Lift Truck Tank Safety
The propane powered lift truck is amongst the most popular kinds of lift trucks. These vehicle are powered by propane, that come with certain considerations that must be accounted for. It is essential that PPE or also referred to as Personal Protective Equipment is worn all the time in order to be safe.

PPE or Personal Protective Equipment
Propane is a really cold gas. It is very cold to touch because skin contact can lead to serious burns. When you are re-fueling or exchanging the propane tank, be certain to put on thick gloves and goggles or a full face shield. Personal Protective Equipment or PPE is a requirement to be utilized on site in order to keep the driver as safe as possible. PPE or Personal Protective Equipment is a standard workplace requirement for the majority of companies using this equipment and if the operator does not have the correct things on, such as steel-toe boots, a hardhat, goggles and that than he or she will be banned from operating the machine.

Inspect the Valve
Prior to connecting the fuel line in the process of exchanging the tank, make sure that the new tanks valve is turned off. This is really important because when you are inserting the fuel line into an open valve, you will release the propane gas. This situation can create a potentially dangerous condition.

Fire Extinguisher
Another important safety procedure to have implemented is to have a fire extinguisher nearby when fuel is being added or when the tank is being changed. Most companies have fire extinguishers located next to the refueling post. It is better to have one close by and not require it, than to need one and not have one nearby. The majority of safety regulations require this is set up on location too.

Secure the Tank
The majority of propane tanks are strapped securely into place by some type of strap or restraining device. Be certain that this device is correctly working and utilized correctly so that you can prevent the tank from falling or shifting, because this could also lead to a dangerous condition.
