Fuel Safety
DANGER
A
PETROL AND PETROL VAPORS ARE HIGHLY FLAMMABLE
AND EXPLOSIVE.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Petrol and petrol vapors:
– Petrol is highly flammable and explosive.
– Petrol can cause a fire or explosion if ignited.
– Petrol is a liquid fuel but it's vapors can ignite.
– Petrol is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up immediately
if spilled on skin or clothes.
– Petrol has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential
leaks quickly.
– Petrol expands or contracts with ambient temperatures.
Never fill the fuel tank to full capacity, as petrol needs room to
expand when temperatures rise.
– In the case of any petroleum petrol fire, flames should never
be extinguished unless the fuel supply valve can be turned
OFF. By not doing so, if a fire is extinguished and the supply
of fuel is not turned OFF, an explosion hazard could be created.
When adding or removing petrol:
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
Turn the generator off and let cool for at least two minutes before
removing the fuel cap. Always loosen the cap slowly to relieve
pressure in the tank.
Only fill or drain petrol outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
DO NOT pump petrol directly into the generator at the filling
station. Always use an approved container to transfer the fuel to
the generator.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
Always keep petrol away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat and other sources of ignition.
When starting the generator:
DO NOT attempt to start a damaged generator.
Always check that the fuel cap, air filter, spark plug, fuel lines and
exhaust system are properly in place.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Always allow spilled petrol to evaporate fully before attempting to
start the engine.
Always be certain that the generator is resting firmly on flat level
ground.
When operating the generator:
DO NOT move, angle or tip the generator during operation.
When transporting or servicing the generator:
Always check that the fuel valve is in the OFF position and the fuel
tank is empty.
Disconnect the spark plug wire.
When storing the generator:
Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other
sources of ignition.
Do not store generator or petrol near furnaces, water heaters,
or any other appliances that produce heat or have automatic
ignitions.
NEVER place a petrol container, petrol tank, LPG cylinder or
any combustible material in the path of the exhaust stream
during operation of the engine.
A
Never use a petrol container, fuel tank, or any other fuel item
that is broken, cut, torn or damaged.
