certain circumstances there can be a danger
of an explosion or fire. Be extremely careful
and note the following points:
Stop the engine before refuelling.
Do not smoke and keep away from open
flames, sparks or any other source of fire.
If you do accidentally spill gasoline, wipe it
up immediately with dry rags.

a fire may occur. Therefore, make sure that
the engine is completely cool before per-
