RA 1-120-105

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the specifications of the RA 1-120-105 potentiometer?
A: The RA 1-120-105 is a 13K ohms potentiometer used in speed control circuits for Raymond electric pallet trucks. The 13K ohm resistance value is critical for accurate speed regulation and proper motor control signal transmission.

Q: Which Raymond model is the RA 1-120-105 compatible with?
A: The RA 1-120-105 is compatible with Raymond model 101 electric pallet trucks. It fits the joystick control handle or operator pendant on that equipment. Do not substitute this part on different Raymond models, as potentiometer values are model-specific.

Q: What happens if I install the wrong resistance potentiometer on my Raymond 101?
A: Installing a potentiometer with incorrect resistance (not 13K ohms) will cause improper speed regulation. The truck may operate at only full speed, creep uncontrollably at low speeds, or fail to respond to joystick input. Always use the exact OEM specification.

Q: How do I confirm the RA 1-120-105 is the correct part for my equipment?
A: Verify your truck is a Raymond model 101. Check the operator manual or equipment documentation for the potentiometer specification. Measure your existing potentiometer resistance with a multimeter if needed. The RA 1-120-105 must read 13K ohms at center position.

Q: Is the RA 1-120-105 a sealed component?
A: Yes. The RA 1-120-105 is a sealed potentiometer and cannot be opened, cleaned, or repaired. If it fails due to wear, water damage, or internal contact degradation, it must be replaced with a new OEM unit. Replacement is the only repair option.
