Engine fuel is very flammable and fire could lead to serious personal injury or property
damage.

spot 3m or more away from where it was refueled before turning on the engine.

➢ Never store cans of fuel or refill the fuel tank in any place where is a boiler stove, wood fire,
electrical sparks, welding sparks or any other source of heat or fire which might ignite the fuel.
➢ Don't smoke when handling the fuel.
➢ When refilling the tank, always turn off the engine first and take a careful look around to make
sure that there are no sparks or open flames anywhere nearby before refueling.
12. If any fuel spillage occurs during refuelling, use a dry rag to wipe up spills before turning the
engine back on again.
13. Do not transport this unit on an uneven surface of the road for a long time when the fuel tank is
full. This may cause fuel spillage after the tank cap is loosened as a result of bumping and
impacting.
