Operation 

Practices

Gasoline and its vapors are 
extremely flammable and 
explosive. Fire or explosion can 
cause severe burns or death. If 
gasoline is spilled on yourself 
or your clothes, wash your skin 
and change clothes immediately.

•  When adding fuel, turn engine OFF and let engine 

cool at least 2 minutes before removing gas cap.

•  Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well ventilated area.
•  Use only an approved gasoline container.
•  Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or 

trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place contain-
ers on the ground away from your vehicle before 
filling.

•  If possible, remove gas-powered equipment from the 

truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is 
not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer 
with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline 
dispenser nozzle.

•  Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel 

tank or container opening at all times until fueling is 
complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

•  Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill tank to approximately 

2 cm below lowest portion of neck to allow for fuel 
expansion.

•  Keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot 

lights, heat, and other ignition sources.

•  Never fuel equipment indoors because flammable 

vapors will accumulate in the area.

•  Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other 

sources of ignition.

•  Check fuel line, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for 

cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.

•  When starting engine, make sure spark plug, muffler, 

fuel cap and air cleaner are in place.

•  Do not crank engine with spark plug removed.
•  If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting 

engine.

•  When operating equipment, do not tip engine or 

equipment at angle which causes gasoline to spill.

•  Do not choke carburetor to stop engine.
•  When transporting equipment, transport with fuel tank 

EMPTY.

•  When storing gasoline or equipment with fuel in tank, 

store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters or 
other appliances that have pilot light or other ignition 
source because they can ignite gasoline vapors. 

Starting engine creates spark-
ing. Sparking can ignite nearby 
flammable gases. Explosion and 
fire could result.

•  If there is a natural or LP gas leakage in area, do not 

start engine.

•  Do not use pressurized starting fluids because vapors 

are flammable.

Engines give off carbon mon-
oxide, an odorless, colorless, 
poisonous gas. Breathing carbon 
monoxide can cause nausea, 
fainting, or death.

•  Start and run engine outdoors.
•  Do not start or run engine in enclosed area, even if 

doors or windows are open.

Unintentional sparking can result 
in fire or electric shock. Unin-
tentional start-up can result in 
entanglement, traumatic amputa-
tion, or laceration.

•  Before performing adjustments or repairs, disconnect 

spark plug wire and keep it away from spark plug.

•  When testing for spark, use approved spark plug 

tester.

•  Do not check for spark with spark plug removed.

WARNING:

 Gasoline and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive. Fire or 

explosion can cause severe burns or death. If gasoline is spilled on yourself or your 
clothes, wash your skin and change clothes immediately.
