Gasoline vapor can build up inside the fuel tank creating pressure. This pressure may
increase when the engine is hot from running. Opening the fuel tank under pressure can
cause rapid escape of ammable vapors and possible fuel spills that may ignite from
contact with hot engine surfaces resulting in burn hazard. To avoid these hazards, always
allow the engine to cool for at least 2 minutes before removing fuel cap and loosen the
fuel cap slowly to relieve any pressure in the tank.
FUEL TANK PRESSURE
Checking Fuel
REFUELING
Gasoline is highly ammable and gasoline vapors are extremely explosive. Fire and
explosions can cause severe burns and/or death. Keep gasoline away from ames,
sparks, and other ignition sources. Refuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area with the
engine stopped and cool. Wipe up any spilled gasoline and allow engine to dry before
starting. Keep a re extinguisher handy while refueling. Do not operate engine with leaks
in the fuel system. Do not store gasoline near other ammable materials.
Old gasoline can create deposits that clog fuel systems causing hard starting and poor
performance. Damage caused by old fuel is not covered by warranty. To minimize
deposits, avoid old fuel related performance issues, and prevent costly repair work, do
not use gasoline that is older than 30 days.
OLD FUEL
Using gasoline with an alcohol blend greater than 10% (E10) will damage the engine.
Damage caused by using an alcohol blend of 15% (E15), 85% (E85), or any other alcohol
blend higher than 10% (E10) is not covered under warranty. To avoid engine damage
caused by an alcohol blend that is too high, use gasoline with 10% (E10) alcohol or lower.
ALCOHOL BLENDS
The use of fuel system cleaning additives can damage the engine and fuel systems.
Damage caused by the use of fuel system cleaning additives is not covered by warranty.
To avoid engine and fuel system damage, do not use any fuel system cleaning additives.

DO NOT OVERFILL FUEL TANK
Overlling the fuel tank can result in carbon canister damage (if equipped), poor engine
performance, and void the warranty. To avoid these hazards, do not ll the fuel tank
above the maximum level.
1. Check fuel with pump on a level surface with the engine o󰀨.
2. Read fuel gauge and ll fuel tank if needed. For fuel gage location see the COMPONENT
LOCATIONS section of this manual.
3. Do not use gasoline that is older than 30 days. Use only clean and fresh regular
unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 87. Do not mix oil with gasoline. Do
not use gasoline that contains more than 10% ethyl alcohol. E15, E20, and E85 are not
approved fuels and should not be used.
4. Do not to ll the fuel tank above the maximum fuel level to allow room for fuel expansion.
For fuel capacity see the SPECIFICATIONS section of this manual.
Maximum Fuel Level
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts, such
as the carburetor, fuel lter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels (also
called gasohol, ethanol, or methanol) attract moisture, which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic fuel and gum deposits can damage the engine’s
fuel system while in storage. E󰀨ects of old, stale, or contaminated fuel are not covered
under warranty.
NOTE: Using a fuel stabilizer (sold separately) when storing gasoline will help prevent
problems related to ethanol alcohol in outdoor power equipment engines. Always follow
the instructions provided by the fuel stabilizer manufacturer to mix and use correctly.

Warranty Terms:
The FNA Group warrants to the original purchaser this product shall be free from defects in materials
and workmanship as follows. The FNA Group agrees to repair or replace, at their discretion,

workmanship within these warranty periods will be repaired or replaced at no charge to original
purchaser by an authorized service center. This warranty coverage extends to the original
purchaser only and is non-transferable. A transfer of ownership of this product will void this warranty.

defective part(s), covered under the above outlined warranty terms must be returned to an authorized
service center along with proof of original purchase. No warranty claim can be substantiated without

for any warrantable product(s) or part(s) to be sent to an authorized service center, or back to the
purchaser from the service center. All shipping and/or transportation charges are the sole responsibility
of the product owner. To locate the authorized service center nearest to you, contact customer support
at 1-877-362-4271 or email [email protected].
Under these warranty terms, the FNA Group is limited to repairing or replacing defective parts and
assumes no other obligation, nor does the FNA Group allow or authorize anyone else to assume them
for any other obligations. Because the FNA Group’s responsibility in respect to any and all warranty
claims is limited to making the required repairs or replacements. No claim of breach of warranty shall
be cause for cancellation or rescission of the contract of sale of any product manufactured by the FNA
Group.
This warranty does not cover any product manufactured by the FNA Group that has been subject to
abuse, misuse, neglect, negligence, accident, the effects of corrosion or erosion, or damage caused by
use that is in any way contrary to the operating instructions as specied in this manual. This warranty
also does not apply to any product damaged as the result of improper maintenance, the use of parts not
compatible with the product, or to any product that has been altered or modied from stock in any way.
In addition, this warranty does not extend to repairs made necessary by normal wear, routine
maintenance or any related parts such as tune-ups, spark plugs, carburetor adjustments, ignition
adjustments, filters, oil changes, recoil starter ropes, electric motor brushes, cotter pins, wheels,
gaskets, valves, pistons or any other parts considered to be wear items.
This warranty gives you specic legal rights. You may also have other rights that vary from state to
state. This warranty applies to a product manufactured by the FNA Group that is sold in the United
States and Canada.

or implied. There are no warranties of merchantability or tness of any product for a particular purpose.
The FNA Group’s only liability shall be the repair or replacement of parts as stated above. In no event
shall the FNA Group be responsible for any losses or damages that are indirect, consequential, punitive,
special, exemplary, or for economic loss, lost revenues, lost prots, or lost business opportunities,
regardless of whether such liability is based on breach of contract, tort, strict liability, breach of
warranties, failure of essential purpose or otherwise, or is a direct result of the FNA Group’s own actions
