Fuel safety
WARNING: Read the warning instructions
that follow before you use the product.
Fuel is flammable and the fumes are explosive. Be
careful with fuel to prevent injury, fire and explosion.
Do not breathe in the fuel fumes. The fuel fumes are
poisonous and can cause injury. Make sure that the
airflow is sufficient.
Do not remove the fuel tank cap or fill the fuel tank
when the engine is on.
Let the engine become cool before you refuel.
Do not fill fuel in an indoor area. Not sufficient airflow
can cause injury or death because of asphyxiation or
carbon monoxide.
Do not smoke near the fuel or the engine.
Do not put hot objects near the fuel or the engine.
Do not fill fuel near sparks or flames.
Before you refuel, open the fuel tank cap slowly and
release the pressure carefully.
Fuel on your skin can cause injury. If you get fuel on
your skin, use soap and water to remove the fuel.
If you spill fuel on your clothing, change clothing
immediately.
Do not fill the fuel tank fully. Heat causes the fuel to
expand. Keep a space at the top of the fuel tank.
Tighten the fuel tank cap fully. If the fuel tank cap is
not tightened, there is a risk of fire.
Before you start the product, move the product to a
minimum of 3 m/10 ft from where you refueled.
Do not start the product if there is fuel or engine oil
on the product. Remove the unwanted fuel and
engine oil and let the product dry before you start the
engine.
Examine the engine for leaks regularly. If there are
leaks in the fuel system, do not start the engine until
the leaks are repaired.
Do not use your fingers to examine the engine for
leaks.
Keep fuel in approved containers only.
When the product and fuel is in storage, make sure
that fuel and fuel fumes cannot cause damage.
Drain the fuel in an approved container outdoors and
away from sparks and flames.
