A402096 Pedal As-Inching for Doosan D15/18S5 Forklifts

Overview

The A402096 Pedal As-Inching is a replacement inching pedal assembly for a range of Doosan diesel forklifts. The inching pedal is a critical control on any counterbalance truck: it lets the operator creep forward or backward at very low speed while the engine keeps delivering full power to the hydraulic pump. That means smoother fork positioning, safer load handling in tight aisles, and less strain on the drivetrain during start-and-stop work.

When this pedal wears out, operators notice excessive play, inconsistent engagement, or a pedal that no longer returns cleanly. Replacing it with the A402096 restores the precise, responsive pedal feel your Doosan truck was designed for.

Compatibility

The A402096 for D15/18S5 trucks also covers several closely related Doosan series:

• D15/18S5 series diesel forklifts
• D20SC-5 / D20SC5 trucks (serial prefixes SB1089 and SB1127)
• D20/25/30/33S5 series forklifts
• D35C5 trucks (serial prefix SB1092, Cummins B3.3 engine)

Model codes alone do not always tell the whole story, as some Doosan chassis used variant components during production. Before ordering, check the part against your truck’s model and serial number — our team can verify fitment for you.

Quality and Reliability

This A402096 Pedal As-Inching is produced to match the dimensions, mounting points, and linkage geometry of the original Doosan assembly. The pedal pad, pivot, and return mechanism are built for the daily demands of warehouse, yard, and dock duty, where the inching pedal may be pressed hundreds of times per shift. A correct-fit inching pedal protects more than operator comfort: it helps preserve clutch and transmission function and keeps low-speed control predictable.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

• Disconnect the battery and let the truck cool before starting work.
• Have a qualified technician perform the replacement, as access may require floorplate removal.
• While the pedal is out, inspect the linkage, return spring, and pivot bushings for wear.
• Lubricate pivot points per the service manual and confirm smooth pedal return after installation.
• Check inching engagement and free travel, and adjust the linkage if required.

Regular inspection of the inching pedal during scheduled service helps catch wear early and prevent unplanned downtime.
