machine has one fuel tank, just behind the console.
The tank capacity is 3.5 gallons (13.25 liters).
Regularly check the gas cap gasket for damage and
keep the cap properly tightened.
The engine will run on a minimum of 85-octane
unleaded gasoline (no oil mix). Environmentally
adapted alkylate gasoline can be used. See also
Technical Data concerning ethanol fuel. Methanol
fuel is not allowed. Do not use E85 alcohol based fuel.
Damage to engine and components may occur.
When operating in temperatures below 32° F. (0° C.),
use fresh, clean winter grade gasoline to insure good
cold weather starting.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol)
can attract moisture which leads to separation
and formation of acids during storage. Acidic
gas can damage the fuel system of an engine
while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the
fuel system should be emptied before storage
of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start
the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and
carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel the next
season. See Storage for additional information.
Never use engine or carburetor cleaners in the
fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
