Quote: I was always told to hang a grounding strap to the ground and let it drag as you drive to disapate the electric to the ground.
Laugh if you like, a static strap along with white synthetic tires are OSHA requirements for forklifts in flammable environments. You'll know when it needs a new one too, you'll get a spark that lites you up worse than your polyester socks on a wool carpet.
