small Yale forklift model #

I have a 3000# yale forklift and am trying to figure out how old it is and what the model # is. The data plate is so banged up I cant read it. All I can make out for the model # is 030, there is a T and a 77. The serial # line has 228730. Can anyone make any sence of any of that?

I am cleaning it up to try to find the complete serial number. Thanks for all the help with this.

Call you local Yale dealer with the serial # and they can give you the model #. While you're at it, you should order a new capacity plate because one of OSHA's favorite things to go after are illegible spec/capacity plates.

Don't think this is enough info. The 030 means it is a basic 3000# lift capacity, the T can means a torque converter (powershift ) transmission or triple stage mast, the 77 means the mast has a 77" overal lowered height. The serial umber is not complete there needs to be a alpha character ( letter) which will provide the year of manufacture.
Check for a serial number that was stamped in the frame - start at a cross member on the front cowl (between the mast & front cowl. If not there keep looking. Maybe you can post a pic on this site to give some more clues or provide more info. Like is the truck enginr powered or electric? what is engine model? are tires pneumtic or press-on solids?

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
