REFUELLING HAZARD

refuelling. Clean up spilled fuel before
restarting engine.
• Do not refuel the machine while smoking or
when near open flame or sparks.
• Fill fuel tank outdoors.
• Prevent fires by keeping machine clean of
accumulated trash, straw, grease, and debris.
Approved Fuel:
Use unleaded automotive gasoline for all
operating conditions. The fuel tank capacity is
6.4 US quarts (6.1 liters).
Engine Oil:
Use a typical SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40
multiviscosity motor oil for normal operating
conditions. Consult your engine manual for the
recommended oil in cold temperatures. The

Engine Circuit Protection:
The circuit protector protects the battery
charging circuit. A short circuit, or a battery
connected with reverse polarity, will trip the
circuit breaker.
The green indicator inside the circuit protector
will pop out to show that the circuit protector
has switched off. If this occurs, determine the
cause of the problem, and correct it before
resetting the circuit protector.
Push the circuit protector button to reset.
