DANGER
Because diesel fuel is flammable, use caution when
storing or handling it. Do not smoke while filling the
fuel tank. Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine is
running, hot, or when the machine is in an enclosed
area. Always fill the fuel tank outside and wipe up any
spilled diesel fuel before starting the engine. Store fuel
in a clean, safety-approved container and keep the cap
in place. Use diesel fuel for the engine only; not for
any other purpose.
