Fuel
Use a fresh, clean, unleaded regular automotive
gasoline Do not fill the fuel tank in an enclosed area,
when the engine is hot or while youare smoking or
near a naked flame. Thoroughly clean around the fuel
tank filler cap before filling, this will help to prevent dirt
being introduced into the fuel system. Fuel should be
stored in a cool place away from naked flames. Do
not fill the tank while the engine is running. Fill the fuel
tank through a funnel fitted with a fine filter. Never fill
fuel tank completely, only fill to the base of the filler
neck. When filling the fuel tank from empty, or when
the engine has previously run dry, a minimum of 400cc
of fuel must be added (to the level of the line
indicated in the diagram) to ensure correct priming of
the fuel pump to start the engine. Your carburettor is
pre-set. Normally no further adjustment is required.
The handle position can be adjusted using the
guide and hook assembly.
