Cat Lift Trucks (& Caterpillar) ET4000:
Traction motor replacement.

Good day everyone!
Hey I have a client with an ET4000 that the hit something with the lower left traction motor. I can source a rebuilt one but I'm wondering what the best procedure is for accessing the motor? Raise the unit straight up? Remove the battery and flip it forward on the mast, or tip it sideways?
Thanks.
