Fueling Hazards
Most fuels are highly flammable. Observe the following precautionary practices to reduce the
possibility of a serious accident:
•
Always refuel the unit in an open, well ventilated area away from sparks or open flames.
Diesel Engines:
• Shut the engine off before attempting to fuel the machine. Never refuel a unit while
it is running.
• Allow engine to cool before re-fueling
• Always use a funnel or pour spout when filling the tanks.
• Under certain circumstances a static charge can develop and ignite the fuel. Make
sure that you are standing on the ground when filling the fuel tanks.
• If you are filling the fuel tanks from a service vehicle, make sure to connect the
service vehicles ground cable to the machine before beginning the fueling process.
Keep the fuel nozzle in constant contact with the rim of the machines fuel tank.
• When filling a portable gas container, always place it on the ground. Never fill a
portable fuel container while it is inside a vehicle, truck, pick-up bed, or any
surface.

when it is positioned on the ground and keep the fuel container nozzle in contact
with the tank opening during filling.
• Make sure to move the unit from the transport truck or trailer and only refuel the
unit on the ground, using an approved container.
• Keep sparks and flames away from fuel.
• Do not smoke while refueling or when handling the fuel container.
