Avoid Static Electricity Risk When Refueling
The removal of sulfur and other compounds in Ultra-Low
Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel decreases its conductivity and
increases its ability to store a static charge.
Refineries may have treated the fuel with a static
dissipating additive. However, there are many factors that
can reduce the effectiveness of the additive over time.
Static charges can build up in ULSD fuel while it is flowing
through fuel delivery systems. Static electricity discharge
when combustible vapors are present could result in a
fire or explosion.
Therefore, it is important to ensure that the entire system
used to refuel your machine (fuel supply tank, transfer
pump, transfer hose, nozzle, and others) is properly
grounded and bonded. Consult with your fuel or fuel
system supplier to ensure that the delivery system is in
compliance with fueling standards for proper grounding
and bonding practices.

Handle Fuel Safely—Avoid Fires
Handle fuel with care: it is highly flammable. Do not refuel
the machine while smoking or when near open flame or
sparks.
Always stop engine before refueling machine. Fill fuel
tank outdoors.
Prevent fires by keeping machine clean of accumulated
trash, grease, and debris. Always clean up spilled fuel.
Use only an approved fuel container for transporting
flammable liquids.
Never fill fuel container in pickup truck with plastic bed
liner. Always place fuel container on ground before
refueling. Touch fuel container with fuel dispenser nozzle
before removing can lid. Keep fuel dispenser nozzle in
contact with fuel container inlet when filling.

Do not store fuel container where there is an open flame,
spark, or pilot light such as within a water heater or other
appliance.
