Hi, my forklift seems stuck.
when you push the forward lever it seems like it will go but when you accelerate he stays there and nothing happen,

it's an old C500 YS60 35 years old , I recently bought for almost nothing, I assume he stayed unused a couple of years not far from the sea , he is rusty, it was stopped because the brakes weren't braking

edit 1 :
I pulled on the clark with my tractor to see if the wheels are rolling, the clark moved 3 inches forward and it appears that the left wheels are rolling and the right wheels aren't

looks like I need to have a look on what 's going on with those wheels

edit 2 : I removed the axle end assembly and put it on my workbench, brake shoes were locked in the drum, I hammered and disassemble everyting, so now I will go get a new cylinder

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
