Safe use of Kerosene.
These fuels give off a flammable vapour when heated
moderately. Vapour ignites easily, burns intensely and
may cause explosion. The vapour can follow along at
ground level for considerable distances from open
containers and spillages collecting as an explosive
mixture in drains, cellars, etc.
Fuels remove natural oils and fats from the skin and
this may cause irritation and cracking of skin. Barrier
cream containing lanolin is highly recommended
together with good personal hygiene and where
necessary appropriate personal protection
equipment. (P.P.E.)
Gas oil may also cause irreversible damage to health
on prolonged or repeated skin contact.
Always store fuels in a properly constructed and
labelled tank. Always handle fuel in open air or well
ventilated space away from sources of ignition and
refrain from smoking.
Always drain fuel using a proper fuel retriever, funnel
or mechanical siphon. Never apply heat to a fuel tank,
container or pipework. Never siphon fuel through
tube by mouth. If accidentally swallowed contact
doctor immediately and do
NOT
induce vomiting.
Avoid inhaling fuel vapour as this can cause light
headedness and seriously impair judgement.
Under the Consumer Protection Act 1987 and
Section 6 of the Health and Safety Act 1974, we are
required to provide information on substances
hazardous to health.
