GENERAL INFORMATION
j
Filling the Tank:
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and can
be explosive under certain conditions. Pull
the lanyard key off the stop button. Do not
smoke. Make sure the area is well ventilated
and free from any source of flame or sparks;
this includes any appliance with a pilot light.
Avoid filling the tank in the rain or where heavy dust
is blowing so that the fuel does not get contaminated.
The fuel tank is located inside the bow and the fuel
filler cap is on the left side of the bow. Turn the cap
counterclockwise and remove it.
A. Fuel Filler Cap
Open the storage compartment lid to observe the
fuel level in the fuel tank.
Fill the tank with the recommended octane rating
gasoline. The use of a small diameter pour spout (or
funnel) will make filling easier. Pour slowly to avoid
"spit back" and allow air to escape from the tank.
WARNING
Never fill the tank completely to the top. As
the fuel expands in a warm tank, it may over-
flow from the vent tube. After refueling, make
sure the filler cap is closed securely.
