before removing gas cap.
•
Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well-ventilated area.
•
Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill tank to approximately 1-1/2
inches below top of neck to allow for fuel expansion.
•
Keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
•
Check fuel lines, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for
cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
WHEN STARTING ENGINE
•
Make sure spark plug, muffler, fuel cap and air cleaner
are in place.
•
Do not crank engine with spark plug removed.
•
If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting engine.

throttle in FAST and crank until engine starts.
WHEN OPERATING EQUIPMENT

gasoline to spill.

OFF.
WHEN STORING GASOLINE OR EQUIPMENT
WITH FUEL IN TANK
•

appliances that have pilot light or other ignition source
because they can ignite gasoline vapors.

mable and explosive.

result.

When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is
felt, then pull rapidly.

Remove all external equipment/engine loads before
starting engine.

limited to, blades, impellors, pulleys, sprockets, etc.,
must be securely attached.
