Cat Lift Trucks (& Caterpillar) WP4500:
cuts out/Code 0305

Machine will start up, lifts and lowers, will start to travel then all of a sudden cuts out. Reset the handle and it will do the same thing over again. Have code of 0305? Any help would be much appreciated!

Did you ever figure out what the problem was I'm having the same problem with mine. It will lift and lower but I get the E0305 as soon as I try to move it

check the switch at the base of the control handle arm at the motor compartment, it may be faulty
code 05 is brake unit issue
also check wiring to brake unit

The Michelin Guide with its star rating system originated in France in 1900. The guide was created as a marketing tool to encourage more car travel and consequently increase the demand for tyres. It initially contained maps, tire repair instructions, and lists of restaurants, hotels, and mechanics.
