securely. DO NOT over fill.

3. Fuel Tank – Holds unleaded gasoline. For additional

the starter grip until resistance is felt, then pull briskly and

smoothly.

5. Fuel Valve Lever – OPEN to let fuel flow, CLOSE to stop

the flow of fuel.

the fuel system. Remove wing-nut on top of air filter

cannister to gain access to filter element.

CAUTION - Fueling The Engine

Adding fuel to the tank should be done only

when the engine is stopped and has had an

opportunity to cool down. In the event of a fuel

spill, DO NOT attempt to start the engine until

the fuel residue has been completely wiped

up, and the area surrounding the engine is dry.

Engine components can generate extreme heat.

To prevent burns, DO NOT touch these areas

while the engine is running or immediately after

operating. NEVER operate the engine with the

muffler removed.
