hydraulics Drift

All three hydraulic functions drift after releasing the finger controls. We didn't have this problem until we reset some of the perimeters on the forklift. Is there a setting that would make the hydraulics drift?

That can happen. You can do a reset defaults and this will reset to factory presets.

Thank you for the info. It did calibrate the valves but the drifting was in the setting on the lift lower ramp. I had it set at 1 and changed it to 10 this stopped the drifting. Thanks again

Once you select the function, you move the minilever until the function starts to move then hit the * button. Do the next function the same way. Once you have them all done, scroll until you see exit and save.

We do. I tried to calibrate them but I couldn't get it take the calibration. Didn't really understand the (press star at creep. Can you maybe explain that a little better.

You need to calibrate the levers. Do you have access to the dash service level password?
