TirePressure
The proper inflation pressure is between 15 psi and 20 psi. Check
the tire pressure periodically and maintain equal pressure in
both tires at all times. Excessive pressure (well above 20 psi) may
cause the wheel (tire/rim) assembly to burst with sufficient force
to cause serious injury. Do not over-inflate the tire. Use a manual
pump or portable electric tire inflator to prevent over-inflation.
NEVER USE AN AIR COMPRESSOR.
Fuel Rec0mmedati0ns
Use automotive gasoline (unleaded or low leaded to minimize
combustion chamber deposits) with a minimum of 87 octane.
Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol or 15% MTBE (Methyl Tertiary
Butyl Ether) can be used. Never use an oil/gasoline mixture or
dirty gasoline. Avoid getting dirt, dust, or water in the fuel tank.
DO NOT use E85 gasoline.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where
the engine is refueled or where gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. After refueling, make sure the
tank cap is closed properly and securely.
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or
fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the
area is dry before starting the engine.
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or
breathing of vapor.
Adding Fuel
WARNING! Use extreme care when handling
gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable and the
vapors are explosive. Never fuel the machine
indoors or while the engine is hot or running.
Extinguish cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other
sources of ignition.
WARNING! Always keep hands and feet clear of
equipment moving parts. Do not use a pressurized
starting fluid. Vapors are flammable.

until fuel reaches the fuel level indictor, Fig. 3-6. Be careful
not to overfill.
