SAFETY WARNINGS FOR GAS UNITS

vapors can explode if ignited. Take the following
precautions:

start the engine until fuel vapors dissipate.

fuel tank. Never remove the fuel tank cap or add fuel when
the engine is hot. Never operate the unit without the fuel cap
securely in place. Loosen the fuel tank cap slowly to relieve

are no sparks or flames. Remove the fuel cap slowly, and
only after the engine stops. Do not smoke while fueling.

start the engine until fuel vapors dissipate.
