SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR GASOLINE
AND GASOLINE VAPOR
DANGER
Gasoline is highly explosive and flammable and
can cause severe burns or death.
WARNING
loosen or remove the fuel cap while the generator
is running. Turn the unit off and allow it to cool for at
least five minutes before adding gasoline. Loosen
the fuel cap slowly.
WARNING
not attempt to extinguish the flame unless the
engine/fuel control switch is in the OFF
Introducing an extinguisher to a generator with an
open fuel valve could create an explosion hazard.
l Fire Hazard. Gasoline is highly flammable. Handle with
care.
l Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
A
l Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up
immediately if it comes in contact with the skin.
l Do not store gasoline near furnaces, water heaters,
or any other appliances that produce heat or have
automatic ignitions.

lights, heat, and other sources of ignition.
l Store any containers containing gasoline in a well-

deteriorate allowing gasoline or gasoline vapors to
escape which can create a serious hazard.
l Gasoline has a distinctive odor, this will help detect
potential leaks quickly.
l Gas vapors can cause a fire if ignited.
l Do not smoke when handling fuel, adding fuel to the
generator, or emptying the gas tank.
l Wear eye protection while refueling.
l Before adding fuel to the generator, turn the unit off and
allow it to cool a minimum of five minutes. If necessary,
move the unit to level ground.
l Do not remove the fuel tank cap when the generator is
running.
