Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the EC PAL-P73-262002 valve spring do?
A: The EC PAL-P73-262002 is a compression spring that maintains tension on the main pump or lowering valve in Ecoa pallet jacks. It controls valve actuation pressure and ensures consistent force return between pump cycles.
Q: Which Ecoa models use the EC PAL-P73-262002 valve spring?
A: The EC PAL-P73-262002 is compatible with Ecoa pallet jacks designated as VALVE SPRING or VALVESPRING models. Confirm your equipment designation before ordering.
Q: What is the material and construction of this valve spring?
A: The EC PAL-P73-262002 is a tempered alloy steel compression spring with a precisely engineered spring rate. The material resists corrosion from hydraulic fluid exposure and fatigue from continuous pump cycling.
Q: What symptoms indicate the valve spring needs replacement?
A: Replace the spring if pumping becomes difficult, pressure does not build, descent is uncontrolled, or if visual inspection reveals cracks or permanent deformation. A weakened or broken spring compromises load safety.
Q: How do the EC PAL-P73-22006 and EC PAL-P73-262002 springs differ?
A: The EC PAL-P73-22006 is the back valve spring while the EC PAL-P73-262002 is the main valve spring. Each has different spring rates and specifications. Do not interchange these parts. Contact us to confirm which spring your model requires.
