Danger
In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or
explosion from gasoline can burn you and others
and can damage property.
• Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, and
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline
that spills.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 1/4 to
1/2 in. (6 to 13 mm) below the bottom of the
filler neck. This empty space in the tank allows
the gasoline to expand.
• Never smoke when handling gasoline, and stay
away from an open flame or where a spark may
ignite the gasoline fumes.
• Store gasoline in an approved fuel container
and keep it out of the reach of children.
• Never buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline.
Danger
When fueling, under certain circumstances, a
static charge can develop, igniting the gasoline. A
fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others and damage property.
• Always place gasoline containers on the ground
and away from your vehicle before filling.
• Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle
or on a truck or trailer bed because interior
carpets or plastic truck bed liners may insulate
the container and slow the loss of any static
charge.
• When practical, remove gasoline-powered
equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel
the equipment with its wheels on the round.
• If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment on a truck or trailer from a portable
container, not from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
• If you must use a gasoline dispenser nozzle,
keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the
fuel tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete.
Use a fuel stabilizer/conditioner regularly during
operation and storage. A stabilizer/conditioner cleans the
engine during operation and prevents gum-like varnish
deposits from forming in the engine during periods of
storage.
Important
Do not use fuel additives other than a fuel
stabilizer/conditioner . Do not use fuel stabilizers with an
alcohol base such as ethanol, methanol, or isopropanol.
1. Clean around the fuel tank cap (Fig. 9).
2. Remove the cap from the tank.
3. Fill the fuel tank with unleaded gasoline to within 1/4
to 1/2 inch (6 to 13 mm) from the top of the tank. Do
not fill into the filler neck because the gasoline must
have room to expand.
4. Install the fuel tank cap and wipe up any spilled
gasoline.

Check the Tire Pressure

Check the pressure of the tires because they are
over-inflated at the factory for shipping. Maintain the air
pressure in the tires as specified. Check the pressure at the
valve stem after every 50 operating hours or monthly,
whichever occurs first (Fig. 11). Check the tires when they
are cold to get the most accurate pressure reading.
Pressure: 12–15 psi rear tires and 18–20 psi in front castor
wheel.
