General
This section contains repair procedures for tilt cylinders, main lift cylinders, and free-lift cylinders. The
number and the design of the parts can be different, but the operation of the cylinders is the same.
Description
This manual covers many different types of cylin-
ders. Each cylinder will be described in detail.
Tilt cylinders are fastened between the frame of the
lift truck and the outer weldment of the mast to
change the angle of the mast and forks.
Two single-stage main lift cylinders and a free-lift
cylinder are used to raise the carriage and extend
the mast weldments.
The two main lift cylinders are installed at the
back of the outer mast. The base of each lift cylin-
der sits on a mount at the bottom crossmember of
the outer mast. The top of each main lift cylinder
rod fits into a guide on the top crossmember of the
inner mast. The free-lift cylinder is installed in the
inner mast. Each of the lift cylinders has an inter-
nal lowering control valve. A single external lower-
ing control valve is connected by tubing and hoses
to all the lift cylinders.

On lift truck models listed below there are
two free-lift chains and chain sheaves.
