FUEL
Use unleaded gasoline with a octane rating of 86 or higher. This engine is certified to operate on
unleaded gasoline. Unleaded gasoline produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and
extends exhaust system life.
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive, and you can be burned or seriously injured when
refueling.
Stop engine and keep safety distance from source of heat, sparks and flames.
Refuel only outdoors.
Wipe up spills immediately.
NOTICE
Fuel can damage paint and some types of plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel when filling your fuel
tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not covered under the Warranty.
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt or water in the
fuel tank.
Adding Fuel
1. Remove the fuel tank cap. See page 4.
2. Add fuel to the bottom of the fuel level limit in the neck of the fuel tank.
Do not overfill. Wipe up spilled fuel before starting the engine.
Fuel tank capacity:
0,32 US gal (1,2 l)
2. Fuel Cap
Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate in storage. Deteriorated gasoline will cause hard starting, and
it leaves gum deposits that clog the fuel system.
The length of time that gasoline can be left in your fuel tank and carburetor without causing
functional problems will vary with such factors as gasoline blend, your storage temperatures, and
whether the fuel tank is partially or completely filled. The air in a partially filled fuel tank promotes
fuel deterioration. Very warm storage temperatures accelerate fuel deterioration. Fuel problems
may occur within a few months, or even less if the gasoline was not fresh when you filled the fuel
tank. Therefore we recommend do not use gasoline older than 30 days.
