Portable Fuel Tank - Honda BF8D Owner's Manual

Do not allow water to enter the idle
exhaust port or the engine can be
damaged.
IDLE EXHAUST PORT

PORTABLE FUEL TANK

Place the portable fuel tank in a
well-ventilated location, away from
direct sunlight, to reduce the
possibility of a gasoline vapor
explosion.
To ensure that the outboard motor
will be able to draw fuel from the
tank, place the tank within 6 feet
(2 m) of the outboard motor and not
more than 3 feet (1 m) below the fuel
connector on the outboard motor.
OPERATION
Secure the portable fuel tank in the
boat so that it won't move around and
become damaged.
Gasoline is highly flammable and
explosive.
You can be burned or seriously
injured when handling fuel.
• Stop the engine and keep heat,
sparks, and flame away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
