Help finding starter and decoding model number

I recently picked up an older yale off road fork lift. It is missing the starter and I'm trying to find a one for it. The model number doesn't match anything I can find online as far as identifying/decoding yale model numbers. Model number is G87T-060-FRS-103 serial # A-200750 and it has a 201cid 3cyl. Ford diesel engine. When i try to decode the model number the internet says that diesel model numbers should start with GD, which mine does not, and I can't find any starting with G87T. I figured out what the 060 and the 103 are for but can't find what the FRS represents. Any help decoding the model number and how to figure out what starter I need would be appreciated.
