Operator Safety
•
Never fi ll containers inside a vehicle or on a truck
or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place
containers on the ground away from your vehicle
before fueling.
•
Remove fuel-powered equipment from the truck
or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not
possible, then refuel such equipment with a por-
table container, rather than from a fuel dispenser
nozzle.
•
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until the
fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock
open device.
•
Never overfi ll fuel tank. Replace fuel tank cap
and tighten securely.
•
Replace all fuel container caps securely after
use.
•
For gasoline engines, do not use gas with metha-
nol. Methanol is harmful to your health and to the
environment.
Handling Waste Product and Chemicals
•
Waste products, such as, used oil, fuel, coolant,
brake fl uid, and batteries, can harm the environ-
ment and people:
•
DO NOT use beverage containers for waste fl uids
- someone may drink from them.
•
Contact your local Recycling Center or autho-
rized dealer to learn how to recycle or get rid of
waste products.
•
Safety Data Sheets (SDS) provides specifi c de-
tails on chemical products: physical and health
hazards, safety procedures, and emergency re-
sponse techniques. The seller of the chemical
products used with your machine is responsible
for providing the SDS for that product.
