CONTROLS

Fuel Shut-off Valve

The fuel shut off valve is placed on the fuel line below the fuel tank. The valve is on when the turn lever is parallel to the fuel line. The shut off position will have the turn lever running perpendicular to the fuel line. See illustration.

WARNING!

Fill to bottom of filler neck. Do not overfill. Wipe off any spilled oil or fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline near an open flame.

Fuel Tank

The machine has one fuel tank. The tank volume is 6 gallons / 22.7 liters.

The engine should run on a minimum of 87-octane unleaded gasoline (no oil mix). Also see Technical Data concerning methanol and ethanol fuels.

When operating in temperatures below 32° F. (0° C.), use fresh, clean winter grade gasoline to help insure good cold weather starting.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Experience indicates that alcohol 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 problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel the next season. See Storage Instructions for additional information. Never use engine or carburetor cleaners in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
