POTENTIAL HAZARD
Gasoline is harmful or fatal if swallowed.
Long–term eposure to vapors has caused
cancer to laboratory animals.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Failure to use caution may result in serious
injury or illness
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors.
Keep face away from nozzle and gas tank
or conditioner opening.
Keep gas away from eyes and skin.
Using Stabilizer/Conditioner
Use a fuel stabilizer/conditioner in the machine to
provide the following benefits:
Keeps gasoline fresh during storage of 90 days
or less. For longer storage, drain the fuel tank.
Cleans the engine while it runs
Eliminates gum-like varnish buildup in the fuel
system, which causes hard starting
IMPORTANT: Do not use fuel additives
containing methanol or ethanol.
Add the correct amount of gas stabilizer/conditioner
to the gas.
Note: A fuel stabilizer/conditioner is most
effective when mixed with fresh
gasoline. To minimize the chance of
varnish deposits in the fuel system, use
fuel stabilizer at all times.

Filling the Fuel Tank

1. Shut the engine off.
2. Clean around the fuel tank cap and remove the
cap. Use a funnel and add unleaded regular
gasoline to the fuel tank, until the level is 1/4 to
1/2 inch (6 mm to 13 mm) below the bottom of
the filler neck. This space in the tank allows
gasoline to expand. Do not fill the fuel tank
completely full.
3. Install the fuel tank cap securely. Wipe up any
gasoline that may have spilled.

Check Engine Oil Level

Before you start the engine and use the machine,
check the oil level in the engine crankcase; refer to
