Before Operating
Before operating, check the fuel and oil level, and
remove debris from the traction unit. Also, ensure
that the area is clear of people and debris. You should
also know and have marked the locations of all utility
lines.
Adding Fuel
POTENTIAL HAZARD
•
When fueling, under certain circumstances,
a static charge can develop, igniting the
gasoline.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
•
A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn
you, others, and cause property damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
•
Always place gasoline containers on the
ground away from your vehicle before
filling.
•
Do not fill gasoline containers inside a
vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed because
interior carpets or plastic truck bed liners
may insulate the container and slow the
loss of any static charge.
•
When practical, remove gas–powered
equipment from the truck or trailer and
refuel the equipment with its wheels on the
ground.
•
If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment on a truck or trailer from a
portable container, rather than from a
gasoline dispenser nozzle.
•
If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used,
keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of
the fuel tank or container opening at all
times until fueling is complete.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
•
In certain conditions gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
•
A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn
you, others, and cause property damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
•
Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area,
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any
gasoline that spills.
•
Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the level
is 1/4” to 1/2” (6 mm to 13 mm) below the
bottom of the filler neck. This empty space
in the tank allows gasoline to expand.
•
Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark.
•
Store gasoline in an approved container
and keep it out of the reach of children.
Never buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline.
Use unleaded gasoline (85 pump octane minimum).
Leaded, regular gasoline may be used if unleaded is
not available.
IMPORTANT: Do not use methanol, gasoline
containing methanol, or gasohol containing
more than 10% ethanol because the fuel
system could be damaged. Do not mix oil with
gasoline.
Using Stabilizer/Conditioner
Use a fuel stabilizer/conditioner in the traction unit to
provide the following benefits:
•
Keeps gasoline fresh during storage of 90 days
or less. For longer storage it is recommended
that the fuel tank be drained.
