Variable Tilt Feature
The ESX truck is equipped with a tilt sensor and upright height limit
switch that sends signals to the truck controls. These inputs are
used to control the variable tilt features. The full and restricted tilt
ranges will differ depending on the Maximum Fork Height (MFH) of
the upright. The maximum restricted back tilt is stamped on the truck
capacity plate.
