We have a Daewoo GC30s. The first stage will full travel to the top before the second stage begins to move upward just as it should, when there is no load on the forks. However, when lifting a load the second stage will begin to move upward almost immediately with first stage, then telescope upward to full travel. Our operators are complaining about having trouble controlling the down function of the forks when placing a load on our storage racks approx. 8-10 feet above floor level.

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.
