Fueling
Before fueling, clean the filler cap and the area around it
to ensure that no dirt falls into the tank.
Always thoroughly shake the mixture in the canister be-
fore fueling your machine.
In order to reduce the risk of burns or other per-
sonal injury from escaping gas vapor and fumes,
remove the fuel filler cap carefully so as to allow
any pressure build-up in the tank to release slowly.
After fueling, tighten fuel cap as securely as pos-
sible by hand.
