3.3 Handling of petrol and oil
DANGER!
Risk of explosion and fire
An escaping petrol/air mixture can cause
an explosive atmosphere. Deflagration,
explosion and fire can lead to serious
and even fatal injuries if fuel is not han-
dled properly.
■
Do not smoke when dealing with
petrol.
■
Only handle petrol out of doors and
never in enclosed spaces.
■
It is essential to heed the code of
conduct stated below.
■
Only transport and store petrol and oil in con-
tainers approved for that purpose. Ensure
that children have no access to stored petrol
and oil.
■
In order to avoid ground contamination (envi-
ronmental protection) when filling, ensure
that no petrol or oil enters the soil. Use a fun-
nel for filling.
■
Never fill the appliance in enclosed spaces.
Petrol vapours may gather at ground level,
and thereby result in a deflagration or even
an explosion.
■
Immediately wipe any spilled petrol off the
appliance and the ground. Allow textiles used
to wipe off petrol to dry in a well ventilated
place before disposing of them. Otherwise,
sudden self-ignition may occur.
■
If petrol has been spilled, petrol vapours oc-
cur. For this reason, do not start the appli-
ance at the same location but at least 3 m
away.
■
Avoid skin contact with mineral oil products.
Do not inhale petrol vapours. When filling, al-
ways wear protective gloves. Change and
clean protective clothing regularly.
■
Ensure that your clothing does not come into
contact with petrol. If petrol has got onto your
clothing, change it immediately.
■
Never fill the appliance while the engine is
running or hot.
