translucent fuel tank.
tf the fuel level is low, refuel in a weIFventilated
area with the engine stopped. If the engine has
been running, allow it to cool first.
To refuel, set the tiller on level ground. Remove
the fuel tank cap, and fill the tank with gasoline to
the bottom of the filler neck. Refuel carefully to
avoid spilling fuel. Do not overfill. There should not
be fuel in the filler neck. After refueling, tighten the
fuel tank cap securely.

You can be burned or seriously injured when
handling fuel.
Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and
flames away.

Wipe up spills immediately.
Never refuel the engine inside a building where
gasoline fumes may reach flames or sparks. Keep
gasoline away from appliance pilot lights,
barbecues, electric appliances, power tools, etc.

Fuem Recommendations
Use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of
86 or higher.
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded
gasoline. Unleaded gasoline produces fewer engine
and spark plug deposits and extends exhaust
system life.
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an
oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt or water in the
fuel tank.
Occasionally you may hear a light "spark knock" or
"pinging" (metallic rapping noise) while operating
under heavy loads. This is no cause for concern.
tf spark knock or pinging occurs at a steady engine
speed, under normal load, change brands of
gasoline. If spark knock or pinging persists, see an
authorized Honda servicing dealer.
I NOTICE ]
Running the engine with persistent spark knock or
pinging can cause engine damage.
Running the engine with persistent spark knock or
pinging is misuse, and the Distributor's Limited
Warranty does not cover parts damaged by misuse.
