Torque Specifications
Metric Hardware - This lift truck is almost
totally metric design. Specifications are
given in metric and U.S. Customary
measurement.
Metric hardware must be replaced with metric
hardware. Check parts books for proper
replacement.
NOTE: Use only metric tools on most hardware for
proper fit. Other tools could slip and
possibly cause injury.
