1. Safe Handling of Gasoline
2. To avoid personal injury or property damage, use extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is
extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.
3. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other sources of ignition.
4. Only use a US EPA approved compliant portable fuel container.
5. Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine running. Allow engine to cool before refueling.
6. Never attempt to refuel the lawn mower while indoors.
7. Never store the machine or fuel container where there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light such
as on a water heater or on other appliances.
8. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place
containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.
9. Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not
possible, then refuel such equipment with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
10. Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
11. If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immediately.
12. Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap and tighten securely.
