General Precautions
Avoid fire and explosion hazards
Keep flames away from fuel, hydraulic fluid,
oil, grease and antifreeze. Fuel is particularly
flammable and dangerous.
When handling these combustible
materials, keep lit cigarettes, matches,
lighters and other flames or sources of
flames away.
Do not smoke or permit open flames while
fueling or near fueling operations.
Never remove the fuel cap or refuel with
the engine running or hot. Never allow fuel
to spill on hot machine components.
Clean up spilled fuel, oil or other flammable
fluids immediately.
Check for fuel, oil or hydraulic fluid leaks.
Stop all leaks and clean the machine
before operating.
Do not cut or weld on pipes or tubes that
contain flammable fluids. Clean thoroughly
with nonflammable solvent before cutting
or welding.
Remove all trash or debris from the
machine. Make sure that oily rags or other
flammable material are not stored on the
machine.
Handle all solvents and dry chemicals
according to procedures identified on
manufacturers’ containers. Work in a well-
ventilated area.
Never use fuel for cleaning purposes.
Always use a nonflammable solvent.
Store all flammable fluids and materials in
a safe and well-ventilated place.
