Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the YL 519745813 brushes used for?
A: The YL 519745813 is a pair of OEM brushes for Yale electric lift truck traction motors and hydraulic pump motors. Brushes carry electrical current from the stationary commutator ring to the rotating armature shaft and are critical wear components in DC motor assemblies.
Q: How many brushes come in the YL 519745813 kit?
A: The YL 519745813 is sold as a pair, meaning you receive two brushes per kit. This is the standard quantity needed to replace a complete brush set in a motor commutator assembly.
Q: What material are the YL 519745813 brushes made from?
A: Yale OEM brushes are manufactured from carbon-graphite compound formulated for DC motor service. This material provides optimal electrical conductivity, commutation performance, and wear resistance in industrial lift truck applications.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the YL 519745813 brushes?
A: Brush life typically ranges from 1000 to 3000 operating hours depending on motor speed, load, duty cycle, and commutator condition. Worn or uneven brush surfaces reduce motor efficiency, increase commutator arcing, and indicate replacement is due. Monitor brush length during routine inspections.
Q: What Yale electric lift truck models are compatible with the YL 519745813 brushes?
A: The YL 519745813 brushes fit select Yale traction and hydraulic pump motors. Verify your lift truck model and motor assembly type before ordering. Cross-reference your equipment documentation or contact technical support with your serial number for confirmation.
Q: What is a symptom that the YL 519745813 brushes need replacement?
A: Signs of worn brushes include reduced motor power, visible sparking at the motor commutator, audible noise or grinding, uneven brush wear, or brushes worn below minimum length. Worn brushes accelerate commutator damage, so replacement should not be delayed.
