TQP-HS for Fuel Dispensers Component Technical Manual
1.5.3 HAZARDS
Prior to starting work, the dispenser must be isolated (i.e. entirely disconnected
from the mains supply) and the mains supply switch locked in the OFF position.
The submerged pump (if applicable) and control signals from the dispenser must
also be isolated. This is done to provide safety for the technician. As a further
precaution, switch off the mains supply in the service station shop and place a
clear notice on the switch to avoid it being turned on again inadvertently.
WARNING : THE CONNECTION AND DISCONNECTION OF
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MAY ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY
QUALIFIED PE ONNEL AUTHORISED FOR SUCH ACTIVITIES.
WORK IN DANGEROUS AREAS MUST BE MADE SAFE BY
OBSERVING ALL THE NATIONAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS IN
FORCE.
It is not permitted to put a fuel dispenser into operation before an authorised
official has inspected it and released it. This depends upon the national regulations
in force.
Dismantled packaging and cladding must be stored in such a way as to avoid
damage to components or injuries to persons. Covers that can be opened, such
as the calculator housing, should be handled with care. Ensure that the retaining
catch is placed in the correct position to prevent the cover falling onto the head
of the service engineer or other persons in the area.
At unattended service stations, every end-user should be able to read the User
Instructions. They should be visible on a notice board or integrated into the DIT
and should be sufficiently well lit so that they can be read at night.
At unattended service stations break away couplings must always be used to
reduce the danger caused by a motorist driving off with the nozzle still in the
tank.
