Handle Fuel Safely
WARNING
• Never remove the fuel cap from the fuel
tank or add fuel when the engine is
running or while the engine is hot.
• Do not smoke when handling fuel. Never
fill or drain the fuel tank indoors.
• Do not spill fuel. Clean spilled fuel
immediately.
• Never handle or store fuel containers
near an open flame or any device that
may create sparks and ignite the fuel or
fuel vapors.
• Be sure to reinstall and tighten fuel cap
securely.
• Use an approved container; the spout
must fit inside the fuel filler neck. Avoid
using cans and funnels to transfer fuel.
• Store fuel according to local, state, or federal
ordinances and recommendations from your fuel
supplier.
• Never overfill or allow the tank to become empty.
• Use clean, fresh fuel.
• Do not fill above the fuel filler neck.
Store Volatile and Hazardous Materials
Safely
Store volatile materials (for example, gasoline, diesel
fuel, oil, etc.) in approved containers that are clearly
marked. Containers should be stored in an approved
safety cabinet away from possible sources of ignition.
Storage areas and cabinets should be well-ventilated to
prevent the possible build-up of fumes.
Handle Chemical Products Safely
WARNING
Exposure to chemical products could result in
serious injury. Handle chemical products with
care.
Refer to the chemical manufacturer’s Material
Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for information
regarding health hazards, safe handling, and
emergency response procedures.
Routine service often requires the use of various
chemical products, including lubricants and cleaning
solutions. Many of these chemicals are flammable and
can pose health risks if not handled properly.
• Never mix chemicals. Mixing chemicals can
produce toxic or explosive results.
• Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for
safe usage and handling of the product.
• Various materials may pose a health hazard if
used incorrectly. An MSDS contains important
information regarding proper handling and health
hazards, as well as emergency response
procedures. Contact the chemical manufacturer to
obtain an MSDS for the chemical product.
