2) Fuel Recommendation
1. Check the fuel level gauge.
2. Refill the tank if the fuel level is low. Do not fill above the shoulder of the fuel strainer.
Warning: - Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions.
- Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
- Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is
refuelled or where gasoline is stored.
- Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck). After
refuelling, make sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely. Be careful
not to spill fuel when refuelling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapour may ignite. If any
fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
- Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapour.
- KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Use gasoline with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher.
We recommend unleaded gasoline because it produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits
and extends exhaust system life.
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt or water in
the fuel tank.
Occasionally you may hear light "spark knock" or "pinging" (metallic rapping noise) while
operating under heavy loads. This is no cause for concern.
If spark knock or pinging occurs at a steady engine speed, under normal load, change brands
of gasoline. If spark knock or pinging persists, see an authorized generator dealer.
