Fill the fuel tank with fresh gasoline If you keep a container of gasoline for
refueling, be sure that it contains only fresh gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes and
deteriorates over time, resulting in bad fuel that may cause hard starting.

Gasoline is extremely flammable, and gasoline vapor can
explode, causing serious injury or death. Use extreme care when handling
gasoline. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the engine
will smoke briefly at start up. This is normal.
