PalletPal 360 Manual

6.2    Ordering Replacement Parts

Southworth has carefully chosen the components in your PalletPal to be the best available for the 

purpose. Replacement parts should be identical to the original equipment. Southworth will not be 

responsible for equipment failures resulting from the use of incorrect replacement parts or from 

unauthorized modifications of the machine.

Southworth offers replacement parts for your Southworth machine. With your order, please include 

the model number and the serial number of the machine. 
To order replacement parts, please call the Parts Department. See Warranty & Contact 

Information section.
Parts are shipped subject to the following terms:

•  FOB factory
•  Returns only with the approval of our parts department.
•  Payment net 30 days (except parts covered by warranty).
•  Freight collect (except parts covered by warranty).
•  The warranty for repair parts is 30 days from date of shipment.

Parts replaced under warranty are on a “charge-credit” basis. We will invoice you when we ship 

the replacement part, then credit you when you return the worn or damaged part, and we verify 

that it is covered by our warranty. Labor is not covered under warranty for Parts orders.

7.  Troubleshooting

Problem

Possible Cause

Check This

The unit lowers too easily 

(too early).

The spring combination may 

be too weak for the load.

Check the spring ratings.

See Spring Selection Section.

The unit does not lower 

enough (too late).

The spring combination may 

be too strong for the load.

Check the spring ratings.

See Spring Selection Section.

The top of the unit rotates 

away from you.

The frame of the unit may not 

be level.

Move the unit to a level surface or 

install the optional adjusting feet.

The top of the unit bounces.

The motion stabilizer may be 

damaged.

Check for leaks or dents. Replace 

if damaged.

Excessive “rumble” when the 

ring rotates

Wear or lack of lubrication to 

bearings under rotating ring.

Remove turntable, lubricate or 

replace bearings.

Uniform wear or metal flaking 

from underside of rotating 

ring.

Normal condition caused by 

work-hardening of metal.

No repair necessary.  This will 

stop once the rotator ring wears 

in.
