Hyster sold manuals to the local Army Depot, and to Goodyear but the would not sell them rights to the program to connect a laptop to the truck, nor certain troubleshooting manuals. So far Hyster hasn't allowed anyone but dealers access to the laptop program, nor access to the dash module, that I have heard about. When Uncle Sam can't get the program, and Goodyear, who has signed a big lease program at multiple facilities can't get it, it probably won't be available for anyone outside the dealers for awhile, legally.
