Vehicle Systems Testing And Adjusting

Carriage and Mast Height Adjustment

1. Move the mast either forward or backward so it is

in the vertical position.

2. Lower the carriage completely.

3. On Full Free Lift and Full Free Triple Lift models,

the bottom of the inner mast must be even with

the bottom of the stationary mast.

4. Measure the distance from the bottom of the inner

upright to the bottom of carriage bearing.

5. The measurement (A) must be as follows:

STD.................................................................Zero

FFL & FFTL ............41 L 1.5 mm (1.61 L .06 in)

NOTE: On Standard Lift models the bearing must be

even (flush) with the inner mast.

If the above measurements are not correct, make

adjustments to the chains to get the correct mea-

surement. See Chain Adjustments in TESTING AND

ADJUSTING.

Forks Parallel Check

1. Lift the mast and operate the tilt control lever, until

the top surface of the forks is parallel with the

floor. Place two straight bars, that are the same

width as the carriage, across the forks as shown.

Measure the distance from the bottom of each end

of the two bars to the floor. The forks must be par-

allel within 3 mm (.12 in) for Full Tapered and

Polished (FTP) forks, all other forks 6.4 mm (.25

in), for their complete length.

2. If not parallel put one fork, one third back from the

tip, under a fixture that will not move. Then oper-

ate the tilt control with caution until the rear of the

truck just lifts off of the floor. Follow the same pro-

cedure with the second fork, and then check the

forks again as in Step 1.
