Use extreme caution when handling
gasoline or fuel mix.
Do not smoke or bring any fire or flame
near the fuel.
Fueling instructions
Fuel your machine in well-ventilated
areas, outdoors only. Always shut off the
engine and allow it to cool before
refueling. Relieve fuel tank pressure by
loosening fuel cap slowly. Never remove
fuel filler cap while engine is running.
Select bare ground for fueling and move
at least 10 feet (3 m) from the fueling
spot before starting the engine. Avoid
spilling of fuel or oil. Wipe off any spilled
fuel before starting your blower and
check for leakage.
Always tighten fuel filler cap securely
after fueling.
!
Warning!
Check for fuel leakage while refueling
and during operation. If fuel or oil
leakage is found, do not start or run the
engine until leak is fixed and spilled fuel
has been wiped away. Take care not to
get fuel on your clothing. If this happens,
change your clothing immediately.
Always store gasoline in a container
approved for flammable liquids.
