Handling Fuel
Fuel is VERY flammable. Use extreme care when mixing, storing 
or handling, or serious personal injury will result.
◆ Use an approved fuel container. Mark fuel containers as 
containing 2-stroke mixture fuel.  
◆ DO NOT smoke near fuel.
◆ DO NOT allow flames or sparks near fuel.
◆ Fuel tanks/cans may be under pressure. Always loosen 
fuel caps slowly allowing pressure to equalize.
◆ NEVER refuel a unit when the engine is HOT or RUNNING!
◆ DO NOT fill fuel tanks indoors. ALWAYS fill fuel tanks 
outdoors over bare ground.
◆ DO NOT overfill fuel tank. Wipe up spills immediately.
◆ Securely tighten fuel tank cap and close fuel container 
after refueling.
◆ Inspect for fuel leakage. If fuel leakage is found, do not 
start or operate unit until leakage is repaired.
◆ Move at least 3 m (10 ft.) from refueling location before 
starting the engine.
Gasoline vapor is heavier than air, and can travel along the 
ground to nearby sources of ignition such as electrical motors, 
pilot lights, and hot or running engines. Vapors ignited by an 
ignition source can flash back to the fuel container, resulting in 
an explosion, fire, serious or fatal injuries, and extensive 
property damage.
