WHEN ADDING FUEL
• Turn pressure washer OFF and let it cool at least 2
minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to
relieve pressure in tank.
• Fill or drain fuel tank outdoors.
• DO NOT overfill tank. Allow space for fuel expansion.
• Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat, and other ignition sources.
• DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.
1. Use clean, fresh, regular UNLEADED fuel with a
minimum of 77 octane with equipment. DO NOT
use fuel which contains Methanol. DO NOT mix oil
with fuel.
2. Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.
3. Slowly add regular unleaded fuel to fuel tank. Be
careful not to overfill. Allow about 1.5" of tank
space for fuel expansion, as shown here.
4. Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled fuel.
CAUTION!
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
emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the
fuel tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel
lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next
season. See "Storage" on pages 21-22 for additional
information.
NEVER use engine or carburetor cleaner products in
the fuel tank as permanent damage may occur.
Fresh Start Fuel Cap
Adding fuel preserver helps keep fuel fresh and
carburetors clean for easier starting, all season long.
This new fuel cap automatically drips concentrated
fuel preserver into your fuel tank.
