OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Starting the Engine

Fuel
●
Level the engine before fueling.
●
Open the fuel tank cap and fill the fuel tank with 50 : 1 gas/oil
pre-mixed fuel.
●
Pour slowly to avoid "spill back" and allow air to escape from
the fuel tank.
●
Close the tank cap securely by turning it clockwise as far as
it will go.
WARNING
Never fill the tank so the fuel level rises into the filler
neck. If the tank is overfilled, heat may cause the fuel to
expand and overflow through the vents in the tank cap.
After refueling, make sure the fuel tank cap is closed
securely.
If gasoline is spilled on the fuel tank, wipe it off
immediately.
DANGER
Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless, poisonous gas.
Do not operate the engine in enclosed areas. Provide
adequate ventilation at all time.

to whip around and cause injury and/or damage the
