Thanks for the reply Edward, yes I just changed the switch from open to close to make sure the lift is working or not, it's mean I have to change only tilt position safety switch and both lifting and tilt functions will be working fine?

you will need to correctly fix the operation of the safety device of the tilt switch.
(not reverse the switch, which, If I understand what you did, you changed the switch from a normally open switch to a normally closed switch).

"it's not rocket surgery"
Thanks for the support, I found the tilt position switch faulty, temporarily I bypass that switch ( change the cables Position from lower two points to upper point), mast is lifted to max height without any problem.
but I notice one more fault, the mast tilt down function is not working while the motor is still running only tilt up is working.

your support will be highly appreciated.

thanks again.

Check your tilt position switch. When mast is tilted full fwd the machine cuts lift above freelift zone.

Fact of the week
In the 1840's Valentine Day cards were popular. But a new trend developed where cynical, sarcastic, often mean-spirited cards were produced to be sent to people you disliked. 'Vinegar valentines' were postcards decorated with a mocking caricature and insulting poem. The unflattering cards reportedly created a stir throughout all social levels.
