PH4000Ri/E Owner’s Manual 14
5.2. Check the fuel level
• Use automotive unleaded regular gasoline only.
•
It is recommended that you use a fuel stabilizer, such as STA-BIL
®
, to help prevent fuel oxidation
(breakdown) and the formation of gum and varnish, and to inhibit corrosion in the fuel system.
• Never use an oil/gasoline mixture or dirty gasoline.
• Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in the fuel tank.
1.
If the fuel level is low, refill to the shoulder of the fuel strainer.
2. After refueling, tighten the fuel filler cap securely.
• Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions.
• Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Keep all smoking materials, sparks, and any
other source of combustion away from the generator during refueling.
• Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel above the upper limit mark). After refueling, make
sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely.
• Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is spilled,
make sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
• Avoid repeated or prolonged contact of fuel with skin or breathing of fuel vapor. KEEP OUT OF
REACH OF CHILDREN.

Gasoline containing alternate fuels
Do not use a blend that contains more than 10% ethanol. Do not use gasoline containing methanol. Octane rating of 87 or
higher is recommended.
• Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting from the use of fuels that contain an
improper alcohol blend, or by adding oil to the fuel, are not covered under warranty.
• Before buying fuel from an unfamiliar station, determine if the fuel contains ethanol and if it does,
confirm the type and percentage of ethanol used. If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms
while using a gasoline that contains ethanol, or one that you think contains ethanol, replace it with a
gasoline that you know has the proper blend.
