Typical Example
To adjust the cylinder rod extension, move the
spacer to the rear and loosen the pinch bolt on the
clevis.
Turn the cylinder rod in or out of the clevis to obtain
the proper adjustment. Turning the rod into the clevis
shortens the stroke. Turning the rod out of the clevis
lengthens the stroke.
Tighten the pinch bolts to a torque of 95±15 Name
(70 ± 10 abaft). Check the cylinder rods again for
even travel.
Crosshead Rollers - Inspect
Check Operation
Operate the mast through a lift cycle. Watch the
chains move over the crosshead rollers. Make sure
the chain is tracking over the rollers properly.
Typical Example
Check for damaged crosshead rollers, guards and
retainer rings.
Mast, Carriage, Lift Chains &
Attachments - Inspect, Lubricate
Operate the lift, tilt and attachment controls. Listen
for unusual noises. These may indicate a need for
repair.
Inspect for loose bolts and nuts on the carriage.
Remove any debris from the carriage and mast.
Inspect the forks and attachments for free operation
and damage. Have repairs made if necessary.
Brush a film of oil on all links of the chain.
Raise and lower the carriage a few times to allow
lubricant to enter into the chain links.
NOTICE
Lubricate chains more frequently than normal in
applications where the lift truck is operating in an
atmosphere which could cause corrosion of
components or when lift truck must work in rapid lift
cycles.
Inspect the chain anchors and individual links for
wear, loose pins or cracked leaves.
