Part of the Case Repair Manuals.
Steering pressure checks, transmission stall diagnosis, and mast service on Case's G Series forklifts get settled by one document: the Case 586G, 588G repair manual PDF, OEM 87728464, putting 691 pages of factory procedure behind both models. A complete schematic set closes out the book, tracing hydraulic circuits and electrical wiring so you can follow a dead solenoid or a lazy lift circuit back to its source. Power train coverage takes up roughly a third of the total, walking the standard transmission, drive axle, and planetaries from pressure check through teardown and reassembly. Torque two wheel drive steering cylinder mounting screws to 335 Nm (247 lb-ft), then seat the rear wheels at 156 to 203 Nm. Mast drift under load ruins your whole week. This bookmarked, text searchable PDF is bought once; download it and it stays yours for the life of the truck.
