fuel could spill out due to heat from the en-
gine or the sun.
●
Be careful not to spill fuel, especially on the
engine or exhaust pipe which can cause a
fire and severe injury. Wipe up any spilled
fuel immediately.
●
Do not refuel right after the engine has been
running and is still very hot.
●
Be sure the fuel tank cap is closed securely.
