FUEL SYSTEM CAUTIONS
Do not use Teflon tape to seal any fuel
fittings. Fragments of the tape may en-
ter into the fuel system, causing
damage or malfunction of critical fuel
system components.
Do not smoke, carry lighted tobacco or
use a lighted flame of any type when
working on or near any fuel related
component. Highly flammable air-fuel
mixtures may be present and can be
ignited causing personal injury.
Do not allow LPG to contact the skin.
LPG is stored in the fuel tank as a liq-
uid. When LPG contacts the
atmosphere, it immediately expands in-
to a gas, resulting in a refrigeration
effect that can cause severe burns to
the skin.
Do not allow LPG to accumulate in
areas below ground level such as in a
service pit or underground ventilation
systems. LPG is heavier than air and
can displace oxygen, creating a dan-
gerous condition.
Do not make repairs to the fuel system
if you are not familiar with or trained to
service Propane fuel systems. Contact
the dealer who sold you the engine to
locate a repair facility with trained
technicians to repair your fuel system.
Unlike gasoline or propane vapors that

air/fuel mixtures may be present and
can be ignited causing personal injury.
Always work in well ventilated areas.
