Transporting by vehicle: When
transporting in a vehicle, properly secure
your power tool to prevent turnover and
damage. Empty the fuel tank to avoid
any risk of spillage.
When the power tool is not in use, shut it
off and put it down so it cannot endanger
others.
Stop the Engine Before Refueling
Gasoline is an
extremely flammable
fuel. Keep clear of naked
flames and fire. Take care
not to spill any fuel.
Do not refuel while the
engine is still hot since fuel may overflow
and catch fire.
Open the fuel cap carefully to allow any
pressure build-up in the tank to release
slowly and avoid fuel spillage.
Fuel your machine in a well-ventilated
area, outdoors only. If you spill fuel, wipe
it off the machine immediately – if fuel
gets on your clothing, change
immediately.
After Refueling
Tighten the fuel tank cap
by hand with as much
force as possible.
Unit vibrations can cause
an improperly tightened
fuel cap to loosen or come off and spill
quantities of fuel.
To avoid risk of serious or fatal burn
injuries, check for leakage. If fuel
leakage is found, do not start or run the
engine until leak is fixed.
