DANGER: Observe usual fuel handling precautions:
Do not smoke while refueling.
Do not fill tank with engine running or while engine is hot. Clean up any gasoline spills.
Allow engine to cool before storing machine inside a building.
Keep fuel away from open flame or spark and store machine away from open flame or spark if there is
fuel in the tank.
Use extra caution when handling gasoline and other fuels. They are flammable and vapors are
explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others and can damage property.
Refuel outdoors preferably, or in well ventilated areas.
Never attempt to start engine when there is a strong odor of gasoline fumes present. Locate and
correct cause.
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.
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 as interior carpets or plastic truck
bed liners may insulate the container and slow the loss of any static charge.
When practical, remove equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel the equipment with its wheels on
the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel the equipment on the truck or trailer using a portable
container and not 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.
