Discussion:
No forward or reverse

Hi
I have an old Clark GPM 17 serial no M265-2032-GEF 7455 that has lost traction. The customer said he was going in reverse and braked then selected forward and then nothing. When I arrived on site I checked the Inching pedal linkage, and the adjusting rod came off. Also the inching pedal did go back up and I reattached the rod and tried the truck jacked up. After applying power the wheel moved slowly, I changed the direction lever but the wheel carried on going in the same direction. Has anybody experienced anything like this, or have any suggestions that may help?

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
