and high speed controls for  
improved productivity.  
Anti-tie down is a standard feature  
designed to encourage proper  
operation of the truck by deterring  
the taping or tying down of the  
high speed control button. A lift  
limit switch operates at full lift  
height to shut pump motor off at  
full fork elevation. Color-coded  
wiring is used for ease of service.  
One touch high speed allows op-  
erators to activate the high speed  
button once and not have to hold  
the button down to travel in high  
speed. High speed is deactivated  
when the twist grip returns to neu-  
tral or when the brake is applied.

the truck to coast as the operator  
walks down the aisle performing  
low-level order picking. The Quick  
Coast switch is conveniently  
placed on the grab bar for easy  
activation. The Quick Coast  
option includes infinitely variable  
handle positioning within the  
coast range, and the audible and  
visual feedback features remind  
operators the Quick Coast option  
is activated. The Quick Coast  
option meets current ANSI/ASME  
requirements.  
Hydraulics  
Heavy duty pump, motor, reser-  
voir and control are assembled  
into one unit. A centrally located  
lift cylinder, mounted vertically,is  
equipped with long life polyure-  
thane packings. A pressure com-  
pensating flow control valve is an  
integral part of the valve block  
and regulates lowering speed.  
Overload valve protects hydraulic  
components.

25. Rubber skirt extension  
 
Technical Information  
PE 4000 Series  
Fork Assembly  
Fork adjustment is done at the  
toe with no need to remove a  
cover plate. Fork heel height  
adjustment is done quickly with-  
out removing battery. Quick and  
easy fork adjustment promotes  
servicing of fork assembly to keep  
pallet entry/exit productive.  
Drive Unit  
pallet. On models with a single  
load wheel, the “C” dimension  
should be 6" maximum and the  
“D” dimension should be 14" mini-  
mum. On models with tandem  
load wheels, the “C” dimension  
should be 6" maximum and the  
“D” dimension should be 17"  
minimum. Customers that need  
tandem load wheel trucks, but  
use pallets with smaller openings,  
may be accommodated if the  
maximum lift height of the truck is  
reduced. Contact your Crown  
dealer for details  
Fork width - 9.12" on standard-tip  
fork models, 10" on extended-tip  
fork models. Fork spread - 22"  
and 27" standard on standard-tip  
models. 23"- 26" spread available  
in one inch increments. 23" and  
28" standard on models with  
extended-tip models. Fork spreads  
from 24"- 27" available in one-  
inch increments. Fork lengths -  
36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 96" with stan-  
dard tip; 84, 93, and 96" forks  
available with extended tip design  
for shorter wheelbase.  
All gear drive from drive motor to  
drive wheel axle. Drive tire axle is  
mounted in the drive unit on both  
sides for maximum strength in  
rough floor or docking applica-  
tions. Drive unit is top and bottom  
mounted. Top mount is a large,  
tapered roller bearing for vertical  
or horizontal forces. Bottom mount  
has four shock mounted rollers on  
drive unit running in a hardened  
steel roller race. Gear train runs in  
oil-filled, sealed housing.  
Pull rod design incorporates a  
replaceable “tenon” design for  
fast servicing of pull rod while still  
in the truck.  
Power Unit Structure  
Rugged steel doors are  
Caster System  
suspended on heavy-duty pin  
hinges. Doors swing wide for  
good access. Doors also can be  
lifted off for unrestricted service  
access. Door bolts have exclusive  
convex design that mates with  
concave door holes for fast rein-  
stallation of bolts. Heavy steel skirt  
surrounds entire area.  
To facilitate pallet entry/exit  
Standard on the PE 4000 Series  
are shim free, spring-loaded,  
articulating, stabilizing casters  
designed and manufactured by  
Crown for increased truck perfor-  
mance and service life.  
Other Options  
1. Audible travel alarm  
Crown has engineered several  
features into their fork assembly.  
Standard-tip forks have pallet  
entry rollers to lift fork over bottom  
board of pallet. Rollers are made  
of high molecular weight polyeth-  
ylene with .75" axle and roll pin.  
2. Flashing lights  
Safety considerations and dangers  
associated with audible travel  
alarms and flashing lights include:  
Crown has designed two optional  
caster systems for the PE 4000  
Series to meet high-volume  
warehouse requirements:  
Multiple alarms and/or lights  
can cause confusion.  
Workers ignore the alarms  
and/or lights after day-in and  
day-out exposure.  
Extended-tip fork design has  
totally enclosed tip, with full  
length convex bottom surface  
creating an entry ramp. Ramp  
design helps fork glide over  
bottom boards of pallet and keeps  
welded edges from touching  
bottom boards of pallet.  
Brake  
Internal expanding mechanical  
brake with fin-cooled 6" drum.  
Braking on PE is actuated by  
control handle position.  
Option 1: Quick adjustment  
casters enable braking, traction,  
steer effort and stability to be  
“balanced” based on your specific  
applications. This system can also  
increase drive tire life by as much  
as 60 percent by permitting more  
tire wear.  
Operator may transfer the  
responsibility for “looking out”  
to the pedestrians.  
Annoys operators and  
pedestrians.  
Pallet Planning Guide  
On standard-tip fork models, the  
load wheel will drop in the second  
opening of the pallet when “A” or  
“B” dimension equals the nominal  
fork length. On extended-tip fork  
models, the load wheel will drop  
in the first opening of the second  
Abrasion resistant steel entry/exit  
slides on both sides of each fork  
have convex bottom surfaces to  
prevent snagging as forks move  
over bottom boards of pallet. One  
piece design with radiused edges  
are welded away from contact  
point of slide.  
Dimensions and performance  
data given may vary due to man-  
ufacturing tolerances. Perfor-  
mance is based on an average size  
vehicle and is affected by weight,  
condition of truck, how it is  
equipped and the conditions of  
the operating area. Crown prod-  
ucts and specifications are sub-  
ject to change without notice.  
Option 2: All of the advantages of  
quick adjustment casters are  
yours, in addition to a torsion bar  
suspension that maximizes stabili-  
ty on tall, unwieldy and less stable  
loads.  
B
A
Exit roller design prevents load  
wheel from dropping after cross-  
ing bottom board. The 4" wide,  
steel exit roller is positioned  
directly behind the load wheel to  
keep the fork rolling. Entry/exit  
slide design also assists in trouble  
free pallet entry/exit.
