Procedures:

Preparing
– Park the truck securely.

– Move the lift mast to its vertical position.

– Remove the outer cylinders. Tilt the outer cylinders inwards and secure them against slipping using long cable ties. See the chapter entitled “Removing/installing outer cylinders”.
– To ensure that the chain ends (threaded rods) are free when the inner mast is lowered, remove the safety caps from the load chains on both sides.

Support rollers: bottom of inner mast and top of outer mast
– Lower the inner mast until the lower supporting rollers on the inner mast are exposed.
– Remove the wear strips on both sides. Pull out the support rollers from the bearing pins.
– Clean the bearing pins. Fit the new support rollers and use shim rings if necessary.
– Check the wear strips for wear and replace them as necessary.

– As the inner mast has been lowered, the upper support rollers on the outer mast are also exposed.
– Pull out the support rollers from the bearing pins on both sides.
– Clean the bearing pins. Fit the new support rollers and use shim rings if necessary.
– Adjust the play of the support rollers. See the chapter entitled “Support roller play”.
– Lift the inner mast using the hydraulic jack until the support rollers and wear strips are completely within the profile of the outer mast.

NOTE
To ensure that the wear strips in the mast profile do not bend, position the hydraulic jack in the centre of the lower crossmember.

 

– Raise the inner mast until the bottom locking screws on the hydraulic cylinders are exposed. Lower the inner mast onto supporting blocks.
– Install the outer cylinders. See the chapter entitled “Removing/installing outer cylinders”.
