HOW TO ADD FUEL
DANGER! Fuel is very flammable. Use extreme care when
handling or storing fuel. An ignition source contacting the
fumes or fuel may result in a fire or explosion and cause
fatal or serious injuries to you or a bystander.
DANGER! Static electricity can ignite gas fumes. Touch a
grounded object to discharge the static electricity before
adding fuel to the engine.
1.
Refuel outdoors or in a well-ventilated area and immediately wipe
up spills. Fuel can damage paint and plastic.
2.
Stop the engine and position equipment on a level surface.
3.
Let engine cool at least 2 minutes before removing the fuel cap.
4.
Clean the fuel cap area of dirt and debris. Do not allow dirt or
water to enter the fuel tank.
5.
Remove the fuel cap slowly to allow the pressure to equalize.
6.
Check the fuel level.
7.
Fill the tank to approximately 1.5 in. (38 mm) below the top of the
fuel tank to allow for fuel expansion. Take care to not overfill the
tank. It may be necessary to lower the fuel level depending on
operating conditions.
8.
Reinsert the fuel tank cap and tighten.
9.
Wipe up any spilled fuel before starting the engine or allow to
evaporate. Spilled fuel is both a fire hazard and an environmental
hazard. Dispose of the fuel soaked rags in a proper hazardous
waste container.
