Handling Fuel
Diesel fuel is flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
-
NEVER refuel with the engine running.
-
Always refuel outdoors or in a well ventilated area.
-
Fill the fuel tank with diesel fuel ONLY. Filling the fuel tank with gasoline may result in a fire and will damage the engine.
-
Remove flammable material containers from the box before filling them with fuel.
-
Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in or near the area where refueling is performed or where fuel is stored.
-
Wipe up all spills immediately.
-
Keep sparks, open flames or any other form of ignition (match, cigarette, static electricity source) well away when refueling.
-
NEVER remove the fuel cap while the engine is running.
-
NEVER overfill the fuel tank. Do not fill the tank neck.
-
If fuel spills on your skin or clothing, immediately wash it off with soap and water and change clothing.
