Operation
Filling the Fuel Tank
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. A
fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others.
To prevent a static charge from igniting the
gasoline, place the container and/or mower
directly on the ground before filling, not in a
vehicle or on an object.
Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is cold.
Wipe up spills.
Do not handle gasoline when smoking or around
an open flame or sparks.
Store gasoline in an approved fuel container, out
of the reach of children.
Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded regular gasoline
from a major name-brand service station (Figure 7).
Note: Never use methanol, gasoline containing
methanol, or gasoline containing more than 10% ethanol
because the fuel system could be damaged. Do not mix
oil with gasoline.
Important:
To reduce starting problems, add
fuel stabilizer to the fuel all season, mixing it with
gasoline less than 30 days old.
