ASSEMBLY
2.3 FILL THE FUEL TANK
Use only those types of fuels that are recommended in
your engine owner’s manual.
To add fuel:
1. Stop engine, wait for all parts to stop moving and
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
of filler neck to provide space for any fuel expansion.
Install fuel fill cap securely and wipe up any spilled
gasoline.
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.
WARNING
2.2 ADD OIL
Check the oil level and, if needed, fill the engine crankcase with the type and amount of oil specified in the engine
owner’s manual.
