anything else which might cause it to ignite. Do not smoke or allow anyone else to smoke near to it.
④ Carry out mixing of gasoline and oil outdoors or in a well-ventilated place away from any source of fire.
⑤ Refill the fuel tank only after the engine is well cooled down, or there is a danger of fire.
⑥ The engine generates considerable heat. Do not touch any part of the engine until it has cooled down.
