- Do not store fuel in closed places. The fuel vapours will alter the atmosphere of
the enclosure and may cause a fire or explosion.
- Use suitable impermeable clothing, safety glasses and gloves when handling
fuel. When refuelling from a tank, bucket or barrel using a siphon, the following
precautions should be taken.
- If refuelling is by gravity, from a raised tank, open the fuel output valve of the tank
slowly.
- If the tank or barrel does not have an output valve use a suitable vacuum pump.
WARNING
Never suck the fuel into the pipe by mouth to start the siphoning. Fuel and its
vapours are highly toxic.
- In the event of fuel spillage, please inform the supervisor, mark the area suitably
and cover the spillage with absorbent material.
- Take suitable measures to avoid risk until the remains of the fuel have been
completely removed.
Refuelling
WARNING
Smoking, naked flames or sparks are not permitted in the refuelling area. Fuel
vapours can be explosive.
- Refuel in a well-ventilated area.
- Position the forklift as close as possible to the fuel pump so that the filler hose
reaches the opening of the tank comfortably.
- Apply the parking brake, switch off the engine and lights, including the rotating
beacon.
NOTE
If the fuel pump is equipped with a vehicle earth connection, connect this to a
non-isolated metal component of the forklift.
- Clean the fuel cap and surrounding area with a cloth if they have been dirtied. Do
not allow dust, water, or any other substance to enter the tank.
- Open the fuel cap using the key and turning to the left.
- Fill the tank without exceeding the volume specified for the forklift. Take care not
to spill fuel outside the tank. If you do, clean immediately and dry the surface well.
- Close the tank using the key and remove it from the cap. Check that the cap is
correctly closed.
