Atom 506AV - Assembling and Operation; Assembling the Lawn Edger; Fuel and Oil Requirements

DANGER!
FUEL IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. HANDLE IT
WITH CARE. KEEP AWAY FROM IGNITION
SOURCES. DO NOT SMOKE WHILE FUELING
YOUR EQUIPMENT.
Always allow engine to
cool before refueling.
Accidental spillage of gasoline over a hot engine
could cause fire or explosion to occur. See
Page 4 – Safe Fueling Instructions.
Running the engine with
insufficient oil can cause
serious engine damage. Be sure to check the
engine on a level surface, with the engine
stopped, at regular intervals.
Your Atom Edger is powered by a four-stroke, air cooled
engine which requires unleaded gasoline only in the fuel
tank.
NOTE: Do not mix oil with the gasoline.
Only use sufficient fuel for a few weeks work and store in
an approved safety type container.
Pressure may build up in
the canister. Remove fuel
cap slowly to avoid injury from fuel spray.
Replace fuel cap securely. Take care when
handling gasoline. Avoid direct contact with the
skin and avoid inhaling fuel vapor.
