2. Check the fuel level.
a. Use automotive unleaded 87-octane gasoline only. Do not use premium or high
octane fuels. Engine is designed to run on regular gasoline. Engine damage and/
or poor performance may result. If the fuel level is low, refill the fuel tank until the
level reaches the specified mark.
b. After refueling, tighten the fuel filler cap
securely.
c. Never use an oil/gasoline mixture or dirty
gasoline. Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in
the fuel tank.
d. A fuel preservative and stabilizer should be added to any container of stored fuel.
Using non detergent oil or 2 cycle engine oil could
shorten the engine’s service life.

premium quality 4-stroke
engine oil, certified to
meet or exceed U.S.
automobile manufacturer's
requirements for API
Service Classification SG/
SF.

Gasoline containing alternate fuels
If you decide to use a gasoline containing ethanol, be sure its octane rating is
no lower than the specification. Do not use a blend that contains more than 10%
ethanol. Do not use gasoline containing methanol.
n
Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting from the use of
fuels that contain an improper alcohol blend are not covered under warranty.
n
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.
n
Replace fuel with proper blend if you experience any undesirable operating
symptoms while using a gasoline that contains ethanol, or one that you think
contains ethanol.
