BT OP1000 HSE- lift/lower speeds

Hi.

Does anyone have any service manuals for a BT OP 1000HSE?
I need to adjust the lowering speed of the cab. All the proxy switches are working correctly but the cab doesn't slow down when lowering and slams to the floor.
Any suggestions?
Cheers.

It doesn't have a 2nd pump under the floor plates so it must be a series 2/3.
The mini mast still lowers correctly using the same joystick so I doubt it will due to the grub screw falling out or coming loose but I will check it out. We've had a few faults with these machines and it's always come back to being a faulty card but not sure what's causing them to fail so frequently.

Thanks for your help.
Is it a series 1, 2 or 3?

Series 1 have the extra hydraulic pump under the cab floor for the forks.

Series 2 & 3 don't.

These OP can have an issue with the joystick control, the grub screw falls out.

Normally what then happens, the cab is at height & then will drop very quickly until the operator panics & releases the right hand dead man handle.

Refitting the grub screw with thread lock solves / stops that issue.

Fact of the week
Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
