These Clark Carloader D machines spend their lives shuttling pallets, crates, and freight in warehouses, loading docks, and rail sidings, usually in tight spaces and around the clock. This maintenance manual helps you plan and carry out the routine service that keeps them steering straight, lifting smoothly, and starting reliably. When you’re chasing something like a slow mast lift or a noisy drive axle, this is the book you grab to trace the issue methodically instead of just swapping parts.
