This forklift burns propane (LPG) which will produce exhaust gases that are harmful to humans. They include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons. The amounts of each of these gases will vary, depending on a number of related factors. With the correct fuel, proper tuning of the system by technicians and adequate ventilation, this truck can produce emissions that are considered safe for indoor use. Of the four gases, carbon monoxide poses the greatest threat. Carbon monoxide symptoms may vary with individuals, depending on breathing rate, the amount of work or exercise being performed at the time of exposure, and the physical state of the subject. In case of working in an enclosed area, the area should be well ventilated. We recommend the forklift not be operated in a small enclosed area for long periods. To maintain the emission levels to a normal level, customers are requested to follow the maintenance schedule. A truck using diesel fuel is not recommended indoor use.
