• Diesel fuel is flammable and explosive
under certain conditions.
• When you remove any fuel system
component to perform maintenance
(such as changing the fuel filter) place
an approved container under the
opening to catch the fuel.
• NEVER use a shop rag to catch the
fuel. Vapors from the rag are
flammable and explosive.
• Wipe up any spills immediately.
