.A.WARNING
•
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 flame 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 in the filler neck). After
refueling, make sure the fuel filler 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.

•Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting from the
use of fuels that contain alcohol is not covered under the warranty. We
cannot endorse the use of fuels containing methanol since evidence of
their suitability is as yet incomplete.
•
Before buying fuel from an unfamiliar station, try to find out if the fuel
contains alcohol, if it does, confirm the type and percentage of alcohol
used. If you notice any undersirable operating symptoms while using a
gasoline that contains alcohol, switch to gasoline that you know does not
contain alcohol.
A.NOTE
3.2 Check the fuel level
Use automotive gasoline (Unleaded is preferred to minimize combustion chamber
deposits).
If the fuel level is low, refill to the shoulder of the fuel strainer, see fig. 4.
Never use an oil/gasoline mixture or dirty gasoline.
Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in the fuel tank.
After refuelling, tighten the fuel filler cap securely.
Gasoline’s containing alcohol
If you decide to use a gasoline containing alcohol (gasohol), be sure its octane
rating is at least as high as that recommended by us. There are two types of
"gasohol": one containing ethanol, and the other containing methanol. Do not use
gasohol that contains more than 10% ethanol. Do not use gasoline containing
methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) that does not also contain solvents and
corrosion inhibitors for methanol. Never use gasoline containing more than 5%
methanol, even if it has solevents and corrosion inhibitors.
Fuel tank capacity: 13L

3.3 Check the air cleaner
Check the air cleaner elements to be sure they are clean and in good condition.
Open the left side maintenance cover. Remove the air cleaner cover, remove the
paper element from the air cleaner cover, and check the both elements, clean or
replace the element(s) if necessary, see fig.5.

.A.CAUTION
•Never run the engine without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear will
result from contaminants, such as dust and dirt, being drawn through the
carburetor, into the engine.
.A.CAUTION
•Running the engine with insufficient oil can cause serious engine damage.
•The Low Oil Alarm System will automatically stop the engine before the oil
level falls below the safe limit. However, to avoid the inconvenience of an
unexpected shutdown, it is still advisable to visually inspect the oil level
regularly.
