IMPORTANT: Do not use outboard mo- tor oil or multi−viscosity oils,such as 10W−30 or 10W−40.

3.Install the fuel cap onto the gasoline con- tainer. Vigorously shake the gasoline container to mix the oil with the gasoline.

5.This completes the gasoline mixing pro- cedure. The gasoline can now be added to the fuel tank.

CAUTION: Experience indicates that alco- hol blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine prob- lems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage for 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carbure- tor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage Instructions for additional information. Never use engine or carbure- tor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage can occur.

Do not fill the fuel tank with gasoline that does not have oil mixed in it. Shake the gasoline container before each filling of the fuel tank.
