Fuel System

WARNING!
Gasoline and gasoline fumes are
poisonous and extremely flammable.
Be especially careful when handling
gasoline, as carelessness can result
in personal injury or fire.
• Only store fuel in containers approved for that
purpose.
• Never remove the fuel cap and fill the fuel tank
when the engine is running.
• Always stop the engine when refueling.
• Do not smoke when filling the gasoline tank and
do not pour gasoline in the vicinity of sparks or
open flame.
• Never fill the fuel tank indoors.
• Before starting the machine after refueling, it
should be moved at least 10 feet (3 M) from the
location where it was filled.
• Turn off the fuel supply for storage or transport.
• If leaks arise in the fuel system, the engine must
not be started until the problem has been resolved.
• Check the fuel level before each use and leave
space for the fuel to expand, because the heat
from the engine and the sun can otherwise cause
the fuel to expand and overflow.
• Avoid overfilling. If you spill gasoline on the
machine, wipe up the spill and wait until it has
evaporated before starting the engine. If you spill
gasoline on your clothing, change your clothing.
SAFETY
Never fill the fuel tank indoors.
Close the fuel valve.
Fueling always poses an element of risk.
