DO NOT over fill. The empty space in the fuel tank allows the fuel to
expand. Overfilling the fuel tank may result in fuel leakage, damage to
the engine and/or damage to the machine's emissions system.
DO NOT use E85 Fuel. Using E85 Fuel will cause severe damage to
the engine.
To avoid personal injury or property damage, use extreme care in
handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable and the vapors
are explosive.
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources of ignition.

4.
DO NOT start the engine until any spilled fuel has been cleaned

5.
NEVER store the machine or fuel container where there is an
open flame, spark or pilot light such as on a water heater or

6.
NEVER fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed
with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the ground away
from your vehicle before filling.
7.
Remove the machine from the truck or trailer and fuel on level
ground. If this is not possible, then refuel the machine with a
portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
8.
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or
container opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do not
use a nozzle lock-open device.
9.
If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immediately and
wash affected skin.
10. NEVER over fill the fuel tank. Replace gas cap and tighten the
fuel cap until it ratchets.
