100379 - FRONT TINE TILLER
Use regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane
rating of 85 and an ethanol content of 10% or less by
volume.
DO NOT mix oil and gasoline.
Fill tank to approximately ¼ in. (6.4 mm) below the top of
the tank to allow for gasoline expansion.
DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the tiller at the pump.
Use an approved container to transfer the gasoline to the
tiller.
DO NOT fill tank indoors.
DO NOT fill tank when the engine is running or hot.
DO NOT overfill the tank.
DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling the tank.
Pouring gasoline too fast through the fuel screen may result
in blow back of gasoline at the operator while filling.
Our engines work well with 10% or less ethanol blend
gasoline. When using ethanol-gasoline blends there are
some issues worth noting:
– Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water than
gasoline alone.
– These blends can eventually separate, leaving water or a
watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and carburetor.
– With gravity-fed supplies, the compromised gasoline can
be drawn into the carburetor and cause damage to the
engine and/or potential hazards.
– There are only a few suppliers of fuel stabilizer that are
formulated to work with ethanol-gasoline blends.
– Any damages or hazards caused by using improper
gasoline, improperly stored gasoline, and/or
improperly formulated stabilizers, are not covered by
manufacturer's warranty.
It is advisable to always shut off the gasoline supply, run the
engine to starvation and drain the tank when the equipment
is not in use for more than 30 days.
