FUEL HANDLING
Fueling
! |
WARNING! Taking the following precautions, will lessen the risk of fire:
Refuel in a well ventilated area. Never fuel the machine indoors.
Do not smoke or place hot objects near fuel.
Always shut off the engine before refuelling.
Always stop the engine and let it cool for a few minutes before refuelling.
When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly so that any excess pressure is released gently.
Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refuelling.
If you have spilled fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and allow remaining fuel to evaporate.
Always move the machine away from the refuelling area and source before starting.
•Move the machine at least 10 ft (3 m) from the refuelling point before starting it.
•Clean the area around the fuel cap. Contamination in the tank can cause operating problems.
•Ensure that the fuel is well mixed by shaking the container before filling the tank.
•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.
