Operation
In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or
explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others and can damage property.
Note: Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.
Think Safety First
•
Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area,
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any
gasoline that spills.
Please carefully read all of the safety instructions and
decals in the safety section. Knowing this information
could help you or bystanders avoid injury.
•
Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 1
inch (25 mm) below the bottom of the filler
neck. This empty space in the tank allows
gasoline to expand.
Checking the Engine Oil Level
Check the engine oil level before each use or every 8
operating hours, refer to Checking the Engine Oil Level.
•
•
Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark.
Filling the Fuel Tank
Store gasoline in an approved container and
keep it out of the reach of children. Never
buy more than a 30-day supply of gasoline.
Important: Never use methanol, gasoline
containing methanol, gasohol containing more
than 10% ethanol, gasoline additives, premium
gasoline, or white gas because the fuel system
could be damaged. Do not mix oil with gasoline.
•
•
Always place gasoline containers on the
ground away from your vehicle before filling.
Do not fill gasoline containers inside a
vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed because
interior carpets or plastic truck bed liners
may insulate the container and slow the loss
of any static charge.
•
•
•
When practical, remove gas-powered
equipment from the truck or trailer and
refuel the equipment with its wheels on the
ground.
If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment on a truck or trailer from a
portable container, rather than from a
gasoline dispenser nozzle.
Figure 21
If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used,
keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of
the fuel tank or container opening at all
times until fueling is complete.

Clean around fuel tank cap and remove cap from
tank (Figure 21). Using unleaded gasoline, fill fuel
tank no higher than to bottom of filter screen. Do
not overfill.
Gasoline is harmful or fatal if swallowed.
Long-term exposure to vapors can cause serious
injury and illness.
•
•
Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors.
2.
Install fuel tank cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.
Keep face away from nozzle and gas tank or
conditioner opening.
•
Keep gas away from eyes and skin.
