GASOLINE
IMPORTANT:
Always use gasoline that
meets the following guidelines:
•
Clean, fresh gasoline.
•
A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91
RON). High altitude use may require a
different octane. Consult your Engine
Manual.
•
Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol
(gasohol) or up to 10% MTBE (methyl
tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.
•
Use of any gasoline other than those
approved above may void the engine
warranty. If gas pumps are not marked
for the content of alcohol or ethers,
check ethanol and MTBE levels with
the fuel supplier.
•
Do not modify the fuel system to use
different fuels.
•
Never mix oil and gasoline.
NOTICE:
All gasoline is not the same. If the
engine experiences starting or performance
problems after using a new gasoline, switch
to a different fuel provider or fuel brand.
IMPORTANT:
Excessively oxygenated or
reformulated fuels (fuels blended with
alcohols or ethers) can damage the fuel
system or cause performance problems. If
any undesirable operating problems occur,
use a gasoline with a lower percentage of
alcohol or ether.
Fuel Tank
To add fuel:
1. Turn engine off and let cool for at least
three minutes.
2. Open fuel and oil door (Item 22) and
clean fuel cap and surrounding area to
prevent moisture and debris from
entering fuel tank.
3. Remove fuel cap.
IMPORTANT:
Refer to Engine Manual for
correct type and grade of fuel.
4. Fill fuel tank to bottom of filler neck. See
on page 20 for fuel
tank capacity.
IMPORTANT:
Do not overfill! This equipment
and/or its engine may include evaporative
emissions control system components,
required to meet EPA and/or CARB
regulations, that will only function properly
when the fuel tank has been filled to the
recommended level. Overfilling may cause
permanent damage to evaporative emissions
control system components. Filling to the
recommended level ensures a vapor gap
required to allow for fuel expansion. Pay
close attention while filling the fuel tank to
ensure that the recommended fuel level
inside the tank is not exceeded. Use a
portable gasoline container with an
appropriately sized dispensing spout when
filling the tank. Do not use a funnel or other
device that obstructs the view of the tank
filling process.
5. Replace fuel cap and tighten.
6. Clean up any spilled fuel and close fuel
and oil door.
Fuel Stabilizer
Gasoline left in the fuel system for extended
periods without a stabilizer will deteriorate,
resulting in gum deposits in the system.
These deposits can damage the carburetor
and the fuel hoses, filter and tank. Prevent
deposits from forming in the fuel system
during storage by adding a quality fuel
stabilizer to the fuel. Follow the
recommended mix ratio found on the fuel
stabilizer container.
