Refuelling
WARNING:
●
Shut off the engine before refuelling, keep away from open flames
and do not smoke.
●
Loosen the tank cap (1) a little to release the tank pressure.
●
Remove the tank cap, and refuel. DO NOT fill fuel more than fuel upper
limit (3).
●
Wipe the outside of the tank cap to prevent debris from entering into the fuel
tank.
●
After refuelling, securely tighten the tank cap.
NOTE:
●
If there is any flaw or damage on the tank cap, replace it.
●
The tank cap wears out in course of time. Replace it every two to three
years.
●
DO NOT put fuel in the oil fill port.
NOTE:
●
Do not replace oil with the engine in a tilted position.
●
Filling with oil while engine is tilted leads to overfilling which causes oil contamination and/or white smoke.
After refilling oil
●
Wipe with a rag any spilled oil immediately.
REFUELLING
Handling of fuel
It is necessary to handle fuel with utmost care. Fuel may contain substances similar to solvents. Refuelling must be performed in a sufficiently
ventilated room or in the open air. Never inhale fuel vapor, and keep fuel away from you. If you touch fuel repeatedly or for a long time, the skin
becomes dry, which may cause skin disease or allergy. If fuel enters into the eye, clean the eye with fresh water. If your eye remains still irritated,
consult your doctor.
Storage period of fuel
Fuel should be used within a period of 4 weeks, even if it is kept in a special container in a well-ventilated and shaded area.
Otherwise, fuel may deteriorate in one day.
STORAGE OF MACHINE AND REFILL TANK
●
Keep the machine and tank at a cool place free from direct sunshine.
●
Never keep the fuel in a car.
Fuel
The engine is a four-stroke engine. Be sure to use an unleaded automobile gasoline 87 or higher octane ((R+M)/2). It may contain no more than
10% alcohol (E-10).
Points for fuel
●
Never use a gasoline mixture which contains engine oil. Otherwise, it will cause excessive carbon accumulation or mechanical troubles.
●
Use of deteriorated oil will cause irregular start-up.
