FILLING THE FUEL TANK

GASOLINE

IMPORTANT: ALWAYS use gasoline that

meets the following guidelines:

• Clean, fresh gasoline.

• A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91

RON). High altitude use may require a

different octane. Consult your engine

manual.

• Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol

(gasohol) or up to 15% MTBE (methyl

tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.

• Use of any gasoline other than those

approved above may void the engine

warranty. If the pumps are not marked

for the content of alcohol or ethers,

check ethanol and MTBE levels with

the fuel supplier.

• Do not modify the fuel system to use

different fuels.

• Never mix oil and gasoline.

NOTE: All gasoline is not the same. If the

engine experiences starting or performance

problems after using a new gasoline, switch

to a different fuel provider or fuel brand.

IMPORTANT: Excessively oxygenated or

reformulated fuels (fuels blended with

alcohols or ethers) can damage the fuel

system or cause performance problems. If

any undesirable operating problems occur,

use a gasoline with a lower percentage of

alcohol or ether.

Fuel Stabilizer

Gasoline left in the fuel system for extended

periods without a stabilizer will deteriorate,

resulting in gum deposits in the system.

These deposits can damage the carburetor

and the fuel hoses, filter and tank. Prevent

deposits from forming in the fuel system

during storage by adding a quality fuel

stabilizer to the fuel. Follow the

recommended mix ratio found on the fuel

stabilizer container.

To add fuel to fuel tank:

1. Put unit in open or well-ventilated area.

2. Stop engine and allow to cool.

3. Clean fuel cap and surrounding area.

4. Remove cap.

IMPORTANT: See engine manual for correct

type and grade of fuel.

5. Fill fuel tank. (see SPECIFICATIONS on

page 27page 27 for tank capacity.) Do

not overfill.

6. Replace fuel cap and tighten.

7. ALWAYS clean any spilled fuel.
