We have a propane powered fork lift at work for going things like loading/unloading pallets of cellulose and loading/unloading blowers from trucks. Today they unloaded a shipment of cellulose. It's over 1,000 bags. The new CO monitoring system is tied in with the fire alarm. Well the alarm started going off. The fire dept. came, evacuated every one and tested blood for CO poisoning. Then they wouldn't let anyone in for hours while they aired out the shop. I guess we had been slowly killing ourselves every time we used that thing. It's ironic that I experienced this incident right when this thread was ramping up and I'm developing all kinds of ideas about converting everything to run on propane.
