K. LIFT CYLINDER
1. General
As previously stated, the lift cylinder
receives hydraulic oil under pressure from
the control valve to raise the lift cylinder
plunger or plungers, depending upon the
type of mast assembly. The hydraulic oil
is applied at the base of the lift cylinder or
near the center or the cylinder and
compels the plunger(s) to extend.
A flow regulator, which is located at the
base of the lift cylinder, controls the/flow of
hydraulic oil so the load lowers at a
controlled rate of speed from the raised
