Important Safety Information

Important Safety Information

This section introduces the hazards and safety precautions 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 precautions for your task will be found. Fire, explosion, electrical shock or
pressure release could occur and cause death or serious 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 and island. Locate the switch or circuit breakers that shut-off all power to all fueling
equipment, dispensing devices, and submerged turbine pumps (STPs).

Evacuation and Barricading

Any procedures performed on or near the pump/dispenser (but not requiring accessing the
pump/dispenser or STPs) requires the following actions:

• An evacuation of all unauthorized persons and vehicles
• Using safety tape or cones as barricades to the effected units

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 Gilbarco Veeder-Root Support Center at 1-800-800-7498. It is
imperative to your safety and the safety of others to understand the procedures before
beginning work.

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 only these cashier station “stops.”
