Posted By John Taylor I am about to embark on a survey of which FL is the healthiest in the work place ie Diesel v Gas v Electric I know there are some obvious benefits but has anyone done this or know of a good resource site

Posted By Scott Fisher John, If you are using it internally then you only really have one option, electric. If however you are using it outside then you need to way up the benefits i.e pollution, noise, cost of fuel and maintenance. We recently selected a gas vehicle over diesel as we agreed it was more enviromentally friendly and the running costs were less.

Posted By John Murgatroyd Adequate ventilation is an emotive subject. One person can happily work alongside a diesel truck indoors, while another will feel ill in seconds. Diesel trucks should only be used indoors for short periods, in WELL ventilated buildings, and if fitted with particulate exhaust filters. LPG trucks are not much better. Never forgetting that the exhaust from diesel engines contains some of the most potent carcinogens known to man. The exhaust from an LPG fuelled liftruck contains a smaller AMOUNT of particulates BUT they are also smaller particles, so get inhaled deeper into the lungs http://www.themanufactur...lshandling/article3.html
