Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Symptoms
Train your employees to know the warning signs of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Mild carbon monoxide poisoning may cause any of the following:
Headache, drowsiness, faintness, poor coordination, nausea, and vomiting.
Turn the engine off and immediately get to fresh air if you have any of these symptoms.
Do not run the machine until it is given an emissions test and repairs made by an authorized distributor.
• Local emissions testing is available at a fork-lift service department.
Moderate or severe carbon monoxide poisoning causes confusion, unconsciousness, chest pain, shortness of breath, and
coma. Thus, most victims are not able to move themselves and must be rescued. Severe poisoning is often fatal.
Carbon monoxide is dangerous because a person may not recognize drowsiness as a symptom of poisoning. Consequently,
someone with mild poisoning can go to sleep and continue to breathe the carbon monoxide until severe poisoning or death
occurs. Some people with long-standing, mild carbon monoxide poisoning caused by furnaces or
heaters may mistake their symptoms for other conditions, such as the fl u or other viral infections.
