Just purchased a 2008 Cat C5000 forklift
I have see on YouTube some like this raising and lowering the mast
When they do the RPMs go up a little bit
My 2008 C5000 dose not do this
Is there a adjustment for that to raise the RPMs when hydraulics are engaged
Also it has a switch on the dash the reads power and soft. What does that do
Thanks
