122056000200 Inching Switch 2 for Mitsubishi OPB3E Forklift
Overview
The 122056000200 Inching Switch 2 is a Mitsubishi replacement switch for the inching function on electric powered pallet trucks. The inching control lets the operator creep the truck forward or backward at very low speed — essential when positioning loads on docks, working in narrow aisles, or fine-tuning pallet placement. When this switch wears out, operators often notice erratic travel response, inconsistent low-speed control, or an inching function that no longer engages smoothly. Installing the correct 122056000200 Inching Switch 2 restores the precise speed modulation these trucks depend on, helping keep both operators and loads under control.
Compatibility
This switch fits a range of Mitsubishi electric powered pallet trucks, including:
- OPB3E
- PBP series: PBP15E, PBP15E2, PBP18E, PBP20EA, PBP25EA
- PBV series: PBV20EA, PBV20EAH
The PBP and PBV models are widely used in warehouses, retail backrooms, and distribution centers, so the 122056000200 for OPB3E and these PBP/PBV trucks is a common service item. Before ordering, always confirm the part number along with your truck’s model and serial number — fitment can vary between production runs.
Quality and Reliability
The 122056000200 is a Mitsubishi-branded component produced to the original equipment design, so it matches the fit, connectors, and switching behavior of the part it replaces. A dependable inching switch matters: inconsistent electrical contact translates into jerky creep speed and unpredictable load handling. This replacement is built for the duty cycles typical of pallet truck applications, delivering stable, repeatable performance through repeated actuations.
Installation and Maintenance Tips
- Disconnect the battery and follow proper lockout procedures before working on any electrical component.
- Consult the truck’s service manual to access the control head and switch location.
- While the old switch is removed, inspect the wiring harness and connectors for corrosion, cracked insulation, or loose terminals.
- Mount the new switch, reconnect all terminals securely, and test inching response in both directions before returning the truck to service.
- During routine maintenance, check switch actuation and its linkage for smooth, consistent travel to catch wear early.
