WARNING! Before operating the tractor, make sure the seat is engaged in the seat-stop. Engage the parking brake. Stand behind the machine and pull back on seat until it clicks into place.

Gas and Oil

The fuel tank is located under the hood. Remove the fuel cap by turning it counterclockwise. Use only clean, fresh (no more than 30 days old), unleaded gasoline. Do not overfill the tank.

The tractor is equipped with a tethered, ratcheting cap, STOP filling tank once fuel is seen inside the filler neck. This ensures that a proper expansion volume is created. Do NOT top off tank.

See Figure 3-6.
