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.
