FUEL SAFETY RULES
Fuel is highly flammable and its vapors can
explode. ONLY use approved fuel containers.
• NO Smoking!
• NO Sparks!
• NO Flames!
• Allow engine to cool before filling fuel
tank.
Check fuel supply before starting engine.
DO NOT fill gasoline tank indoors, when
engine is running, or while engine is still hot.
Allow engine to cool several minutes before
removing fuel cap.
Replace gasoline tank cap securely and clean
up any spilled fuel before starting engine.
Never fill 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 filling.
When practical, remove gas-powered
equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it
on the ground. If this is not possible, then
refuel such equipment on a trailer with a
portable container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the
fuel tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-
open device.
If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing
immediately.
