Discussion:
Forks shift sluggish

Cat(Mitsubishi) PC 4000 - LP, 2008
Forks will not shift left/right at idle, rev up to about 1000-1500 RPM and they move but very sluggish and seem to draw down power.
almost seems like valving is not operating properly. Any ideas?

I also have to do the mast rollers on this unit. Looks like everything will need to come out the top on this one.
I've done master rollers before on other forklift models, but any specific tips on this one would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Fact of the week
Phytoplankton create at least half of the world's oxygen production, despite amounting to only about 1% of the global plant biomass. They also respond rapidly on a global scale to climate and environmental variations, so are often used as indicators of marine health.
