Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the function of the 800134822 pivot axle?
A: The 800134822 pivot axle connects the fork assembly to the vertical mast on manual pallet jacks, allowing the forks to tilt and level during load handling. It is a critical component for directional control.
Q: Which manual pallet jack models are compatible with the 800134822?
A: The 800134822 pivot axle fits standard manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, CAT, and similar OEM manufacturers. Verify your specific model and serial number for exact compatibility.
Q: What material is the 800134822 pivot axle made from?
A: The 800134822 is constructed from hardened steel for strength and resistance to bending under lateral forces. Steel composition ensures the axle maintains its geometry during repetitive tilting cycles.
Q: How can I tell if the 800134822 pivot axle is worn?
A: Signs of wear include excessive lateral play in the fork assembly, difficulty achieving level, grinding noises during tilt operation, or visible bending. These indicate the axle needs replacement.
Q: What happens if the 800134822 pivot axle fails?
A: A failed pivot axle will prevent proper fork tilt and level operation, compromising load balance and stability. The jack cannot be safely operated until the axle is replaced.
