into the tank with the aid of a funnel.

portion of the neck to allow for fuel expansion.
Be careful not to over fill.
3. Be careful not to spill any petrol, if this happens, wipe
the spill with a clean rag.
4. Start the engine at least three meters away from the
area where the fuel tank has been filled in order to avoid
the risk of fire.
WARNING. Never attempt to refuel the engine while it is
running or still warm, allow it to cool before fuelling.
