I would check to see if the contactor coil is strong and pulling the contacts in nice and quick. Put a volt meter on the coil and see if the voltage is pulsing on and off. If so, check the the switch in the control handle and your machine may a a lift limit switch the shuts off the high speed (M) contactor when the forks are raised over 24". If the wiring and switches all seem ok then it may need a new auxiliary card.

Every year for Thanksgiving, the President of the United States is given a live domestic turkey by the National Turkey Federation (NTF). While these turkeys used to be slaughtered and eaten, during the presidency of George H. W. Bush it became standard practice for the president to issue a ceremonial "pardon" to the turkey.
