Filling Fuel Tank
We recommend the use of clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline. The use of lead-free gasoline results in
few combustion deposits and longer valve life. Do not fill fuel tank completely,
allow space for fuel to expand. Provide approximately ¼” of tank space for fuel
expansion.
1.
Shut-off engine and allow engine to completely cool before refilling
the fuel tank.
2.
Move to a well-ventilated area, outdoors, away from flames and
sparks.
3.
Clean debris from area around the fuel cap.
4.
Loosen fuel cap slowly. Prevent the cap from coming in contact with
dirt or debris.
5.
Carefully add fuel without spilling.
6.
Do not fill gas tank completely full, allow space for fuel to expand.
7.
Immediately replace fuel cap and tighten. Wipe off spilled fuel to allow it to dry before
starting engine.
