The serial number is ALH119563. I've found a lot info on AC tractors, and some on construction equipment, but I've found very little on the later model forklifts like the ACP series. My ACP 80 has a Continental F245 6 cyl LP engine, 8k lbs lift, and is an all-terrain unit (not rough-terrain). [Reply]   [No Email]

He says your lift was produced in October of 1979. That"s what the letters in your serial number mean. A= Madison Plant, L= October, H=1979. Hope this helps...Gary [Reply]  [No Email]

I have found it difficult to find information about the later model A/C forklifts online. This is very helpful. Thanks again, Nick [Reply]  [No Email]
