Using a Vintage Clark Forklift to load scrap 

When sitting on the forklift there should be a number on the side of the forklift. below the up and down controls near the engine bay on the outside of the body. Should be a cl and numbers after it Which means car loader. So when Clark made these Forklifts they made them manual transmission up till 1946. In 1947 the came out with hydro transmission. Surf around the internet you will find more. Mine like your is missing the plate as well. Here's a link to the book I found online: www.clarkmhc.com/resources/OperatorManual/O-B81/O-B81.pdf If it doesn't work copy and paste. Hope this helps and Thank You for watchin and the question.
