Upright Removal
The following procedures are for uprights with carriage
and forks, or auxiliary components removed. See Section
7, “Fork and Carriage Removal and Replacement,” for
instructions on removing the forks and carriage.
WARNING
!
The upright assembly is heavy. Use only
hoists with enough capacity to lift the entire
assembly. Keep clear of the assembly as it is
being hoisted and set down. Keep hands and
feet away from the assembly. Use prybars to
move the assembly into position for reattach-
ment.
1. Attach a hoist and strap of adequate capacity to the
upright as shown below. Tension the hoist so that the
upright cannot fall when upright mounting pins and
tilt cylinder pins are removed.
2. Disconnect and cap hydraulic line at the load-lower-
ing flow valve. Secure the hose out of the way of the
upright.
