Since sealed fuel tanks are not vented, they will expand and contract as the
fuel expands and contracts during heating and cooling cycles of the outside air.
This is normal.

DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE PRESSURIZED PORTABLE FUEL TANK
1. When installing the fuel tank cap, turn the cap to the right until you hear a
click. This signals that the fuel cap is fully seated. A built‑in device
prevents overtightening.
2. Open the manual vent screw on top of the cap for operation and cap
removal. Close the manual vent screw for transportation.
3. For fuel hoses that have quick disconnects, disconnect the fuel line from
the engine or fuel tank when not in use.
4. Follow
