I'm Just wondering if anyone can help, we have a UK built translift-bendi fork lift, (BE420-82) with a steering problem.

The fork lift will steer right fine, but when the operator tries to steer left it locks up and becomes nearly impossible to turn left. The truck also gets very hot whilt trying to steer.

We have had a new steering column fitted, battery tested and proven fine by Bendi. We are running out of ideas, has anyone else encountered this problem? The truck was made in 2008 and UK manufactured.

thanks,

Jonathan
