Cat Lift Trucks (& Caterpillar) P33000:
Fork positioner

The forks are straining to go in and when you go out one fork takes off and when it hits the side then the other fork takes off. There is a what I believe is called a cushion valve on that Directional Control Valve, but I have adjusted it so many times and it is not helping. I have swapped solonoids, spools, cleaned everything out. There is a spare DCV blocked with the rest, I am considering moving everything over to that one but I am stumped. I have been working on this thing for 2 days. It seems like there is something hanging up or trash somewhere, but I dont know. The only thing I can come up with is that it's inside the DCV. I have bleed lines on the mast, cleaned out a small valve mounted inside the mast.

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED
Thanks,
Scott
