3.8 Refueling Procedure
This section provides the operator with the procedure
on how to refuel the engine.
Failure to heed the following safety
precautions could result in death or
serious injury:
• Use extreme caution while refueling
aerial platforms.
• Ensure that engine and all systems
are turned off before refueling.
• Refuel the aerial platform only in a
well ventilated area away from open
flame and other sources of ignition,
authorized by your employer and
supervisor.
• Never try to start an aerial platform if
you smell gasoline.
• Gasoline engine models:
Use only unleaded gasoline with an
octane rating 87 or higher.
• Diesel engine models:
Use ultra low sulfur fuel only.
Do not smoke in an area where aerial
platforms are stored or refueled.
When operating on a slope, ensure fuel
level is above half to avoid a possible
stall condition.
IMPORTANT
Before using your aerial platform ensure
there is enough fuel for expected use.
