REFUELING
Gasoline is highly flammable and
explosive.
You can be burned or seriously
injured when handling fuel.
Stop the engine and keep heat,
sparks, and flame away.
Handle fuel only outdoors.
Wipe up spills immediately.
With the engine stopped, check the fuel level gauge. Refill the fuel tank
if the fuel level is low.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area before starting the engine. If the engine
has been running, allow it to cool. Refuel carefully to avoid spilling fuel.
Never refuel the engine inside a building where gasoline fumes may
reach flames or sparks. Keep gasoline away from appliance pilot lights,
barbecues, electric appliances, power tools, etc.
Spilled fuel is not only a fire hazard, it causes environmental damage.
Wipe up spills immediately.
Fuel can damage paint and plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel when
filling your fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not covered
under warranty.
Do not fill the fuel tank above the upper limit mark.
