Hyster HD 170 sensitive controls

I was operating an HD170 the other day and the controls seemed to alow a faster drop and lift speed than would be safe. The electronic controls are certainly easy to use. But the blades drop like a rock until you get used to it.
Is this a setting that can be changed?
