CAUTION: Scrupulously follow the
instructions of this section. Failure
to do so may reduce the engine's
life and/or performance.

Fueling Procedure

WARNING
Follow these safe boating fueling
instructions meticulously.
Turn off engine.
Do not allow anyone to remain on the
watercraft.
Tie watercraft securely to the fueling
pier.
Have a fire extinguisher close at hand.
Do not insert the spout too far in filler
neck.
Pour fuel slowly so that air can escape
from the tank and prevent fuel flow-
back. Be careful not to spill fuel.
Stop filling when the fuel reaches the
bottom of filler neck. Do not fill into
the filler tube to prevent fuel spill out.
Do not overfill. Fully tighten fuel tank
cap.
WARNING
Always stop the engine before re-
fueling. Fuel is flammable and ex-
plosive under certain conditions.
Always work in a well ventilated
area. Do not smoke or allow open
flames or sparks in the vicinity. Fu-
el tank may be pressurized, turn
cap slowly when opening. Never
use an open flame to check fuel
level. When fueling, keep water-
craft level. Do not overfill or top
off the fuel tank and leave water-
craft in the sun. As temperature
increases, fuel expands and might
overflow. Always wipe off any fuel
spillage from the watercraft. Peri-
odically verify fuel system.
