Starting The Engine; Fuel Line Connection - TOHATSU BFT 60A Owner's Manual

Fuel Line Connection

Gasoline is extremely flammable,
and gasoline vapor can explode,
causing serious injury or death.
• Be careful not to spill fuel.
Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may
ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make
sure the area is dry before
starting, storing or transporting
the engine.
• Do not smoke or allow flames or
sparks where fuel is refueled or
stored.
• Set the fuel tank securely so that it
does not move or fall down while
cruising.
• Position the fuel tank so the tank
fuel line connector is no more than
1 m (3.3 feet) below the outboard
motor fuel line connector.
• Do not place the fuel tank more
than 2 m (6.6 feet) away from the
outboard motor.
• Be sure that the fuel line is not
kinked.
