Clark GCS17 derated capacity

The capacity is missing on this truck. Can someone tell me what the derated capacity of a Clark GCS17 equipped with an 83-188 (4775MM) triple mast and forks only would be? It does not have an attachment.
I am looking for what the capacity is at 188".

I have contacted a Clark dealer and waiting to here back.

Back in the day Clark had a chart on their spec sheets showing what the reduced capacity was at preferred lift heights with forks only.

you'll need to get the truck serial number off the frame and mast numbers off the mast and call clark

this would be your easiest solution instead of going by anyones guesses from here.

With liability being what it is- I'd contact the local Clark dealer & get a new data plate for the machine. I believe OSHA requires one anyway
