Hi there everyone,Can someone 'please' assist me.
I recently purchased a reachstacker and I just cannot get the machine to start working for itself.I have done everything possible thus far.On purchasing the machine I found that the
boom had a tendency to go up or down on its own!,only once the machine ran for a few minutes.Upon advice from the local experts,I was told the pumps had to be changed,which I did,R75000-00 later! now even after installing these pumps,the boom still goes up or down on its own (depending which way we swop solenoids) after the machine heats up.We have tested the pilot pressure solenoids,switched them around and still have had no luck,We have even tested the joystick which seems fine,I have spent days and hights trying to figure what could possibly cause the boom to malfunction,Is there any anyone who could please assist me?
