Older E18 - mast working but not driving

Hi, hoping someone can help me. I recently inherited a linde 18c-02 the serial number is H2X335K05977, it was laid up for a few years.
I can raise and lower the mast, tilt and side shift ok.
When I try to drive the truck forward or reverse it won't move but I don't see any error code.

The hand brake is down, the seat switch is working, I hear a tiny click when I press the forward pedal, when I press reverse the beeper is so loud I can't hear if there is a click or not.

The battery is on 2 bars flashing, waiting on a charger to arrive but I assume the truck should try to move even with 2 bars but asking for help or advice on this. Have I missed something fundamental that needs to happen before the truck can move?
Thanks

Fact of the week
The black box flight recorder was invented by Australian scientist David Warren in the mid-1950s. While initially met with indifference in Australia, his invention gained international recognition, particularly in the UK, and is now a mandatory piece of safety equipment on all commercial aircraft.
