Fluids and maintenance

I have a small welding business and I use an old Yale forklift to move steel. I can't find any kind of maintenance manual for a forklift as old as mine. Im trying to figure out what type of hydraulic fluid I need. Id also like to find the types of trans fluid, oil, etc.. I need.

Its an old Yale model GLP040ADJUAE085LPS

thanks for the help
