Fill Fuel Tank With Gasoline

POTENTIAL HAZARD
In certain conditions gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn
you, others, and cause property damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors,
in an open area, when the engine is cold.
Wipe up any gasoline that spills.
Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the level
is 1/4" to 1/2" (6 mm to 13 mm) below the
bottom of the filler neck. This empty space
in the tank allows gasoline to expand.
Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark.
Store gasoline in an approved container
and keep it out of the reach of children.
Never buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline.
Use clean, fresh lead-free gasoline, including
oxygenated or reformulated gasoline, with an octane
rating of 85 or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase
only the quantity of gasoline that can be used in 30
days. Use of lead-free gasoline results in fewer
GB–14
combustion chamber deposits and longer spark plug
life. Use of premium grade fuel is not necessary or
recommended.
IMPORTANT: NEVER USE METHANOL,
GASOLINE CONTAINING METHANOL,
GASOHOL CONTAINING MORE THAN
10% ETHANOL, PREMIUM GASOLINE
OR WHITE GAS BECAUSE ENGINE
FUEL SYSTEM DAMAGE COULD
RESULT.
Toro also recommends that Toro Stabilizer/
Conditioner be used regularly in all Toro gasoline
powered products during operation and storage
seasons. Toro Stabilizer/Conditioner cleans the
engine during operation and prevents gum–like
varnish deposits from forming in the engine during
periods of storage.
DO NOT USE FUEL ADDITIVES OTHER
THAN THOSE MANUFACTURED FOR FUEL
STABILIZATION DURING STORAGE SUCH
AS TORO'S STABILIZER/CONDITIONER OR
A SIMILAR PRODUCT. TORO'S
STABILIZER/CONDITIONER IS A
PETROLEUM DISTILLATE BASED
CONDITIONER/STABILIZER. TORO DOES
NOT RECOMMEND STABILIZERS WITH AN
ALCOHOL BASE SUCH AS ETHANOL,
METHANOL OR ISOPROPYL. ADDITIVES
SHOULD NOT BE USED TO TRY TO
ENHANCE THE POWER OR PERFORMANCE
OF MACHINE.
1. Clean area around the fuel tank cap (Fig. 17).
Remove cap from fuel tank.
2. Using unleaded, regular gasoline, fill tank to
within 1/4" to 1/2" (6 to 13 mm) from the top of
the tank, not into the filler neck (Fig. 18). This
space is for expansion of fuel. Do not fill tank
full. Fuel tank capacity is 4 quarts.
3. Wipe up any spilled gasoline.
4. Reinstall fuel tank cap.
