Introduction Important Safety Information VT 520 Terminal Setup Okidata 184/186 Printer Setup

Important Safety Information

Notes: 1) Save this Important Safety Information section

in a readily accessible location.

2) Although DEF is non-flammable, Diesel is flammable. Therefore, for DEF cabinets that are attached to Diesel dispensers, follow all the notes in this section that pertain to flammable fuels.

This section introduces the hazards and safety precautio ns associated with installing, inspecting, maintaining or servicing this product. Before performing any task on this product, read this safety information and the applicable sections in this manual, where additional hazards and safety precaution s for your task will be found. Fire, explosion, electrical shock or pressure release could occur and cause death or se rious injury, if these safe service procedures are not followed.

Preliminary Precautions

You are working in a potentially dangerous environment of flammable fuels, vapors, and high voltage or pressures. Only trained or authorized individuals knowledgeable in the related procedures should install, inspect, maintain or service this equipment.

Emergency Total Electrical Shut-Off

The first and most important information you must know is how to stop all fuel flow to the pump/dispenser and island. Locate the switch or circuit breakers that shut of f all p ower to all fueling equipment, dispensing devices, and Submerged Turbine Pumps (STPs).

WARNING

The EMERGENCY STOP, ALL STOP, and PUMP STOP buttons at the cashier’s station WILL NOT shut off electrical power to the pump/dispenser. This means that even if you activate these stops, fuel may continue to flow uncontrolled. You must use the TOTAL ELECTRICAL SHUT-OFF in the case of an emergency and not the console’s ALL STOP and PUMP STOP or similar keys.

Total Electrical Shut-Off Before Access

Any procedure that requires access to electrical component s or the electronics of the dispenser requires total electrical shut off of that unit. Understand the function and location of this switch or circuit breaker before inspecting, installing, maintaining, or servicing Gasboy equipment.

Evacuating, Barricading and Shutting Off

Any procedure that requires access to the pump/dispenser or STPs requires the following actions:

Read the Manual

Read, understand and follow this manual and any other labels or related materials supplied with this equipment. If you do not understand a procedure, call a Gasboy Authorized Service Contractor or call the Gasboy Service Center at 1-800-444-5529. It is imperative to your safety and the safety of others to understand the procedures before beginning work.

Follow the Regulations

Applicable information is available in National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 30A; Code for Motor Fuel Dispensing

Facilities and Repair Garages, NFPA 70; National Electrical Code (NEC), Occupational Safety and Hazard Association

(OSHA) regulations and federal, state, and local codes. All these regulations must be followed. Failure to install, inspect, maintain or service this equipment in accordance with these codes, regulations and standards may lead to legal citations with penalties or affect the safe use and operation of the equipment.

Replacement Parts

Use only genuine Gasboy replacement p arts a nd retro fit kits on your pump/dispenser. Using parts other than genuine Gasboy replacement parts could create a safety hazard and violate local regulations.

Safety Symbols and Warning Words

This section provides important information about warning symbols and boxes.

Alert Symbol

This safety alert symbol is used in this manual and on

warning labels to alert you to a precaution which must be followed to prevent potential personal safety hazards. Obey safety directives that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.

Signal Words

These signal words used in this manual and on warning labels tell you the seriousness of particular safety haz ards. The precautions below must be followed to prevent death, injury or damage to the equipment:

DANGER: Alerts you to a hazard or unsafe practice

which will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING: Alerts you to a hazard or unsafe practice

that could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION with Alert symbol: Designates a hazard or

unsafe practice which may result in minor injury.

CAUTION without Alert symbol: Designates a hazard

or unsafe practice which may result in property or equipment damage.

Working With Fuels and Electrical Energy

Prevent Explosions and Fires

Fuels and their vapors will explode or burn, if ignited. Spilled or

• An evacuation of all unauthorized pers ons and vehicles from the work area

• Use of safety tape, cones or barricades at the affected unit(s)

• A total electrical shut-off of the affected unit(s)

leaking fuels cause vapors. Even filling customer tanks will cause potentially dangerous vapors in the vicinity of the dispenser or island.

DEF is non-flammable. Therefore, explosion and fire safety warnings do not apply to DEF lines.

Important Safety Information

No Open Fire

Open flames from matches, lighters, welding torches

or other sources can ignite fuels and their vapors.

No Sparks - No Smoking

Sparks from starting vehicles, starting or using power tools, burning cigarettes, cigars or pipes can also ignite fuels and their vapors. Static electricity, including an electrostatic charge on your body, can cause a spark sufficient to ignite fuel vapors. Every time you get out of a vehicle, touch the metal of your vehicle, to discharge any electrostatic charge before you approach the dispenser island.

Working Alone

It is highly recommended that someone who is capable of rendering first aid be present during servicing. Familiarize yourself with Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) methods, if you work with or around high voltages. This information is available from the American Red Cross. Always advise the station personnel about where you will be working, and caution them not to activate power while you are working on the equipment. Use the OSHA Lockout/Tagout procedures. If you are not familiar with this requirement, refer to this information in the service manual and OSHA documentation.

Working With Electricity Safely

Ensure that you use safe and established practices in working with electrical devices. Poorly wired devices may cause a fire, explosion or electrical shock. Ensure that grounding connections are properly made. Take care that sealing devices and compounds are in place. Ensure that you do not pinch wires when replacing covers. Follow OSHA Lockout/Tagout requirements. Station employees and service contractors need to understand and comply with this program completely to ensure safety while the equipment is down.

Hazardous Materials

Some materials present inside electronic enclosures may present a health hazard if not handled correctly. Ensure that you clean hands after handling equipment. Do not place any equipment in the mouth.

In an Emergency

Inform Emergency Personnel

Compile the following information and inform emergency personnel:

• Location of accident (for example, address, front/back of building, and so on)

• Nature of accident (for example, possible heart attack, run over by car, burns, and so on)

• Age of victim (for example, baby, teenager, middle-age, elderly)

• Whether or not victim has received first aid (for example, stopped bleeding by pressure, and so on)

• Whether or not a victim has vomited (for example, if swallowed or inhaled something, and so on)

WARNING

Gasoline/DEF ingested may cause unconsciousness and burns to internal organs. Do not induce vomiting. Keep airway open. Oxygen may be needed at scene. Seek medical advice immediately.

WARNING

DEF generates ammonia gas at higher temperatures. When opening enclosed panels, allow the unit to air out to avoid breathing vapors. If respiratory difficulties develop, move victim away from source of exposure and into fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.

WARNING

Gasoline inhaled may cause unconsciousness and burns to lips, mouth and lungs. Keep airway

WARNING

open. Seek medical advice immediately.
