Before Operating
Danger
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can
burn you and others.
S To prevent a static charge from igniting the gasoline, place the container and/or
mower directly on the ground before filling, not in a vehicle or on an object.
S Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is cold. Wipe up spills.
S Do not handle gasoline when smoking or around an open flame or sparks.
S Store gasoline in an approved fuel container, out of the reach of children.
Warning
Adjusting the cutting height may bring you into contact with the moving blade, causing
serious injury.
S Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
S Do not put your fingers under the housing when adjusting the cutting height.
Filling the Fuel Tank
Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded regular gasoline
from a major name-brand service station.
Important: To reduce starting problems next season,
add fuel stabilizer to the fuel all season, mixing it with
gasoline less than 30 days old.
