Fuel and vapors are extremely flammable and
explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
WHEN ADDING OR DRAINING FUEL
•
Observe all safety regulations for the safe handling of fuel.
Handle fuel in safety containers. If the container does not have a
spout, use a funnel.
•
Do not overfill the fuel tank, leave room for the fuel to expand.
•
Do not refill fuel tank while the engine is running. Before refueling
the generator, turn it off and let it cool down. Gasoline spilled on
hot engine parts could ignite.
•
Fill the tank only on an area of bare ground. While fueling the
tank, keep heat, sparks and open flame away. Carefully clean up
any spilled fuel before starting engine.
•
Always fill fuel tank in an area with plenty of ventilation to avoid
inhaling dangerous fumes.
•
NEVER store fuel for your generator in the home. Gasoline,
propane, kerosene, and other flammable liquids should be stored
outside of living areas in properly-labeled, non-glass safety con-
tainers. Do not store them near a fuel-burning appliance, such
as a natural gas water heater in a garage. If the fuel is spilled or
the container is not sealed properly, invisible vapors from the fuel
can travel along the ground and can be ignited by the appliance's
pilot light or by arcing from electric switches in the appliance.
