Hyster H40FTS NO Power

I have a H40FTS that automatically revs at idle and when the brake is applied but only idles when moving forward or reverse. Only 49 hours on lift truck. Any help on figuring out the power issue would be very helpful.

Hi ,it may be having a hydraulic actuated valve for acceleration, this usually fails, valve gets stuck either in high rev or does not respond at all when you step on it , try to verify what kind of valve you got on your machine
