Fuel cock
The fuel cock supplies fuel from the tank to the car-
buretor while also filtering it.
The fuel cock lever positions are explained as fol-
lows and shown in the illustrations.
OFF
With the fuel cock lever in this position, fuel will not
flow. Always turn the fuel cock lever to this position
when the engine is not running.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Improper care when refueling.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Fuel can spill, which can cause a fire and se-
vere injury.
Fuel expands when it heats up. If the fuel
tank is overfilled, fuel could spill out due to
heat from the engine or the sun.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Be careful not to
spill fuel, especially on the engine or exhaust
pipe. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
Be sure the fuel tank cap is closed securely.
Do not refuel right after the engine has been
running and is still very hot.
