Operation

Filling the Fuel Tank

DANGER
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. A
fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others.
• To prevent a static charge from igniting the
gasoline, place the container and/or machine
directly on the ground before filling, not in a
vehicle or on an object.
• Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is cold.
Wipe up spills.
• Do not handle gasoline when smoking or around
an open flame or sparks.
• Store gasoline in an approved fuel container, out
of the reach of children.
Note: Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded regular gasoline
from a major name-brand service station (Figure 15).
Note: Use unleaded regular gasoline suitable for automotive
use (87 pump octane minimum). Leaded regular gasoline may
be used if unleaded regular is not available.
Important: Never use methanol, gasoline containing
methanol, or gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol
because they could damage the fuel system. Do not mix
oil with gasoline.
Important: To reduce starting problems, add fuel
stabilizer to the fuel all season, mixing it with gasoline
less than 30 days old.
