Stop the engine. Remove the fuel tank cap and visually check whether the fuel is
up to the ''LEVEL'' position (i.e. maximum level).
Or, place the tiller on a level surface, hold the fuel tank parallel to the ground,
and check the fuel level with a fuel gauge.
Use unleaded gasoline with a Research Octane Number of 91 or higher (a Pump
Octane Number of 86 or higher).
Fuel specification(s) necessary to maintain the performance of the emissions
control system: E10 fuel referenced in EU regulation.
Never use gasoline that is stale, contaminated, or mixed with oil.
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
• Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain
conditions.
• Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not smoke
or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or
where gasoline is stored.
• Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel above the upper
limit line on the fuel strainer). After refueling, make sure the tank cap is
closed properly and securely.
• Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may
ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the
engine.
• Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
After refueling, be sure to tighten the fuel tank cap firmly.
