Toyota Forklift Model Numbers Decoded

You can use a forklift’s model number to differentiate one forklift from another or communicate about your forklift effectively.

A Toyota 7FBCU35 electric forklift data plate
Each character in a Toyota forklift model number has a specific meaning and, when taken together, tell you lots about the lift truck

But these model numbers are challenging to understand. Thankfully, this section will serve as your Toyota forklift model number decoder.

So, let’s decipher some forklift model numbers.

The first thing to know is that Toyota forklift model numbers can be in two different formats, depending on their weight-lifting capacity:

  1. Core forklifts (up to 17,500 lbs. capacity)
  2. Heavy-duty forklifts (above 15,000 lbs. capacity)

Model Numbers for Core Toyota Forklifts

“Core” Toyota forklifts are the standard-duty models with lifting capacities of up to 17,500 lbs.

A Toyota 8FGCU25 cushion-tire LPG forklift
Core Toyota forklift model numbers follow a specific 7-10 character sequence

The model numbers for these lift trucks are usually 7-10 characters. We’ll use the most common Toyota forklift model number 8FGCU25 for reference (this is a 5,000 lb. capacity, cushion-tire, gas-powered forklift).

Series

The first character of a Toyota core forklift model number is usually a digit, denoting the series of the lift truck. The series is closely related to age. And while you can’t correlate the series number to a precise year, generally the series is sequential. That means a higher digit denotes a newer series. (We’ll talk a little bit more about age versus series in a later section).

A Toyota 8FGCU25 forklift next to a Toyota 7FGCU25 forklift
The first character in the model number denotes the truck series (e.g. 8FGCU25 or 7FGCU25)

The newest Toyota forklifts have model numbers starting with 8 or 9. For example, in the Toyota model number 8FGCU25, 8 is the series number – which also happens to be the latest series in that particular model (as of October 2022).

Truck Type

The second character is usually a letter denoting the truck type. It may be:

  • F = Forklift
  • H = Hand pallet jack
  • T = Tow tractor
  • B = Base legs (found on walkie stackers and reach trucks)

Fuel or Drive Type

The third character is also a letter denoting the equipment’s fuel or drive type. It could be:

  • G = Gasoline, liquified propane gas (LPG), or both (i.e. dual fuel)
  • D = Diesel
  • B = Battery-powered
  • W = Walk-behind (for example, walkie pallet jacks)
  • N = Narrow chassis (usually a stand-up counterbalance forklift)

Tire Type or Truck Style

The fourth (and sometimes fifth) character in the model number is a letter and it tells you either the tire type installed on the truck or about the style of the truck itself.

The 4/5 character tells you the tire type (e.g. cushion or pneumatic) or the truck style (e.g. high-capacity)
  • A = High-capacity forklift (7FGAU50)
  • C = The forklift has cushion tires (e.g. 8FGCU25; note: if there’s no “C”, the truck has pneumatic tires, e.g. 8FGU25)
  • H = The truck has a high-capacity battery (8FBCHU25)
  • E = Can mean either a 3-wheeler electric (8FBE15U) or and end-controlled rider truck (8HBE30)
  • P = Order picker (6BPU15)
  • R = Reach truck (9BRU23)
  • S = Stacker (8BWS13)

Manufacturing Location or Chassis Size Indicator

Toyota forklift model numbers show the manufacturing location and chase size. This is denoted in the 5th (sometimes 6th) character, which is also a letter. It could be:

  • U = Manufactured in the USA (If there’s no “U”, the truck was manufactured outside the USA – for example, a Toyota forklift model 3FG15)
  • T = Manufactured in Italy (8FBMT25)
  • S = Short chassis (the “S” may appear before the “U” in this case, e.g. 8FGCSU20)

Lifting Capacity

The last digits of a forklift model number indicate its lifting capacity, also called the “base” or “chassis” capacity. There may be some exceptions, but generally, the numbers denote base capacity in tons with one decimal place.

So the “25” in the 8FGCU25 model plate indicates that the forklift’s base capacity is 2.5 tons or 5,000 lbs. If the number were 20, it would mean 2.0 tons or 4000 lbs. Tonnage is sometimes rounded because two numbers for tonnage are used. So, it’s essential to your forklift’s data plate for its specific capacity information.

Model Numbers for Toyota Heavy-Duty Forklifts

These model number formats apply to Toyota’s heavy-duty (THD) forklift models, which have lifting capacities of 15,000 lbs and up.

Toyota heavy-duty forklifts follow a different model number sequence than core forklifts do

Compared to the format of Toyota “core” forklift models, these are a little easier to interpret. Let’s use the example THDC3600S-24 for reference.

Model Designation

In Toyota THD forklift models, THD designation comes first, accompanied by a letter that denotes the specific truck designation. There are 4 unique designators.

A selection of Toyota heavy-duty forklift models
There are currently 9 models within the Toyota heavy-duty forklift line
  • THD = Internal combustion (IC) forklift with pneumatic tires
  • THDC = Internal combustion (IC) forklift with cushion tires
  • THDE = Electric forklift with cushion tires
  • THDA = Cushion tire forklift with an adjustable wheelbase

Lifting Capacity

The next part of a THD model number represents the forklift’s lifting capacity in pounds. To know the exact figure, just multiply the number by 10 – or simply add a zero.

Thus, for our THDC3600S-24 example model, 3600 x 10 = 36,000 lbs. lifting capacity.

Special Construction

A Toyota heavy-duty forklift’s model number also denotes any special chassis characteristics. These can be represented by letters or numbers after the capacity number.

For example:

Load Center or Container Handler Type

The last part of the model number is the load center or the container handler type (if the machine is port equipment). This is represented by a dash (-) followed by two numbers, for example, THDC3600S-24.

The final part of the forklift model number for Toyota heavy-duty trucks can refer to either forklift’s load center or container handler capacity
  • 24 = Base capacity is rated at a 24-inch load center.
  • EXX = Empty container handler. The numbers in place of the XX tell you the maximum stacking capability.
  • LXX = Loaded container handlers. The numbers in place of the XX indicate its max stacking height capability.
  • RXX = Reach stacker. The numbers in place of the XX indicate the maximum lift capacity for the third row.

What a Toyota Forklift Model Number Can Tell You

Understanding your forklift’s model number helps you differentiate one forklift from another. This is especially useful if you have a fleet of trucks.

Imagine you’re explaining something about one of your trucks to your dealer, and then you say a statement like, “the big orange one with a propane tank.” This could mean any one of the different trucks.

Understanding Toyota forklift model numbers can help you differentiate between lift trucks in a fleet

So, understanding each character’s meaning in the model number allows you to identify your equipment with its name and not a generic description.

Toyota model numbers are a combination of numbers and letters, each having a meaning or denoting useful equipment details. These include:

  • Model series
  • Fuel type
  • Tire type
  • Lift capacity

For example, understanding each character in the Toyota forklift model 8FGCU25 means you know that it’s:

  • An 8-series forklift (which is newer than 7-series)
  • It’s a Forklift
  • It’s fueled by either Gasoline, LPG, or both
  • It has Cushion tires installed
  • It was made in the USA
  • It has a base lifting capacity of 2.5 tons (about 5,000 lbs.)

Toyota Forklift Model Series vs. Age

Generally, if two Toyota forklifts are the same type, then the series number on the model number will tell you which is older.

For example, a 7FGCU25 is the same type of forklift as an 8FGCU25 (e.g. both are 5,000 lb. capacity gas-powered, cushion-tire forklifts). And since model numbers are sequential, a higher number typically translates to a newer model. Therefore, we can say that the 7FGCU25 is older than the 8FGCU25 because 8 is after 7.

But this series-to-age conversion only applies to different forklift models. This is because age and series depend on when Toyota developed a new series for that particular forklift or equipment model.

Series doesn’t directly correlate to age for Toyota forklifts — thus, a 7-series can be newer than an 8-series in some cases

For example, in the case of a 7-series 3-wheel electric forklift (7FBEU15) and an 8-series 5,000 lb. cushion forklift (8FGCU25), the 7-series could be newer than the 8-series. Why? Because these are two completely different types of forklifts, and each type of forklift can have a different series.

This is why it’s essential to verify your Toyota forklift’s age through your closest authorized Toyota forklift dealership.

A Word on Forklift Capacities

For Toyota forklifts up to 17,500 lb. capacity, the capacity given in the model number is in kilograms (not pounds), and only the first two digits are given.

For example, in a model 8FGCU25 forklift, the “25” denotes 2,500 kg. This is equal to about 5,000 lbs.

To convert from kilograms to pounds, multiply the last two digits by 2.2.

You can also reference the chart below, which gives you the different conversion for kilograms-to-pounds:
