Operation
Fueling (gas engine)
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive
under certain conditions.
• ALWAYS turn the engine off before refueling.
• Refuel in a well-ventilated area.
• Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the refueling
area or where gasoline is stored.
• Do not overfill the fuel tank. After refueling, make sure the
tank cap is closed properly and securely.
• Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or
fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the
area is dry before starting the engine.
• Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing
of vapor.
• Keep out of the reach of children.
Fuel Specifications
• Use automotive gasoline that has a pump octane number
of 86 or higher, or that has a research octane number of
91 or higher. Use of a lower octane gasoline can cause
persistent "pinging" or heavy "spark knock" (a metallic
rapping noise) which, if severe, can lead to engine
damage.
NOTE: If "spark knock" or "pinging" occurs at a steady
engine speed under normal load, change brands
of gasoline. If spark knock or pinging persists,
consult an authorized dealer of the engine
manufacturer. Failure to do so is considered
misuse, and damage caused by misuse is not
covered by the engine manufacturer's limited
warranty.
Occasionally you may experience light spark
knock while operating under heavy loads. This
is no cause for concern, it simply means your
engine is operating efficiently.
• Unleaded fuel produces fewer engine and spark plug
deposits and extends the life of the exhaust system
components.
• Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/
gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt, dust, or water in the
fuel tank.
Gasolines containing alcohol
If you decide to use a gasoline containing alcohol (gasohol), be
sure its octane rating is at least as high as that recommended
by the engine manufacturer. There are two types of "gasohol":
one containing ethanol, and the other containing methanol. Do
not use gasohol that contains more than 10% ethanol. Do not
use gasoline containing methanol (methyl or wood alcohol)
that does not also contain co-solvents and corrosion inhibitors
for methanol. Never use gasoline containing more than 5%
methanol, even if it has co-solvents and corrosion inhibitors.
NOTE: Fuel system damage or engine performance
problems resulting from the use of fuels that
contain alcohol is not covered under the
warranty. The engine manufacturer cannot
endorse the use of fuels containing methanol
since evidence of their suitability is incomplete at
this time.
Before buying gasoline from an unfamiliar
station, try to find out if the gasoline contains
alcohol. If it does, confirm the type and
percentage of alcohol used. If you notice any
undesirable operating characteristics while using
a gasoline that contains alcohol, or one that you
think contains alcohol, switch to a gasoline that
you know does not contain alcohol.
