PREPARATION
Fuel
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and can be
explosive under certain conditions.
Before refueling, turn the engine switch to
“OFF” position. Do not smoke. Make sure
the area is well ventilated and free from any
source of flame or sparks, including any ap-
pliances with a pilot lamp.
Never fill tank so that fuel level rises into
the filler neck. If tank is overfilled, heat may
cause fuel to expand and overflow through
vents in tank cap.
After refueling make sure tank cap is se-
curely closed.
If gasoline is spilled, wipe it up immediately.

gine otherwise shortage of the engine oil may cause
