Emergency Total Electrical Shut-Off
The first and most important information you must know is
how to stop all fuel flow to the pump and island. Locate the
switch or circuit breakers that shut-off all power to all fueling
equipment, dispensing devices, and submerged turbine
pumps (STPs).
!
WARNING
!
The EMERGENCY STOP, ALL STOP, and

Working With Fuels and Electrical Energy
Prevent Explosions and Fires
Fuels and their vapors will become explosive if ignited. Spilled
or leaking fuels cause vapors. Even filling customer tanks will
cause explosive vapors in the vicinity of dispenser or island.
Important Safety Information
This area contains a chemical known to the State of
California to cause cancer.
WARNING
!
This area contains a chemical known to the State of
California to cause birth defects or other reproductive
harm.
