liters).
The engine will run on a minimum of 87-octane

adapted alkylate gasoline can be used. Methanol fuel
is not allowed.
When operating below 32°F (0°C) use fresh, clean

not store, spill or use gasoline near an open

very hot during operation.
Risk for burns if touched.
Allow engine and exhaust system to cool at
least two (2) minutes before refueling.
IMpORTANT INfORMATION
Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol)
can attract moisture which leads to separation
and formation of acids during storage. Acidic
gas can damage the fuel system of an engine
while in storage. To avoid engine problems,
the fuel system should be emptied before
storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas
tank, start the engine and let it run until the
fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh
fuel the next season. See Storage Instructions
for additional information. Never use engine
or carburetor cleaners in the fuel tank or
permanent damage may occur.
WARNING!
Gasoline is highly flammable. Observe
caution and fill the tank outdoors. (See
Safety)
