Operation

Filling the Fuel Tank

DANGER
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. A
fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others.
• To prevent a static charge from igniting the
gasoline, place the container and/or machine
directly on the ground before filling, not in a
vehicle or on an object.
• Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is cold.
Wipe up spills.
• Do not handle gasoline when smoking or around
an open flame or sparks.
• Store gasoline in an approved fuel container, out
of the reach of children.
•
For best results, use only clean, fresh (less than 30 days
old), unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or
higher ((R+M)/2 rating method).
•
Oxygenated fuel with up to 10% ethanol or 15% MTBE
by volume is acceptable.
•
Ethanol: Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol (gasohol)
or 15% MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) by volume
is acceptable. Ethanol and MTBE are not the same.
Gasoline with 15% ethanol (E15) by volume is not
approved for use. Never use gasoline that contains more
than 10% ethanol by volume, such as E15 (contains 15%
ethanol), E20 (contains 20% ethanol), or E85 (contains
up to 85% ethanol). Using unapproved gasoline may
cause performance problems and/or engine damage
which may not be covered under warranty.
•
Do not use gasoline containing methanol.
•
Do not store fuel either in the fuel tank or in fuel
containers over the winter unless a fuel stabilizer is used.
•
Do not add oil to gasoline.
Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded regular gasoline from a
major name-brand service station
Important: To reduce starting problems, add fuel
stabilizer to the fuel all season, mixing it with gasoline
less than 30 days old.

Checking the Engine-Oil Level

Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Check the
engine-oil level.
Note: Max. fill: 0.59 L (20 oz), type: SAE 30 or SAE
10W-30 detergent oil with an API service classification of
SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, or higher.
1. Move the machine to a level surface.
2. Remove the dipstick
1. The oil level is at its
maximum.
2. The oil level is too
high—remove oil from
the crankcase.
3. Wipe off the dipstick end with a clean cloth.
4. Insert the dipstick into the oil-fill tube, but do not
screw it in.

3. The oil level is too
low—add oil to the
crankcase.
