DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
♦
In certain conditions gasoline is extremely flammable
and highly explosive.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
♦
A static charge can ignite gasoline vapors. A fire or
explosion from gasoline can burn you, others, and
cause property damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
♦
Purchase and store gasoline only in an approved
container.
♦
Always place gasoline containers on the ground away
from your vehicle before filling.
♦
Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle or on a
truck or trailer bed because interior carpets or plastic
truck bed liners may insulate the container and slow
the loss of any static charge.
♦
When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from
the truck or trailer and refuel the equipment with its
wheels on the ground.
♦
If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a
truck or trailer from a portable container, rather than
from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
♦
If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used, keep the
nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or
container opening at all times until fueling is complete.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
♦
Gasoline vapor can collect inside enclosed trailers and
may be ignited by electrical sparks or hot
engine/exhaust components.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
♦
Explosion and fire may occur, resulting in property
damage, personal injury and/or death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
♦
Provide adequate ventilation of any enclosed trailer to
prevent build up of gasoline vapors, especially at floor
level.
♦
Never refuel equipment inside an enclosed trailer.
♦
Be sure all fuel tanks and gasoline storage containers
have proper caps installed to prevent spillage and
minimize vapor escaping into the trailer.
♦
Do not place any equipment that is leaking gasoline in
an enclosed trailer.
