Picked up a much needed forklift. Tag says, Series 600. A couple questions for the experts. 1. Where is the serial number on a 600 forklift? 2. Were the engines red, or is this a farm tractor repower/ 3. The motor stamp reads 15-4744-T. What does that make it. I know the 15 makes it a D15, but what about the T? Thanks for the help. Hasen't run in a few years. I ran it enough to get to the shop, but there is so much rust in the tank that I had to blow out the fuel line every 20 feet or so. It need a few thing to make it good. Starters is going to be a new fuel tank and a carb rebuild. Oh, and then some manuals so I can learn what some of the features are. LOL, Thanks, Old    ------------- 1942 Farmall H 1940 Allis B 1944 Allis B 1945 2N 1947 8N 1948 8N 1951 8N 1949 JD M 1951 JD A 1951 JD AW 1951 WD 1952 Allis D Grader 1957 D14 1958 D17 1961 Case 440L 1963 IH Lo Cub< |

With some paint stripper, I found the machine number. 600 1547FL. 600 is the series and 1547 puts it as a first year, 1966. And FL is forklift, I would imagine. I think the engine is from a farm tractor also, as I see most of the other 600's on the net have yellow engines.

| When I worked in the salvage yard everything got painted the manufacturers main color. Got bitched at because I painted an 8N block red instead of Ford blue. If it was Allis it was orange. Didn't matter if it was industrial |

| I have an I600 forklift, the older style with rounded sheet metal instead of the flat, angular like yours. My dad bought it new in the 60’s, it’s all original yellow. |

From what I find on the innerweb, the motor is a 1961 D15. Old ------------- 1942 Farmall H 1940 Allis B 1944 Allis B 1945 2N 1947 8N 1948 8N 1951 8N 1949 JD M 1951 JD A 1951 JD AW 1951 WD 1952 Allis D Grader 1957 D14 1958 D17 1961 Case 440L 1963 IH Lo Cub< |
