The fuel tank is an integrated part of the engine. Figure 4-2
Park the mower on level ground before filling the fuel tank.
Clean the area around the fuel cap before removing the

After filling, reinstall the fuel cap.
IMPORTANT: Do not overfill the fuel tank. The fuel tank
should be filled no higher than the bottom of the fuel tank neck.
