Secure the portable fuel tank in the
boat so that it won’t move around
and become damaged. Turn the portable fuel tank vent knob
counterclockwise to the open
position.
To ensure that the outboard motor
will be able to draw fuel from the
tank, place the tank within 6 feet (2
m) of the outboard motor and not
more than 3 feet (1 m) below the fuel
connector on the outboard motor.
Place the portable fuel tank in a well-
ventilated location, away from direct
sunlight, to reduce the possibility of a
gasoline vapor explosion.
