WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and vapors can
explode if ignited. Handle with care.
Use fresh unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87
or higher . Do not use gasoline containing more than 10%
ethanol . Use of non-ethanol fuel is best . We recommend
the continuous use of a fuel additive /stabilizer to
counteract the effects of ethanol . These additives also
prolong the shelf life of gasoline .
NOTICE
Using incorrect fuel type or contaminated fuel will cause
serious engine damage .
NOTE:
Fuel tank capacity is approximately 1 .69 qt (1 .6L)
