Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the VJ 66208-36?
A: The VJ 66208-36 is a 36 inch long push rod for the hydraulic lift mechanism in Valu-Jack manual pallet jacks. The extended length accommodates longer fork assemblies and allows for greater lift travel distance.
Q: Why does the VJ 66208-36 have a 36 inch length?
A: The 36 inch length is specified for Valu-Jack configurations with extended fork designs or equipment requiring longer hydraulic stroke for full lift travel. This length determines the maximum lifting height and fork extension capability.
Q: Is the VJ 66208-36 a direct replacement for the standard VJ 66208?
A: No. The VJ 66208-36 is NOT interchangeable with the standard VJ 66208. Always verify your equipment fork length and lift mechanism specifications. Using the wrong length push rod will cause improper lift operation and potential hydraulic failure.
Q: What is the consequence of ordering the wrong push rod length?
A: An incorrectly sized push rod will cause the lift mechanism to either not reach full height, bind during operation, or fail to lower completely. This creates safety hazards and equipment damage. Always confirm your exact push rod length requirement before ordering.
Q: How can I confirm if I need the VJ 66208-36?
A: Check your Valu-Jack model number and serial range against the equipment specifications. Measure your current fork length and hydraulic lift travel distance. The VJ 66208-36 is required only for specific longer-fork configurations. Contact technical support with your equipment details if unsure.
