Mike, your suggestion is that for an Orderpicker, man up truck, (or pallet jack), the full speed be set to happen when fully lowered, while the operator is turned away from the steering hand crank and speed control, and will have the steering and drive unit in the trailing. is that correct? most operations I have seen have full speed enabled when the steering and power side of the truck is in the leading position
