POTENTIAL HAZARD
♦ In certain conditions gasoline is extremely flammable
and highly explosive.

and cause property damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

an open flame or where gasoline fumes may be ignited
by spark.
♦ Refuel only outdoors.
♦ Store gasoline in an approved container and keep it
out of the reach of children.
♦ Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the
cap of the fuel tank or add fuel when engine is running
or when the engine is hot.
♦ Never fill the fuel tank so that the gasoline level rises
above a level that is 1/2” below the bottom of the filler
