Abstract
A shift control system for an industrial vehicle includes a vehicle speed monitor, a vehicle speed limit value setting section, a gear determination section, and a control section. The vehicle speed monitor is configured to monitor and detect an actual vehicle speed of the industrial vehicle. The vehicle speed limit value setting section is configured to set a vehicle speed limit value. The gear determination section is configured to select a transmission gear position of the transmission based on the actual vehicle speed and the vehicle speed limit value. The control section is configured to control the transmission in response to the selected transmission gear position. The gear determination section maintains the transmission in the currently-selected transmission gear position when the vehicle speed limit value is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold value and the threshold value is greater than an upshifting vehicle speed for upshifting the transmission.
