Before Operation

Oil and Fuel

POTENTIAL HAZARD
• In certain conditions gasoline is extreme-
ly flammable and highly explosive.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• A fire or explosion from gasoline can
burn you, others, and cause property
damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
• Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank out-
doors, in an open area, when the engine
is cold. Wipe up any gasoline that spills.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the
level is 1/4 to 1/2in (6 mm to 13 mm) below
the bottom of the filler neck. This empty
space in the tank allows gasoline to
expand.
• Never smoke when handling gasoline,
and stay away from an open flame or
where gasoline fumes may be ignited by
a spark.
• Store gasoline in an approved container
and keep it out of the reach of children.
• Never buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline.
1. Do not smoke near fuel.
2. Mix and pour fuel outdoors and where there are
no sparks or flames.
3. Always shut off the engine before refueling.
Never remove the fuel tank cap while the engine
is running or just right after stopping the engine.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
• Gasoline contains gasses that can build
up pressure inside a gas tank.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• Fuel can be sprayed on you when
removing gas cap.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
• Remove fuel cap slowly to avoid injury
from fuel spray.
