2.
Move the lift truck toward the carriage until
the inner mast is aligned with the carriage roll-
ers. If the inner mast has been raised and se-
cured using a crane and safety chains, connect
the crane, raise the inner mast, and remove the
safety chains. Carefully lower the inner mast
until it engages all of the load rollers. Discon-
nect the crane, if attached, and reconnect the
lift cylinders. See the section Cylinder Repair

3.
Check the clearance of the load rollers. See Car-
riage Adjustments in this section.
NOTE:
Use new cotter pins each time the anchor
pins are removed.
4.
Connect the lift chains to the chain anchors at
the carriage. Install the cotter pins in the an-
chor pins. Adjust the lift chains as described in
Carriage Adjustments in this section.
5.
Install the backrest on the carriage. Tighten
the capscrews to 195 N•m (144 lbf ft).
6.
Install the forks. See Fork Replacement.
STANDARD CARRIAGE, REMOVE
1.
Put a one-quarter capacity load on the forks.
The load must give the carriage stability so the
carriage cannot fall when it is disconnected
from the mast.
2.
Lower the carriage and forks on blocks so the
lift chains become loose.
3.
Remove the load backrest.
WARNING
When disconnecting the lift chains, keep control
of the ends. Use wire to temporarily connect the
ends of the lift chains to the mast. This procedure
will prevent the lift chains from falling from the
sheaves and causing an injury or damage.
4.
Remove the pin from each chain anchor at the
carriage. See Figure 11. Disconnect the lift
chains from the carriage. Use wire to connect
the ends of the lift chains to a part of the mast.
Make sure the chains can move freely when the
inner mast is raised.

WARNING
To help prevent possible injury, make sure the
carriage is stable when the inner mast is above
the load rollers of the carriage.
5.
Use the lift cylinders to raise the inner or inter-
mediate mast. If the hydraulic system cannot
be used, disconnect the lift cylinders from the
inner or intermediate mast. Connect a crane
[the capacity of the crane must be at least
681 kg (1501 lb)] to the top of the inner mast.
Carefully raise the inner mast until it is above
the load rollers of the carriage.
