DANGER
LPG fuel is extremely flammable and vapors
are explosive.

you, others, and cause property damage.
• Never smoke around tank(s) and stay
away from an open flame or where fumes
may be ignited by a spark.

may occur and collect.
• LPG is heavier than air and may
accumulate in low lying areas, such as
ditches, drains, or pits.

and qualified personnel ONLY.
• Never tamper with or repair the tank(s);
contact trained and qualified personnel.
• Do Not change the tank(s) when the

all LPG vapors from the system, by
closing the fuel valve(s) on ALL tanks and
allowing the engine to run until it stops.

or open flames.
• Do Not operate without entire exhaust
system in place and in proper working
condition.
