lift motor

My crown is not lifting periodically. After it sits for a bit, it will lift the forks just like it is supposed to. I have changed out the lift contactor with no change. Is there anything else besides the motor that this could be?

I think l remember that on the right side of the mast there is a switch if it is not working or sticking will stop the lift motor. Also make sure that your battery is up you could have a lift interrupt happing that would stop the lift motor. Also if the contactor is coming in then check the motor cables for voltage if you have battery voltage at the motor posts than the motor is bad.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
