SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.

Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

Never fill the fuel tank indoors.

Fuel and fuel fumes are poisonous and extremely flammable. Be especially cautious when handling fuel, as carelessness can result in personal injury or fire.

Never remove the fuel tank cap and never fill the fuel tank while the engine is running.

Allow the engine to cool before refueling. Do not smoke. Do not fill fuel in the vicinity of sparks or open flames.

If leaks arise in the fuel system, the engine must not be started until the problem has been resolved.

Store the machine and fuel in such a way that there is no risk of leaking fuel or fuel vapor leading to damages.

Check the fuel level before each use and leave space for the fuel to expand, because the heat from the engine and the sun may otherwise cause the fuel to expand and overflow.

Avoid overfilling. If you spill fuel on the machine, wipe up the spill and wait until it has evaporated before starting the engine. If you have spilled fuel on your clothing, change your clothing.

Grass catcher components are subject to wear, damage, and deterioration, which could expose moving parts or allow objects to be thrown.

Frequently check components and replace with manufacture’s recommended parts, when necessary.
