Slight Hijack on the way here, but.. :)

Apart of the handling issues, and innate idiosyncrasies, some of which may or may not be allieviated by the 40 or so operator settings the manual doesn't list...

It's the Errors being thrown when exiting the forklift once it start to get a bit cold. Apart from once when it gave a speciffic hydraulics controller error that I saw. It's just general electronics errors which doesn't tell a whole lot, most often E127. One even throws it when you are just lowering the forks.

I tried to reproduce it to our regular fixer, but of course it then refused to behave in that manner, the last couple of days of -5c outdoors temp, it's pretty much every time you leave the seat. While the fork lowering thing is a bit more random.

Lastly, not a big issue, but we really need to find a good lube for the ridicilous fork sliding mechanism. Those huge tubes need a lot of lube, and dries out all the time, making overextention of the spring mechanism likely.. at one time the thing seized on one truck (I seem to be the only one that takes note of how the trucks behave, until the point something breaks..)
