Fuel Safety

 

DANGER

GASOLINE AND GASOLINE VAPORS ARE HIGHLY 
FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

Gasoline and gasoline vapors:

 

Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive.

 

Gasoline can cause a fire or explosion if ignited.

 

Gasoline is a liquid fuel but it’s vapors can ignite.

 

Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up 
immediately if spilled on skin or clothes.

 

Gasoline has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential 
leaks quickly.

 

Gasoline expands or contracts with ambient temperatures. 
Never fill the gasoline tank to full capacity, as gasoline needs 
room to expand when temperatures rise.

 

In the case of any petroleum gasoline fire, flames should never 
be extinguished unless the fuel supply valve can be turned 
OFF. By not doing so, if a fire is extinguished and the supply 
of fuel is not turned OFF, an explosion hazard could be created.

When adding or removing gasoline:

DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.

Turn the generator off and let cool for at least two minutes before 
removing the gasoline cap. Always loosen the cap slowly to relieve 
pressure in the tank.

Only fill or drain gasoline outdoors in a well-ventilated area.

DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the generator at the gas 
station. Always use an approved container to transfer the fuel to 
the generator.

DO NOT overfill the gasoline tank.

Always keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, 
heat and other sources of ignition.

When starting the generator:

DO NOT attempt to start a damaged generator. 

Always check that the gasoline cap, air filter, spark plug, fuel lines 
and exhaust system are properly in place.

Always allow spilled gasoline to evaporate fully before attempting 
to start the engine.

Always be certain that the generator is resting firmly on level 
ground.

When operating the generator:

DO NOT move or tip the generator during operation.

When transporting or servicing the generator:

Always check that the fuel valve is in the OFF position and the 
gasoline tank is empty.

Disconnect the spark plug wire.

When storing the generator:

Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other 
sources of ignition.

Do not store generator or gasoline near furnaces, water heaters, 
or any other appliances that produce heat or have automatic 
ignitions.

 

DANGER

NEVER place a gasoline container, gasoline tank, LPG cylinder 
or any combustible material in the path of the exhaust stream 
during operation of the engine.

 

WARNING

Never use a gasoline container, gasoline tank, or any other fuel 
item that is broken, cut, torn or damaged.
