CHECK FUEL LEVELS
!
CAUTION: Pressure can build up in the fuel tank.
Allow the generator to cool for at least two minutes before
removing fuel cap. Loosen the fuel cap slowly to relieve any
pressure in the tank
• ENGINE FUEL - With the engine stopped, check the fuel
level gauge. Rell the fuel tank if necessary.
• Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded gasoline only.
• DO NOT mix oil with gasoline.
• Be sure not to ll above the upper limit mark, always ll
to the level indicator, or ll to 25mm le from fuel tank
(to allow room for fuel expansion).
!
DANGER: FIRE OR EXPLOSION - Gasoline is highly
ammable and extremely explosive. A re or explosion
can cause severe burns or death.
• Keep ammable items away while handling
gasoline.
• Fill fuel tank outdoors and in a well-venlated area
with the engine stopped.
• Always wipe o spilled fuel and wait unl the fuel
has dried before starng the engine.
• DO NOT operate the engine with known leaks in
the fuel system.
• Use proper fuel storage and handling procedures.
DO NOT store fuel or other ammable materials
nearby.
• Empty the fuel tank before storing or transporng
this engine.
• Keep re exnguisher handy and be prepared if a
re starts.
!
CAUTION: NEVER use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
• It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming
in fuel system, such as the carburetor, fuel lter, fuel
hose or tank during storage. Also, any alcohol-blended
fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can aract
moisture, which leads to separaon and formaon of
acids during storage.
• Acidic fuel can damage the fuel system of an engine
while in storage. Be sure to review the Storage
instrucons.
