the engine from dirt and debris,
only remove screen when cleaning.
See Cleaning Debris Screen under
Maintenance for instructions.
NOTE: Do not mix oil with gasoline.
3. Replace the fuel cap on the tank.

Oxygenated Fuels
Some conventional gasolines are
blended with alcohol or an ether
compound. These gasolines are
collectively referred to as oxygenated
fuels. To meet clean air standards,
some areas of the United States and
Canada use oxygenated fuels to help
reduce emissions.
If you use an oxygenated fuel, be
sure it is unleaded and meets the 86
minimum octane rating requirements.
Before using an oxygenated fuel,
try to confirm the fuel's contents.
