Filling The Fuel Tank - LawnMaster NPTGCP2617A Manual Del Operador

OPERATION

FILLING THE FUEL TANK

NOTICE: Before each use, ALWAYS shake the fuel container thoroughly to ensure that the fuel is
mixed completely.
■ Place the tool on a flat, level surface, outdoors. Ensure the fuel tank and the shaft are in the
same level so enough fuel can be filled into the fuel tank.
■ Clean the area around the fuel tank and cap to prevent any contamination.
■ Loosen the fuel tank cap by turning it counter clockwise and remove (Fig. 14).
■ Carefully pour the fuel into the fuel tank, avoiding any spillage. Clean and check the gasket
before replacing the cap onto the fuel tank.
■ DO NOT leave the fuel tank unsealed while it contains fuel. Replace the cap immediately after
filling and inspecting the tank. Check that the cap is sealed tightly and wipe clean any spillage
that may have occurred.
NOTICE: It is normal for smoke to be emitted from a new engine after first use.
The operation of this tool requires gasoline, an extremely flammable liquid. Always turn off the engine
and allow it to cool completely before fueling. Never remove the fuel tank cap or add the fuel to the
tool while it is running or the engine is still hot. Make sure to fuel the tool outdoors on a flat, level
surface. After fueling, immediately replace the fuel tank cap and tighten it securely. DO NOT fill the
fuel tank on the work site; fueling must occur at least 10 ft. from where the operator intends to start
the engine. Keep the tool away from smoke, open flames and sparks! Failure to follow these
instructions could result in an explosion, fire and cause serious personal injury.
