Load Wheel and Bracket Inspection, Lift-Rite L-50

Looking to replace load wheels on your manual pallet jack? 

Below are basic guidelines for inspecting load wheels within a load wheel bracket of a Lift-Rite L-50 manual pallet jack.

Load Roller
Load rollers should not have flat spots or large pieces of metal embedded in them. (i.e. tacks, nails, or metal shavings). Any chips in the wheel that keep it from rolling smoothly indicate the need for replacement. If the wheel has cracks, loose tread, or does not turn freely, replace both wheels!

Note: Always change the wheels in pairs to reduce uneven wear. 

New load rollers have an outside diameter of 3" (L-50), 2" (L-50 mini), and 1 3/4" (L-50 CHEP). If the diameter is worn more than 1/4" from its normal size, replacement is necessary.

Load Roller Brackets 
Inspect the brackets for cracks or wear from prolonged rubbing on the floor. Check for oblong axle holes and inspect the bushings closely. (see Bushing Inspection) If any of the above conditions exist, replace the brackets.

Pallet Jack Push Rod Removal, Lift-Rite L-50

If you've inspected your push rod and found broken or cracked welds, bends, missing roll pins or worn bushings, removal of the push rod is likely necessary. This guide will show you how to remove the push rod(s) from your pallet jack.

Removal

Turn the jack over so the undercarriage section is exposed. Remove the load roller brackets (see Load Roller Brackets). 

Loosen the nut on the push rod and then the push rod can be threaded off the eye bolt. 

The eye bolt can be removed with the push rod by using a hammer and pin punch to drive the roll pin out of the pin that fastens the eye bolt to the lifting link. 

Remove the pin and the push rod. The eye bolt can then be removed from the jack.

Note: 

The nut on the eye bolt is primarily a marker for proper adjustment. It also keeps the eye bolt or push rod from spinning out of adjustment when working on the load roller brackets or lifting link.

Pallet Jack Push Rod Inspection, Lift-Rite L-50

When inspecting the push rods on your manual pallet jack, look for broken or cracked welds, bends, missing roll pins and worn bushings. 

It is best to mark the position of the eye bolt and nut in relation to the push rod to ensure proper adjustment during installation.

Note: 

The nut on the eye bolt is primarily a marker for proper adjustment. It also keeps the eye bolt or push rod from spinning out of adjustment when working on the load roller brackets or lifting link. 

It is easiest to adjust the push rod correctly if both push rod and bracket assemblies are in a fully lowered position before installing the pivot axle.

To ensure push rods are adjusted correctly, pump the jack up, then place the jack into release. If both forks bottom-out at the same time, the push rods are adjusted correctly. If one fork hits bottom before the other, it needs to be adjusted. You can either lengthen the push rod that hit first or shorten the push rod that hit second. Loosen the nut on the eye bolt and turn either way to achieve the correct length.

Coming up next, how to remove push rod from your pallet jack...

Pallet Jack Push Rod Installation, Lift-Rite L-50

Now that you've removed the push rod, you're probably wondering how to properly re-install it onto your pallet jack. 

There are installation guidelines below for Lift-Rite models L-50 & L-50 CHEP. Technical advice is free for all our customers.

Installation

With the jack still turned on its side, fasten the eye bolt to the lifting link with pin and secure the pin with roll pins. 

Thread the nut onto the eye bolt with enough room to thread onto the push rod. Thread the push rod onto the eye bolt until it approximately matches the other push rod. 

Assemble the load roller brackets and the load roller onto the push rod. Line up the pivot axle hole on the brackets to the axle hole on the frame. 

Slide the pivot axle through the frame, brackets and exit roller (if there's one). Secure the pivot axle to the frame with roll pin. Tighten the nut on the eye bolt against the push rod.

All About Pallet Jack Bushings

Bushings are designed to wear out sooner than the mating parts. They are expendable and are made of softer material. 

Pallet jack professionals recommend that you replace the bushings anytime the jack is torn down to a point where the bushings are accessible.

This will ensure longer life of the jack and will reduce the amount of downtime. Bushings are cost effective enough to change regularly.

Notes:

Replace all bushings that are cracked, broken, egg shaped or worn more than 1/16" from the original size.

Tips for easier maintenance:

Coat axles and bushings with anti-seize compound prior to installation makes maintenance easier.

Pallet Jack Hydraulic Unit Inspection Tips

Inspect the outside of the pallet jack hydraulic pump for oil leaks. Test the hydraulic unit under a load to determine if there is a problem. 

This can be done by lifting a heavy pallet and letting it stand for 15-20 minutes.

Trouble shooting tips for possible problems with your hydraulic unit:

Jack fails to lift load:

1. Air lock inside pump - place the control lever into release position, then pump the handle rapidly about 10-15 times.
2. Low fluid level - with the jack lowered, remove filler plug. Fill the reservoir until the oil is level with the fill plug hole. Bleed the unit. Replace the filler plug, creating a snug fit. Do not over-tighten.

Jack fails to lower:

1. Look for any bent frame parts (lifting link, push rod, etc.) Bent frame parts need to be replaced.
2. The handle control may be out of adjustment.

Jack lifts in short increments:

1. Lack of oil pressure - check fluid level.
2. Reservoir filler plug leaking - replace the washer and filler plug and replenish oil as necessary.

One fork lifts, the other does not:

Check for damage in the following areas and their attached parts:

1. Lifting link (lifting link pin and traverse shoulder pin)
2. Pushrod
3. Load roller bracket (pivot axle)

Note: 
Always use SP UNI-HO hydraulic oil. Do not use automotive oil or hydraulic brake fluid.

Traverse Inspection Lift-Rite L-50 and L-50 CHEP (4 way)

If you own or use a Lift-Rite L-50 manual pallet jack, we recommend a traverse inspection before each use. Often, wear can occur on the bearing shoulder (the point where the shoulder bolt attaches to the lifting link) and cause egg-shaped or oblong damage to the traverse requiring replacement.

Removal
Turn the jack onto its side and remove the steer wheel assembly (see Steer Wheels and Axle). Remove the snap ring under the traverse and turn the jack upright. Be careful lowering the stem of the hydraulic unit onto the ground. Pump the jack up to gain access to and remove the bolt that fastens the lift ram to the frame. Pull the hydraulic unit away from the frame and out of the traverse. Remove the shoulder bolts and the traverse.(15-25 mins.)

Installation
Attach the traverse to the lifting link with its shoulder bolts. Slide the hydraulic unit into the traverse, with the washers and lower thrust bearing already in position on the stem of the hydraulic unit. Position the lift ram and ball under the A-Frame. Tighten the bolt onto the ram to hold the ram in place. Turn the jack onto its side, and install the snap ring onto the stem of the hydraulic unit to hold the traverse in place. Install the steer wheel assembly (see Steer Wheels and Axle). (15-25 mins.)

Steer Wheels and Axle Inspection Lift-Rite L-50

For your Big/Joe Lift-Rite L-50 manual pallet jack we recommend inspecting the steer wheel and axle before each use. Steer wheels should be free of flat spots and large pieces of embedded material.

Indicators for when steer wheel replacement is necessary:

• Chips in the wheel
• Not turning freely
• Rubs traverse
• Worn more than 1/4"

Note:

If the steer wheel rubs the bottom of the traverse, check for the correct installation of the snap ring underneath the traverse. Replace if it is worn more than 1/4" from the normal outside diameter.

Removal

Steer wheels - Turn the jack on its side and remove the hubcap. Remove the snap ring for the newer style or the roll pin for the older style that fastens the steer wheels to the axle. 

(10 mins.)

Steer wheel axle - Turn the jack on its side and remove the steer wheel. Drive out the roll pin that fastens the axle to the stem of the hydraulic unit and slide the axle out. (15 mins.)

Installation

Steer wheel axle - Slide the axle into the stem of the hydraulic unit and fasten with roll pin. Install the steer wheels. (10 mins.)

Steer wheels - Slide the wheels onto the axle and secure with fasteners (snap rings for the newer style or roll pins for the older style). (10 mins.)

Seal kits for repairing your hydraulic unit

Looking to rebuild the hydraulic unit on your manual pallet jack?

Below are outlined the differences between a super seal kit, standard and slim seal kit. 

Super seal kits contain all parts that are included in a standard seal kit, as well as the most commonly needed parts beyond the standard seal kit to do a complete hydraulic unit rebuild.

Standard seal kits have all of the parts included in the manufacturers' standard seal kit.

Slim seal kits include only the most essential and commonly replaced seals. A cost saving option if you know what you need. A Standard or Super seal kit is a better choice if a complete hydraulic unit rebuild is necessary.

Rebuild hydraulic unit program also available. Email or call us today (800)331-0839!
