Electricity Risk When RG21992-UN: Static Discharge (Fuel Nozzle)
The removal of sulfur and other compounds in Ultra-Low Sulfur
Diesel (ULSD) fuel decreases its conductivity and increases its
ability to store a static charge.
Refineries may have treated the fuel with a static dissipating
additive. However, there are many factors that can reduce the
effectiveness of the additive over time.
Static charges can build up in ULSD fuel while it is flowing
through fuel delivery systems. Static electricity discharge when
combustiblevaporsarepresentcouldresultinafireorexplosion.
Therefore, it is important to ensure that the entire system used
to refuel your machine (fuel supply tank, transfer pump, transfer

adhesives.
A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provides specific details
on chemical products: physical and health hazards, safety
procedures, and emergency response techniques.
Check the MSDS before you start any job using a hazardous
chemical. That way you will know exactly what the risks are
and how to do the job safely. Then follow procedures and
recommended equipment.

Washer must fit turned down section and not be too loose.
3.Lubricate O-rings using a thin film of clean hydraulic oil or as needed, petroleum jelly to hold O-ring in place.
Install O-ring into groove making sure it is seated at the bottom. Excess petroleum jelly will prevent seating of O-ring and cause
it to pop out.
