Discussion:
Mast won't raise ?

Good Morning guys n gals

just bought my first used Hyster R2.0H electric truck. Bought at auction so yes I am aware I could be buying problems however besides the battery being flat the only issues I am having are as follows:-

*Alarm only works in reverse (not sure if it should work going forward ?)
*Lights dont work inc LED beacon.
*Mast won't raise

regarding the mast , I can look on the screen and when I move the joystick to the down position it does show on the screen as going down (with an arrow) however when I move the joystick to up the screen does not show as it is going up.
I have pressed the pedal and I have checked for error codes however there are no error codes.
I wasn't sure if there was a safety switch I should be aware of ?
Also the previous owner has bypassed the seatbelt switch.

any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated

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.
