Important Safety Information
Page 5
No Open Fire
Open flames from matches, lighters, welding torches or other
sources can ignite fuels and their vapors.
No Sparks - No Smoking
Sparks from starting vehicles, starting or using power tools,
burning cigarettes, cigars or pipes can also ignite fuels and their
vapors. Static electricity, including an electrostatic charge on your
body, can cause a spark sufficient to ignite fuel vapors. Every time you
get out of a vehicle, touch the metal of your vehicle, to discharge any
electrostatic charge before you approach the dispenser island.
Working Alone
It is highly recommended that someone who is capable of rendering
first aid be present during servicing. Familiarize yourself with
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) methods, if you work with or
around high voltages. This information is available from the American
Red Cross. Always advise the station personnel about where you will
be working, and caution them not to activate power while you are
working on the equipment. Use the OSHA Lockout/Tagout
procedures. If you are not familiar with this requirement, refer to this
information in the service manual and OSHA documentation.
Working With Electricity Safely
Ensure that you use safe and established practices in working with
electrical devices. Poorly wired devices may cause a fire, explosion or
electrical shock. Ensure that grounding connections are properly
made. Take care that sealing devices and compounds are in place.
Ensure that you do not pinch wires when replacing covers. Follow
OSHA Lockout/Tagout requirements. Station employees and service
contractors need to understand and comply with this program
completely to ensure safety while the equipment is down.
Hazardous Materials
Some materials present inside electronic enclosures may present a
health hazard if not handled correctly. Ensure that you clean hands
after handling equipment. Do not place any equipment in the mouth
In an Emergency
Inform Emergency Personnel
Compile the following information and inform emergency
personnel:
• Location of accident (for example, address, front/back of
building, and so on)
• Nature of accident (for example, possible heart attack, run
over by car, burns, and so on)
• Age of victim (for example, baby, teenager, middle-age,
elderly)
• Whether or not victim has received first aid (for example,
stopped bleeding by pressure, and so on)
• Whether or not a victim has vomited (for example, if
swallowed or inhaled something, and so on)
IMPORTANT
: Oxygen may be needed at scene if gasoline has
been ingested or inhaled. Seek medical advice immediately.
Lockout/Tagout
Lockout/Tagout covers servicing and maintenance of machines
and equipment in which the unexpected energization or start-up
of the machine(s) or equipment or release of stored energy
could cause injury to employees or personnel. Lockout/Tagout
applies to all mechanical, hydraulic, chemical, or other energy,
but does not cover electrical hazards. Subpart S of 29 CFR Part
1910 - Electrical Hazards, 29 CFR Part 1910.333 contains
specific Lockout/Tagout provision for electrical hazards.
In the event of inclement weather, including snow, ice, or flooding
that makes driving conditions dangerous, please avoid servicing
units. Always use available door stops to secure upper doors
against unwanted/unexpected movement, especially during high
winds. If necessary, reschedule service to avoid damage to the
equipment. Weather may change unexpectedly; be aware of local
weather conditions. During service, if conditions develop making
service unsafe, close the unit(s) and proceed to a safe location.
