filler cap is facing up.
Always thoroughly shake the

mixture in the canister before
fueling your machine.
WARNING
In order to reduce the risk of fire and
personal injury from escaping gas vapor
and fumes, remove the fuel filler cap
carefully so as to allow any pressure
build-up in the tank to release slowly.
