• Fill the fuel tank with diesel fuel ONLY. Filling the fuel tank with
gasoline may result in a fire and will damage the engine.
• Remove flammable material containers from the box before filling
them with fuel.
• Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in or near the area
where refueling is performed or where fuel is stored.
• Wipe up all spills immediately.
• Keep sparks, open flames or any other form of ignition (match,
cigarette, static electricity source) well away when refueling.
• NEVER remove the fuel cap while the engine is running.
• NEVER overfill the fuel tank. Do not fill the tank neck.
• If fuel spills on your skin or clothing, immediately wash it off with
soap and water and change clothing.
