The operating procedures often involve using equipment and materials that are potentially hazardous. Injury to personnel and damage to equipment caused by fire, and misuse of equipment can be avoided by alert and responsible operators and technicians. Strict observance to established safety, care, and handling practices and procedures will allow personnel to perform their duties in a safe and hazard-free environment. a. General Precautions. The following are general safety precautions that need to be observed by all operators of the pump unit. Always be mindful to operations in progress. Never allow horseplay or loud talking that would divert the attention of operators or technicians. If the pump unit is left unattended, be sure no safety hazard will result because of absence. Whenever in doubt concerning this operation, consult qualified authority for advice. Do not attempt unauthorized shortcuts to save time, as they generally are not in accordance with safe procedures. Be prepared for any emergencies which may arise, and be familiar with the proper action to take in event of emergencies. When ending daily operations, make a thorough and orderly check of equipment to be sure that no hazards may develop during the time that pump unit is unattended. b. Preventing Fire. The following fire prevention rules must be observed: Do not smoke in the vicinity of the engine or fuel tank. Never use open flames in the vicinity of the engine or fuel tank. Clean up liquid spills immediately. Always pour acid into water; never pour water into acid. Store oily rags in metal, airtight container. c. Extinguishing Fires.
