Clark SF20-30 D,L,G and CMP20-30 D,LG Forklift Service Manual (SM688)

These Clark SF20-30 and CMP20-30 trucks usually live in warehouses, loading docks, and yards, moving pallets all day around racking and trailers. This service manual is what I’d keep open when I need to trace a drivability issue, tear into an engine or transmission, or verify adjustments after a repair. For example, if a truck starts losing power under load and won’t climb a ramp, I’d use this book to step through the checks on fuel, ignition or LPG setup, and confirm what to test before I start swapping parts.

Applications & Use Cases

• Diagnose hard-start, low-power, or stalling complaints on diesel, gasoline, or LPG units using a logical symptom-to-test approach.
• Plan and sequence disassembly/assembly on engine and related systems so you don’t miss brackets, shims, or seals.
• Verify adjustments after replacing components like linkages, controls, or fuel-related parts.
• Isolate hydraulic or lift issues by following systematic checks instead of guessing at cylinders or pumps.
• Support periodic overhauls with a clear workflow for inspection, cleaning, and reassembly.

FAQ

Q: Can I use this manual on a tablet in the shop?

A: Yes, it’s practical to keep it open on a tablet so you can zoom diagrams and search while working around the truck.

Q: Is it worth printing sections?

A: Many techs print only the pages for the job at hand, so they can mark notes and keep greasy hands off their device.

Safety Note

Always lock out the truck, secure raised components, and relieve system pressures before you loosen, remove, or test anything.
