ABSTRACT:
A lift truck in which a hood on which is mounted an operator's seat normally covers a compartment housing a vehicle drive component, such as a battery. The hood has an opening registrable with a valve block, the hood being pivotable rearwardly of the truck to expose the drive component, the valve block being pivotable forwardly of the drive component compartment when the hood is open so as to enable the drive component to be elevated from the truck without interference from the hood or valve control. The valve block is pivotably mounted on an angle member which extends over a portion of the drive component when in operative position and which may swing forwardly from a pivot located at the lower end of a vertical leg thereof to an inoperative position when the hood is raised.
