Mitsubishi FB18KT goes slowly

Hy guys, i need your help!!!
My Mitsubishi forklift goes slowly accelerator pedal fully pressed.
I controlled accelerator pedal : it's ok.
i controlled battery : ok.
I lifted the traction wheels , pressing the accelerator pedal to have a constant speed, but the speed increases gradually to reach 15km/h.
I have no error code on the dashboard.
If someone have technical book for this forklift!!

Check the wiring to the drive motors. Brush wear and temp sensor wiring underneath the motors. Make sure you chain your mast!
