Yes, it absolutely does — and in great detail.
This OEM Hyster Service & Repair Manual includes complete step-by-step instructions for removing and reinstalling the cylinder head on your H70FT, along with all required torque specifications and timing mark references. Everything you need for a full teardown and reassembly of the top end is covered.
The procedures are found in the engine-specific sections of the manual. Since the H70FT was available with multiple engine options (GM 4.3L V6, Mazda 2.0/2.2L, or Yanmar Diesel), the manual includes separate chapters for each engine. Regardless of your setup, the relevant engine section will guide you through:
- Camshaft and cylinder head bolt torque specs (with multi-stage procedures)
- Timing chain/belt alignment and timing mark diagrams
- Clearances and service limits for valves and head components
- Special tools required for the job
The manual also provides the torque specs for each fastener in the cylinder head, camshaft, intake, exhaust, and front cover assemblies. It also includes special notes for multi-stage torque sequences and degrees of rotation where needed.
So if you're tackling a head gasket job, replacing the cylinder head, or just need to verify clearances and timing — you're covered. This is the real-deal factory guide used by certified techs.
