WARNING: Gasoline is flammable and cau-
tion must be used when handling or storing
it. Do not fill fuel tank while snow thrower is
running, hot, or when snow thrower is in an
enclosed area. Keep away from open
flame, electrical spark, and do not smoke
while filling the fuel tank. Never fill fuel tank
completely; but fillthe tank to within 114-1/2
inch from the top to provide space for ex-
pansion of fuel. Always fill fuel tank out-
doors and use a funnel or spout to prevent
spilling. Make sure to wipe up any spilled
fuel before starting the engine. Store gaso-
line in a clean, approved container, and
keep the cap in place on the container.
Keep gasoline in a cool, well ventilated
place; never in the house. Never buy more
than a 30 day supply of gasoline to ensure
volatility. Gasoline is intended to be used as
a fuel for internal combustion engines;
therefore, do not use gasoline for any other
purpose. Since many children like the smell
of gasoline, keep it out of their reach be-
cause the fumes are dangerous to inhale,
as well as being explosive.
