DANGER
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.
WARNING
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
conditioner 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
1. Shut the engine off and set the parking brake.
2. 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.
3. 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
the Engine Oil Level in Maintenance.
Note:
Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.
Think Safety First
Carefully read all the safety instructions and decals in
the safety section. Knowing this information could
help you or any bystanders avoid injury.
The use of protective equipment for eyes, hearing, feet
and head is recommended.
CAUTION
This machine produces sound levels in excess of
85 dBA at the operator’s ear and can cause hearing
loss through extended periods of exposure.
Wear hearing protection when operating this
machine.
