DANGER
Explosion/Fire/Burn Hazard.
Gasoline is extremely ammable. Vapors
are explosive. Keep at least 50 feet (15 m)
away from heat, sparks, open ame, smok-
ing materials, static electricity, and all other
sources of ignition when fueling unit.
Gasoline vapor is heavier than air, and can
travel along the ground to nearby sources
of ignition such as electrical motors, pilot
lights, and hot or running engines. Vapors
ignited by an ignition source can ash back
to the fuel container, resulting in an explo-
sion, re, serious or fatal injuries, and ex-
tensive property damage.
Follow these important safety precautions to minimize risk of explosion or re:
• ALWAYS use an approved, "no-spill" type fuel
container with tight-tting caps.
• ALWAYS follow posted safety instructions for
lling fuel containers at lling stations.
• ALWAYS place container to be lled with
gasoline on the ground to prevent static build-
up during lling.
• ALWAYS keep the metal lling pump nozzle in
contact with the fuel container while dispensing
fuel to prevent buildup and discharge of static
electricity.
• NEVER ll fuel container on SUV/truck bed or
in trunk of car.
• NEVER smoke near fuel.
• NEVER allow ames or sparks near fuel.
• ALWAYS loosen fuel caps slowly to allow
pressure in tanks and containers to escape
• ALWAYS use extreme care when mixing, storing, or handling fuel.
• NEVER remove tank cap or refuel a unit while the engine is hot or running
• NEVER ll fuel tanks indoors - ALWAYS ll fuel tanks outdoors over open
ground.
• DO NOT overll fuel tank - ALWAYS allow room in tank for expansion.
Fill tank no more than 95 percent full, or to “Safe Fill Line” if marked on
container.
