PRE-OPERATION CHECK
Fuel recommendation
Check the snowthrower on level ground with the engine stopped.
Check the fuel level, and refill the tank if the fuel level is low. Refuel
carefully to avoid overfilling or spilling fuel. There should be no fuel in the
filler neck.
FUEL TANK CAPACITY: 1.25 0 (0.330 US gal ,0.275 Imp gal)
l
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain
conditions.
l
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Allow the
engine to cool down before refueling.
Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is
refueled or where gasoline is stored.
l
Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck).
After refueling, make sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely.
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may
ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the
engine.
l
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor.
l
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
FUEL FILLER OPENING FILLER NECK
Use gasoline with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher
We recommend unleaded gasoline because it produces fewer engine and
spark plug deposits and extends exhaust system life.
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid
getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
