Safety Information
Fuelling / De-Fuelling
•
ALWAYS fuel and de-fuel in a well ventilated area outside of buildings. Use a funnel to add fuel, only outdoors.
Do not smoke during this and each time fuel is handled.
•
Add fuel before igniting the engine, never remove the fuel tank cap or add fuel whilst the engine is running or
when it is hot.
•
When de-fuelling ALWAYS use a proper fuel retriever.
•
Never overfill the fuel tank. Engine heat can cause fuel to expand, never fill the tank to more than 1/2” below
the bottom of the filler neck. This will provide space for fuel expansion.
•
When refilling or draining the fuel tank, use an approved fuel storage container while in a clean, well-ventilated
outdoor area. While adding fuel or operating the unit, do not smoke, and stay away from sparks, open flames,
or other sources of ignition near the area of operation.
•
Always stop the engine and allow it to cool before filling the fuel tank. Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or
add fuel while the engine is running or when the engine is hot.
•
Loosen the fuel tank cap slowly to relieve any pressure in the tank.
•
ALWAYS keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and fuel.
•
After fueling, ensure to tighten the cap securely.
•
Never use the lock-function when filling with fuel.
Storage
•
Store fuel in containers specifically designed and approved for fuel storage.
•
Store fuel in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely away from sparks, open flames, or other sources of ignition.
•
Never store fuel or a machine with fuel in the tank inside a building where fumes may reach a spark, open
flame, or any other source of ignition (such as a water heater, furnace, or clothes dryer). Allow the engine to
cool before storing in any enclosure.
•
Replace all fuel tank and container caps securely and wipe up spilled fuel. Never operate the unit without the
fuel cap securely in place.
