Forward Drive

Hi all,

My T40D doesn't like to drive forwards!
Reverse is fine, as are lift & tilt.
Any ideas?
Also, does anyone have a service or parts manual for this model?

im having the same issue, some lifts have a safety neutral with the unit like if some one gets off the unit it autos to neutral, the switches that control thaat such as the seat may be the problem, im having a prob like that with my cat 3500, my assumption is yours is a toyota.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
