3-5. DRAINING TANK. WARNING Fuels are hazardous flammable liquids. Do not smoke or bring open flame within 100 feet (30.48 meters) of the tank. If  fuel  spills  on  or  around  tank  or  within  the  diked  area,  shut  down  any  nearby engine-driven equipment.  Do not resume operation until it has been determined that the vapor concentrations are below the explosive range. If fuel spills onto clothing, remove clothing before entering area with engine-driven equipment or area where smoking is permitted. Fuels and fuel sludge can cause injury to skin or eyes. If fuel or sludge comes into contact with skin, flush skin with soap and water.  If fuel or   sludge   comes   into   contact   with   eyes,   flush   eyes   with   water.      For   further information on first aid, refer to FM 21-11. Fumes from stored fuels are hazardous. Do  not  carry  or  store  anything  edible  near  tank.    Food  will  absorb  vapors.    After leaving area, wash before eating or smoking. a. Empty fuel from tank following procedures in paragraph 3-4. b. Pump out tank as completely as possible.   Open drain gate valves. c.    Fold sides of tank toward middle.  Roll end of tank farthest from the lowest drain assembly toward the drain to squeeze our residual fuel. 3-5
