30 to 40 hours per week on smooth floors), the SU S631 typically lasts 2 to 3 years before tread wear requires replacement. Service life varies with floor conditions, frequency of use, steering aggressiveness, and load weight. Rough or outdoor floors reduce service life significantly.
