SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Maintenance
Safe Handling of Gasoline
To avoid personal injury or property damage,
use extreme care in handling gasoline.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and the
vapors are explosive.
• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes,
and other sources of ignition.
• Use only approved gasoline container.
• Never remove gas cap or add fuel with
the engine running. Allow engine to cool
at least two (2) minutes before refueling.
• Never fuel the machine indoors.
• Never store the machine or fuel
container where there is an open flame,
spark, or pilot light such as on a water
heater or other appliances.
• Before you begin refueling, minimize the
risk of static electricity by touching a
metal surface.
• Never fill containers inside a vehicle or
on a truck or trailer bed with plastic liner.
Always place containers on the ground
away from your vehicle when filling.
• Remove gas-powered equipment from
the truck or tailer and refuel it on the
ground. If this is not possible, then refuel
such equipment with a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
• Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of
the fuel tank or container opening at all
times until fueling is complete. Do not
use a nozzle lock-open device.
• If fuel is spilled on clothing, change
clothing immediately.
• Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap
and tighten securely.
• Do not start the engine near spilled fuel.
• Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
• If leaks arise in the fuel system, the
engine must not be started until the
problem has been resolved.
WARNING!
The engine must not be started when the driver’s floor plate or any protective plate
for the mower deck’s drive belt is removed.
