Discussion:
Mast lowers slow

Does anyone know about electric forklifts? I have a clark 3 wheel 4400 lb. It wont lower the mast all of a sudden. Nothings tight it doesnt seem to release the mast pressure. Valve makes no sound now when you pull on it. Thinking solenoid or relay. Just wondering if anyone knew?

It's a Clark tm 25. The mast will settle but really really slowly. It happened all of a sudden. Was working fine. I can't see anything tight on the mast.

Up tilt and side shift work fine.

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.
