SIDESHIFT CARRIAGE (EARLIER
DESIGNS)
The earlier Hyster Company designs of sideshift car-
riages for this mast are shown in Figure 12 and Fig-
ure 13. These designs are used on lift trucks man-
ufactured through 1993. During the second half of
1993, a second design shown in Figure 14 was in-
stalled on lift trucks. The operation of the designs
are similar, but the components are different.
NOTE: See the section, Main Control Valve 2000
SRM 77 for information about the control valve link-
age for the sideshift carriage.
