Fuel Recommendations
Use automotive gasoline (unleaded or low leaded to minimize combus-
tion chamber deposits) with a minimum of 87 octane. Gasoline with
up to 10% ethanol or 15% MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) can be
used. Never use an oil/gasoline mixture or dirty gasoline. Avoid getting
dirt, dust, or water in the fuel tank. DO NOT use E85 gasoline.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not
smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is
refueled or where gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. After refueling, make sure the tank
cap is closed properly and securely.
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor
may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before
starting the engine.
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor.
Adding Fuel
Use extreme care when handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive. Never fuel the machine
indoors or while the engine is hot or running. Extinguish cigarettes,
cigars, pipes and other sources of ignition.
Always keep hands and feet clear of equipment moving parts. Do not
use a pressurized starting fluid. Vapors are flammable.
1.
Remove the gas cap, check the fuel level and add fuel if necessary.
Fill the tank until the fuel reaches 1/2" below the bottom of the filler
neck to allow for fuel expansion. Be careful not to overfill.
