Safe Handling of Gasoline
•
To avoid personal injury or property
damage, use extreme care in handling
gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive.
•
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes,
and other sources of ignition.
•
Use only approved gasoline container.
•
Never remove gas cap or add fuel with
the engine running. Allow engine to cool
at least two (2) minutes before refueling.
•
Never fuel the machine indoors.
•
Never store the machine or fuel
container where there is an open flame,
spark, or pilot light such as on a water
heater or other appliances.
•
Before you begin refueling, minimize the
risk of static electricity by touching a
metal surface.
•
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or
on a truck or trailer bed with plastic liner.
Always place containers on the ground
away from your vehicle when filling.
•
Remove gas-powered equipment from
the truck or tailer and refuel it on the
ground. If this is not possible, then refuel
such equipment with a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
•
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of
the fuel tank or container opening at all
times until fueling is complete. Do not
use a nozzle lock-open device.
•
If fuel is spilled on clothing, change
clothing immediately.
•
Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap
and tighten securely.
•
Do not start the engine near spilled fuel.
•
Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
•
I
f leaks arise in the fuel system, the
engine must not be started until the
problem has been resolved.
