Lifting Slow too soon

When raising carriage the lift is starting to raise slow too soon. How do you change the setting to get the mast to raise slow within the foot from top?

Apparently the "Features" setting was at Zero and one of our guys reset the settings along with others. Thanks for the help

Make sure the height is programmed in the features is correct to the data plate first. Then check the adjustment on the mast chains and calibrate the height encoder. Encoder is calibrated by calibrating the lowering valve just make sure you raise to full height of mast and not to just up to whatever so you will have to be careful of overhead obstructions

It depends if it has a height encoder or if it has a 12 inch switch

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.
