Not lifting passed first stage.

Our Linde H40D recently had a load that was too heavy for it and it tipped forward with all the weight. Now it will not lift anything passed the first stage. Everything works fine without a load. Is there a sensor or something that I should look for? Thanks.

They leak internally. You might check the gland at the top of each cylinder. There is a 10 mm bleeder screw. If you remove the screw and and fluid pours out then the cylinder is leaking internally and needs to be repacked.

Everything is still straight, as far as I know nothing broke. I don't see fluid anywhere. I'll have to look into rupture valve. I have never heard of that before. Thanks.

My guess is that the secondary lift cylinders need to repacked.

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.
