Warning:
Flammable liquids are dangerous substances. Keep away from all ignition sources and store only the quantities permitted by your DSEAR and fire risk assessments. Always consult the safety data sheet (SDS) for every substance and never store incompatible materials together.

Inspection and Maintenance
Clean the paintwork periodically with warm soapy water or a foaming cleaner. Oil the hinges and lock sparingly as required with a light oil (3-in-1 or similar). Where a sump is fitted, inspect it regularly and clean out any spillage promptly using a suitable absorbent. Check that warning and regulation labels remain legible and replace them if damaged. Replacement locks and spare keys are available on request.
