the oil reaches the fill mark. Be careful not to overfill.

6. Remove the Gas Fill Cap and fill the Gas Tank with fresh, unleaded gas (with a minimum of 85 Octane) to approximately 1" to

Fuel Fill

Oil Fill

Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others.

To prevent a static from igniting the gasoline, place the container and/or mower directly on the ground before filling, not in a
vehicle or on an object.

Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is cold. Wipe up spills.

Do not handle gasoline when smoking or around an open flame or sparks.

Store gasoline in an approved fuel container, out of the reach of children.
