Tightening head bolts

I have a hyster S60XM, serial# D187V17353X. It has a GM 3.0L, gas engine. I was hoping maybe someone could send me a picture of the sequence for tightening the head bolts on this lift. Thanks in advance.

according to the manual specs on the GM 3.0 engine in your serial number designation D187 the valves are non adjustable.
