Toyota counter balance machines have SAS which will restrict the mast tilt forward once the forks are in the main lift area.
In the UK, I woud always advise that, when checking the hydraulic systems, the lift function is checked over the whole range with the mast vertical. This will (a) prove that it works correctly, (b) lubricate the hydrualic ccylinders, (c) discharge any build-up of fluid over the pistons. With the fork arms lowered to eye level, the tilt and sideshift, and any other function should be checked. In some trucks, the extent of mast tilt at high level is restricted so any tilt check at this level is compromised.
I am in the understanding that you check the mast to full extent then lower to maintain stability then check side shift then tilt when you can see them.
