Refueling Procedure:

WARNING - RESPIRATORY HAZARDS

Diesel fuel and its vapors are dangerous to your health and the surrounding environment. Avoid skin contact and/or inhaling fumes.

1.Level Tanks – Make sure fuel cells are level with the ground. Failure to do so will cause fuel to spill from the tank before reaching full capacity (Figure 22).

CAUTION - REFUELINGTHE GENERATOR

ALWAYS place trailer on firm level ground before refueling to prevent spilling and maximize the amount of fuel that can be pumped into the tank.
