Very abrupt deceleration - jerks to stop

The forklift jerks to a stop when you take foot off the pedal. Its a Techtronix 100 trasnmission and we have changed the auto deceleration and brake overlap settings but it seems to have no impact.

Showing items 1 - 5 of 5 results.
So we have done this as well as replaced tiss and toss and while its improved, but it still stops somewhat abruptly. now it kind-off drifts for awhile and then brakes. Any other next steps? I really appreciate your advice.
