The Hyster FT series lift truck is equipped with starter lockout. If the starter is engaged for a period of time( can't remember the actual time frame), the system will lock out the starter. You have to turn the key off and retry to reset. If the starter drops out before this time or slows, I would guess a starter fault. I correctly tuned engine, Vortec 4, or Mazda, will start rather quickly.
