WARNING
Always stop the engine before refueling. Fuel is inflammable
and explosive under certain conditions. Always work in a well
ventilated area. Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks
in the vicinity. Open cap slowly. If a differential pressure con-
dition is noticed (whistling sound heard when loosening fuel
tank cap) have vehicle inspected and/or repaired before fur-
ther operation. Do not overfill or top off the fuel tank before
placing the vehicle in a warm area. As temperature increases,
fuel expands and might overflow. Always wipe off any fuel
spillage from the vehicle. Periodically verify fuel system.
Fuel System Antifreeze
When using oxygenated fuel, additional gas line antifreeze or water
absorbing additives are not required and should be not used.
When using non-oxygenated fuel, we highly recommend the use of
isopropyl base gas line antifreeze in a proportion of 150 mL (5 U.S.
oz) of gas line antifreeze added to 40 liters (10-1/2 U.S. gal) of gas.
This precaution is in order to reduce the risk of frost buildup in carbu-
retor(s) which may lead, in certain cases, to high fuel consumption
or severe damage to engine.
NOTE: Use only methyl hydrate free gas line antifreeze.
Recommended Oil

CAUTION: Use only injection oil that flows at - 40°C (- 40°F). Do
