Underground Gas Pipes
Before you start using the machine, check with your
local gas company if there are any buried gas pipes on
the site.
If there are buried gas pipes we recommend that you
ask the gas company for any specific advice regarding
the way you should work on the site.
Some modern gas pipes cannot be detected by metal
detectors, so it is essential that an accurate map of
buried gas pipes is obtained before any excavation
work commences.
Hand dig trial holes to obtain precise pipe locations.
Any cast iron pipes found should be assumed to be
gas pipes until contrary evidence is obtained.
Older gas pipes can be damaged by heavy vehicles
driving over the ground above them.
Leaking gas is highly explosive.
If a gas leak is suspected, contact the local gas
company immediately and warn all personnel on the
site. Ban smoking, ensure that all naked lights are
extinguished and switch off any engines which may be
running.
You are strongly advised to make sure that the safety
arrangements on site comply with the local laws and
regulations concerning work near buried gas pipes.
