I am in a similar position with my 1969 s30a. Would love any documentation I could find. Would also be happy to digitize or pay to digitize anything the community happens to have.

EDIT

I found a pdf, here's a link to whoever else might be in my situation:

Does any of the manuals you have cover the removal/reinstall of the hose reels? I recently replaced my hoses and when I reinstalled the reels, something isn't right. I'm assuming I'm supposed to rotate the springs a few turns because when I put them on and raised the mast, my hoses were not retracting properly. Any help on this issue is greatly appreciated.

Hi Randy, Haven't seen an e-mail, can you check the e-mail address, theres no "K" on the end of "andytruc" if that helps. I've got a parts manual although how many parts are still available from Hyster your guess is as good as mine. I've got maintenance and lubricant spec for an S30B machine (but should be relative) unless someone has the exact details pertaining to your machine. We've got a very used S20A service manual but it's so dirty, falling apart and not much help as goes way too technical without ever giving you the basics which i assume back then they guessed you'd know, or it's covered in a different manual. I've also got basic technical spec for you, pressures, speeds, timings etc.

Service life of a forklift is proportional to how well it is maintained.
