Filling the Fuel Tank

DANGER
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. A
fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others.
• To prevent a static charge from igniting the
gasoline, place the container and/or mower
directly on the ground before filling, not in a
vehicle or on an object.
• Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is cold.
Wipe up spills.
• Do not handle gasoline when smoking or around
an open flame or sparks.
• Store gasoline in an approved fuel container, out
of the reach of children.
Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded regular gasoline
from a major name-brand service station (Figure 7).
Use unleaded regular gasoline suitable for automotive
use (87 pump octane minimum). Leaded regular gasoline
may be used if unleaded regular is not available.
Note: Never use methanol, gasoline containing
methanol, or gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol
because the fuel system could be damaged. Do not mix
oil with gasoline.
Important: To reduce starting problems, add
fuel stabilizer to the fuel all season, mixing it with
gasoline less than 30 days old.

Checking the Engine Oil Level

Service Interval: Before each use or daily
1. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and fully install
the dipstick (Figure 8).
2. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level
(Figure 8). If the oil level is below the Add mark on
the dipstick, slowly pour oil into the oil fill tube to
raise the oil level to the Full mark on the dipstick.
Do not overfill. (Max. fill: 20 oz. (0.59 l), type: SAE
30 detergent oil with an API service classification of
SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, or higher.)
Note: If you overfill the engine, pour some oil out
of it as directed in Changing the Engine Oil.
3. Install the dipstick.
