Filling Fuel Tank Safely

c CAUTION: Avoid injury! Handle fuel with care, it is highlyflammable:

· DO NOT refuel machine while you smoke, when machine is near an openflame or sparks, or when engine is running. STOP engine.

· Fill fuel tank outdoors.

· Prevent fires: clean oil, grease and dirt from machine. Clean up spilledfuel immediately.

· Do not store machine with fuel in tank in a building where fumes mayreach an open flame or spark.

· To prevent fire and explosion caused by static electric discharge, whileyou fill tank, use a non-metal fuel container. If you use a funnel, MAKESURE it is PLASTIC. Avoid using a funnel which has a metal screen orfilter.

· Use only clean approved containers and funnels.

· Store oil and fuel in an area protected from dust, moisture and othercontamination.

IMPORTANT: Avoid damage! Avoid spilling fuel. Fuel can damageplastic and painted surfaces.

DO NOT mix oil with gasoline. Unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of87 or higher is recommended.

Fuel tank capacity is 1.9 L (2 qt.).

· Use only clean, fresh, unleaded regular grade gasoline.

· Remove any trash from top of fuel tank drain area.

· Use summer blended fuel for warm weather operation and winter blendedfuel for cold weather.

· Never use fuel that is stale or has been stored for a long period of time:

Warm Weather - Maximum 60 days.

Cold Weather - Maximum of 90 days.

of 23Service


· Fill fuel tank at the end of each day's operation. This helps to keepcondensation out of fuel tank.

Oxygenated Fuel

Oxygenates (either ethanol or MTBE) are added to the gasoline. If you usethe oxygenated fuel be sure it is unleaded and meets the minimum octanerating requirement.

The following are the EPA approved percentages of fuel oxygenates:

ETHANOL (Ethyl or Grain Alcohol): You may use gasoline containing upto 10 percent ethanol by volume.

MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether): You may use gasoline containing upto 15 percent MTBE by volume.

Filling Fuel Tank

c CAUTION: Avoid injury! Allow engine to cool before refuelingmachine.

1. STOP engine. If engine is hot let it cool several minutes before you addfuel.

M96036

2. Remove fuel tank cap (A).

NOTE: Fuel tank capacity is 1.9 L (2 qt.). Do Not over-fill. Allow space in fuel tank forexpansion.

3. Fill fuel tank to 13 mm (1/2 in.) below bottom of filler neck to allowroom for gasoline to expand.

4. Install fuel tank cap.

Check Tire Pressure

of 23Service


M62509

Check tires for damage.

Check tire pressure with an accurate gauge.

Tire pressure should be 110 kpa (15 psi).
