INTRODUCTION
Flammable liquids
When handling flammable liquids:
• Do not smoke.
• Keep away from unshielded light sources and open
flames.
Fuels often have a low flash point and are readily ignited.
Never attempt to extinguish burning liquids with water.
Use:
• Dry powder
• Carbon dioxide
• Foam
Water used for extinguishing purposes would vaporize in-
stantaneously on contact with burning substances and
spread burning oil, for example, over a wide area. Water
generates short circuits in the electrical system, possibly
producing new hazards.

Stay away from open flames during refilling of hydraulic
oil or fuel.
Fuel or oil spills can cause slipping hazards; thoroughly
contain and clean affected areas.
Always tighten the safety plugs of fuel tank and hydraulic
oil tank firmly.
Never use fuel to clean machine parts that will be exposed
to dirt or debris.
Use a non-flammable product for cleaning parts.
Always perform fuel or oil refilling in well aired and venti-
lated areas.

During refuelling hold the pistol firmly and always keep it
in contact with the filler neck until the end of the refuelling,
to avoid arcing due to static electricity.
Do not overfill the tank but leave a space for fuel expan-
sion.
Never refuel when the engine is running.
Take all the necessary safety measures when welding,
grinding or when working near an exposed flame.
