DANGER
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
DO NOT smoke while refueling, and stay away from an open
flame or where gasoline fumes may be ignited by spark.
Refuel only in a well ventilated area, or refuel outdoors.
Store gasoline in an approved container and keep it out of the
reach of children.
Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap of
the fuel tank or add fuel when engine is running or when the
engine is hot.
Never fill the fuel tank so that the gasoline level rises above a
level that is 1/2” below the bottom of the filler neck to allow for
gasoline expansion and prevent fuel spillage.
If fuel is spilled, DO NOT attempt to start the engine. Move
away from the area of the spill and avoid creating any source
of ignition until fuel vapors have dissipated.
DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
In certain conditions gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
A static charge can ignite gasoline vapors. A fire or explosion
from gasoline can burn you, others, and cause property
damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Purchase and store gasoline only in an approved container.
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.
