Operation

Note: Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.

Think Safety First

Please carefully read all of the safety instructions and
decals in the safety section. Knowing this information
could help you or bystanders avoid injury.

Checking the Engine Oil Level

Check the engine oil level before each use or every 8
operating hours, refer to Checking the Engine Oil Level
in Engine Maintenance.

Filling the Fuel Tank

Important: Never use methanol, gasoline
containing methanol, gasohol containing more
than 10% ethanol, gasoline additives, premium
gasoline, or white gas because the fuel system
could be damaged. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or
explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others and can damage property.
• Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area,
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any
gasoline that spills.
• Never fill the fuel tank inside an enclosed
trailer.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 1
inch (2.5 cm) below the bottom of the filler
neck. This empty space in the tank allows
gasoline to expand.
• Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark.
• Store gasoline in an approved container and
keep it out of the reach of children. Never
buy more than a 30-day supply of gasoline.
• Do not operate without entire exhaust
system in place and in proper working
condition.
