1. Check the fuel level gauge.
2. Refill the tank if the fuel level is low. Do not fill above the shoulder of the
fuel strainer.
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 area where the engine is
refueled or where gasoline is stored.
l
Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck).
After refueling, make sure the tank cap is closed properly and
securely. Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or
fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry
before starting the engine.
