Wear protective gloves! Prolonged exposure of the hands to fuel can cause irritation of the skin.

Have a fire extinguisher suitable for flammable liquids and electrical equipment at hand! Be aware of the risk for sparks, i.e. in connection with circuit breaking, short-circuiting, etc.

Absolutely No Smoking!

Wear protective glasses.
