WARNING
Always stop the engine before refuelling. Open the cap slowly. If you notice
internal pressure (whistling sound heard when removing the fuel tank cap) the
dumper must be inspected and/or repaired before further operation. Fuel is
flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Never use a flame to check
fuel levels.
Never smoke, light a flame or sparks in the vicinity of the fuel tank. Always work
in well ventilated areas. Never fill up the fuel tank before placing the vehicle
in a hot area. When temperature increases, fuel expands. If the fuel tank is
completely full it may overflow. Always clean any fuel or oil spillage from the
vehicle.
