Red diesel, also known as red oil or dyed diesel, is diesel used for specific purposes in some countries, which is dyed red to distinguish it from diesel used in road vehicles. This fuel is commonly used in agricultural, construction and industrial equipment and certain heating systems. In the UK and some other countries, it is illegal to use red diesel in unauthorized road vehicles because it is intended to evade tax and environmental regulations.
For forklifts, they are usually designed to use standard diesel, which is colorless or light yellow and meets road vehicle emission standards. If a forklift uses red diesel, it may negatively affect its performance and violate local laws. Red diesel may contain different additives or ingredients that may not be suitable for the forklift's engine, which may result in reduced combustion efficiency, reduced engine performance, increased maintenance costs, and may even damage the engine.
In addition, the use of red diesel may cause excessive emissions from the forklift because this fuel may not contain detergents suitable for road vehicle emission control systems. This not only affects the environmental compliance of the forklift, but may also result in fines or other legal consequences.
Therefore, red diesel should not be used in forklifts unless the forklift is specifically designed to run on red diesel and has been appropriately modified to ensure compliance with emission standards and performance requirements. When using a forklift, the manufacturer's specifications and local laws and regulations should always be followed to ensure the proper operation and compliance of the forklift.
