then reinstall and tighten the plug.

l
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions.
l
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the
refueling area or where gasoline is stored.
l
Do not overfill the fuel tank. After refireling, make sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely.
l
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Fuel vapor or spilled fuel may ignite.
If
any fuel is spilled, make
sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
l
Check operation and condition of all controls. (If any parts are required, use only genuine Honda parts or
their equivalent).
l
Turn the fuel valve ON, start the engine and check operation. (Note: If the cylinder was oiled for storage,
the engine will smoke for a while after it starts. This will clear up.)
