Point 2 in Replacement of oil: "If oil spills out"
– If oil spills out between the fuel tank and engine main unit, the oil is sucked into through the cooling air intake port, which will
contaminate the engine. Be sure to wipe out spilt oil before start of operation.
REFUELING
Handling of fuel
It  is  necessary  to  handle  fuel  with  utmost  care.  Fuel  may  contain  substances  similar  to  solvents.  Refueling  must  be  performed  in  a  sufficiently  
ventilated room or in the open air. Never inhale fuel vapor, and keep fuel away from you. If you touch fuel repeatedly or for a long time, the
skin becomes dry, which may cause skin disease or allergy. If fuel enters into the eye, clean the eye with fresh water. If your eye remains still
irritated, consult your doctor.
Storage period of fuel
Fuel should be used up within a period of 4 weeks, even if it is kept in a special container in a well-ventilated shade.
If a special container is not used or if the container is not covered, fuel may deteriorate in one day.
STORAGE OF MACHINE AND REFILL TANK
– Keep the machine and tank at a cool place free from direct sunshine.
– Never keep the fuel in the cabin or trunk.
Fuel
The engine is a four-stroke engine. Be sure to use an automobile gasoline (regular gasoline or premium gasoline).
Points for fuel
– Never use a gasoline mixture which contains engine oil. Otherwise, it will cause excessive carbon accumulation or mechanical troubles.
– Use of deteriorated oil will cause irregular startup.
Refueling
WARNING: INFLAMMABLES STRICTLY PROHIBITED
Gasoline used: Automobile gasoline (unleaded gasoline)
– Loosen the tank cap a little so that there will be no difference in atmospheric
pressure.
– Detach the tank cap, and refuel, discharging air by tilting the fuel tank so
that  the  refuel  port  will  be  oriented  upward.  (Never  refill  fuel  full  to  the  oil  refill  
port.)
– Wipe well the periphery of the tank cap to prevent foreign matter from
entering into the fuel tank.
– After refueling, securely tighten the tank cap.
●   If  there  is  any  flaw  or  damage  on  the  tank  cap,  replace  it.
●   The  tank  cap  is  consumable,  and  therefore  should  be  renewed  every  two  to  
three years.
