Operation
Adding Fuel
Use Unleaded Regular Gasoline suitable for
automotive use (85 octane minimum).
Important: Never use methanol, gasoline
containing methanol, or gasohol containing more
than 10% ethanol because the fuel system could be
damaged.
Do Not mix oil with gasoline.
In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or explosion
from gasoline can burn you and others and can
damage property.
• Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, when
the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline that spills.
•
Never fill the fuel tank inside an enclosed trailer.
• Do Not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 1/4 to 1/2
inch (6 to 13 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck.
This empty space in the tank allows gasoline to
expand.
•
Never smoke when handling gasoline, and stay
away from an open flame or where gasoline fumes
may be ignited by a spark.
• Store gasoline in an approved container and keep
it out of the reach of children.
Never buy more than
a 30-day supply of gasoline.
•
Do Not operate without entire exhaust system in
place and in proper working condition.
In certain conditions during fueling, static electricity
can be released causing a spark which can ignite
the gasoline vapors. A fire or explosion from
gasoline can burn you and others and can damage
property.
• Always place gasoline containers on the ground
away from your vehicle before filling.
•
Do Not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle or
on a truck or trailer bed because interior carpets or
plastic truck bed liners may insulate the container
and slow the loss of any static charge.
• When practical, remove gas-powered equipment
from the truck or trailer and refuel the equipment
with its wheels on the ground.
• If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment
on a truck or trailer from a portable container, rather
than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
• If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used, keep
the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or
container opening at all times until fueling is
complete.
Gasoline is harmful or fatal if swallowed. Long-term
exposure to vapors can cause serious injury and
illness.
• Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors.
• Keep face away from nozzle and gas tank or
container opening.
• Keep gas away from eyes and skin.
Using Stabilizer/Conditioner
Use a fuel stabilizer/conditioner in the machine to
provide the following benefits:
• Keeps gasoline fresh during storage of 90 days or
less. For longer storage, it is recommended that the
fuel tank be drained.
• Cleans the engine while it runs
• Eliminates gum-like varnish buildup in the fuel
system, which causes hard starting
Important: Do Not use fuel additives containing
methanol or ethanol.
Add the correct amount of gas stabilizer/conditioner
to the gas.
Note: A fuel stabilizer/conditioner is most effective
when mixed with fresh gasoline. To minimize the
chance of varnish deposits in the fuel system, use
fuel stabilizer at all times.
Filling the Fuel Tank
Shut the engine off.
Clean around fuel tank cap and remove the cap.
Add unleaded regular gasoline to fuel tank, until the
level is 1/4 to 1/2 inch (6 to 13 mm) below the
bottom of the filler neck. This space in the tank
allows gasoline to expand.
Do Not fill the fuel tank
completely full.
Install fuel tank cap securely. Wipe up any gasoline
that may have spilled.
Checking the Engine Oil Level
Before you start the engine and use the machine,
check the oil level in the engine crankcase; refer to
Checking Oil Level in Engine Maintenance.
