FUELING
WARNING! Combustible fuel vapors may be vented from the fuel system.
Do not smoke or bring any re, ame, ignition source or equipment that could
cause sparks near the fuel or the chain saw.
Always shut off the engine and allow it to cool before refueling. Due to
agitation, weather, heat due to operation, or the type of venting system,
gasoline vapor pressure may build up inside the gas tank of the engine. To
reduce the risk of burns or other personal injury from escaping gasoline
vapors and fumes, remove the fuel cap slowly and carefully to allow any
pressure to release slowly. NEVER remove the fuel cap while the engine
is running.
WARNING! When lling a fuel container at the gas station, to avoid
gasoline ignition due to static shock, place approved container on ground away
from vehicle when lling and keep the gas nozzle in contact with the container
when lling. Do NOT ll any container while it is in a truck bed or in the trunk
of a car.
WARNING! Store fuel and unit where fuel vapors cannot reach sparks or
open ames from water heaters, electric motors or switches, furnaces, etc.
If you plan to store the unit for an extended period carefully empty the unused
fuel back into a safety can. Following the safe starting directions, run the unit
until it completely runs out of fuel.
