Adding Fuel
Fuel requirements are as follows:
• Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.
• Minimum rating of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 RON).
• Up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) is acceptable (where available;
non-ethanol-premium fuel is recommended).
• DO NOT use E85.
• DO NOT use a gas oil mix.
• DO NOT modify engine to run on alternate fuels. Stabilize fuel prior to storage.
1. Verify unit is OFF and cooled for a mini-mum of two minutes prior to fueling.
2. Place unit on level ground in a well venti-
lated area.
3. Clean area around fuel cap and remove cap slowly.
4. Slowly add recommended fuel (A). Do not overfill (B).

Add Recommended Fuel
NOTE: Allow spilled fuel to evaporate before starting unit.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel hose or tank during storage.
Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture,
which leads to separat
ion and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can
damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems,
the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. See the
Storage section. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank
as permanent damage may occur.
