Fuel
Fuel requirements are as follows:
• Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.
• Minimum rating of 87 octane/87 AKI (91
RON).
• Up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) is acceptable
(where available; non-ethanol-premium fuel
is recommended).
• DO NOT use E85.
• DO NOT use a gas oil mix.
• DO NOT modify engine to run on alternate
fuels. Stabilize fuel prior to storage.
1. Verify unit is OFF and cooled for a mini-
mum of two minutes prior to fueling.
2. Place unit on level ground in a well venti-
lated area.
3. Clean area around fuel cap and remove
cap slowly.
4. See Figure 2-14. Slowly add recom-
mended fuel. Do not fill above inner lip (A).
5. Install fuel cap.
Figure 2-14. Add Recommended Fuel
NOTE: Allow spilled fuel to evaporate before
starting unit.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is important to pre-
vent gum deposits from forming in fuel
system parts such as the fuel hose or tank
during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels
(called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture, which leads to separation
and formation of acids during storage.
Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of
an engine while in storage. To avoid engine
problems, the fuel system should be emp-
tied before storage of 30 days or longer.
See the Storage section. Never use engine
or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel
tank as permanent damage may occur.

DANGER
Explosion and Fire. Fuel and vapors are
extremely flammable and explosive. Add fuel
in a well ventilated area. Keep fire and spark
away. Failure to do so will result in death
or serious injury.
(000166b)
DANGER
Explosion and Fire. Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill to
1/2 inch from top of tank to allow for fuel expansion.
Overfilling may cause fuel to spill onto engine causing
fire or explosion, which will result in death or
serious injury.
