Aug. 13-16, 2012. Propane and air filters..

This past week I did a service on a propane forklift. As part of the service, I learned you have to drain the propane regulator. I was told that impurities build up in the regulator and they need to be drained. I also learned that if you don't drain it, it can impede the engine from starting. I learned you only want to drain it when it is warm due to it being solid at cold temperatures. I also found some pretty bad air filters last week that are the worst I've seen. Very interesting week, but a great experience of learning.
