To add fuel:

disconnect spark plug wire. Remove key from key
switch. Allow the engine and muffler to cool for at least
three minutes.
2. Clean area around fuel fill cap and remove cap.
3. Using a clean funnel, fill fuel tank to 1/2” below bottom

WARNING
Gasoline and diesel fuels are highly
flammable and their vapors are explosive.
To prevent personal injury or property
damage:
Store fuel only in approved containers, in
well ventilated, unoccupied buildings, away
from sparks or flames. A container with a capacity of 2
gallons or less with a pouring spout is recommended.
Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine is hot or
running, since spilled fuel could ignite if it comes in
contact with hot parts or sparks from ignition. Do not
start the engine near spilled fuel. Never use fuel as a
cleaning agent. DO NOT MIX OIL WITH FUEL.
Check the oil level. If needed, fill the engine with the type
and amount of oil specified in the engine owner's manual.
