An AC forklift is coming for sale. I have not seen it yet, but this is the numbers L80-FPL80-24. Is the 80 for 80 horsepower? What does FPL stand for? I realize parts will be an issue. I am assuming that it is an engine that had other uses. Any help would be appreciated. Joel

i think the 80 means 8,000 pound lift... or about 13,000 pound machine.
i though an FL was "Forktrk liquid propane" ........ and FP was "petrol"... or gasoline. ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |

yes, 80 means 8,000 pound lift,probably good for a tad more too !! FPD means a diesel powered,THAT I KNOW as I have an FPD50-24-2PS 2PS might mean 2 speed,automatic. I also know that the driveshaft U-joints( double Carden (?) were never greased. It needs to be replaced ( no needles...still works though, shhh) Not too sure HOW you'ld get a 13,000# beastie up off the ground for service though... http://www.liberatedmanuals.com" rel="nofollow - www.liberatedmanuals.com has 1,000s of manuals, if you put allis 8000 into the 'search' option it'll narrow it down to maybe 20-50, then download 'this might be it',open, read, try again.... ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

Tilt the mast full back. Place a big wood block under the base of the mast. Tilt the mast full forward. Tires will lift off the ground, place blocks under tires. Tilt mast back and repeat. ------------- Ten Amendments, Ten Commandments, and one Golden Rule solve most every problem. Citrus hand-cleaner with Pumice does the rest. |
