3 gallons of gas. Remove the fuel cap by turning it counter-
clockwise. Use only clean, fresh (no more than 30 days old),
unleaded gasoline. Fill the tank no higher than the bottom of the
fill neck to allow space for fuel expansion.

vapors are explosive. Never fuel the machine
indoors or while the engine is hot or running.
Extinguish cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other
sources of ignition.

See the Service section for instructions on checking,
adding and changing oil.
CAUTION: Always check the engine oil level before
each use as instructed in the engine operator’s
manual. Add oil as necessary. Failure to do so may
result in serious damage to your engine
