Fuel Tank
The machine has one fuel tank, just behind the seat. 
The tank capacity is 4.5 gallons (17 liters).
The engine will run on a minimum of 85-octane 
unleaded gasoline (no oil mix). Environmentally 
adapted alkylate gasoline can be used. See also 
Technical Data concerning ethanol fuel. Methanol fuel 
is not allowed.
When operating below 32°F (0°C) use fresh, clean 
winter grade gasoline to help insure good cold weather 
starting.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Experience indicates that alcohol blended 
fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can 
attract moisture which leads to separation and 
formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas 
can damage the fuel system of an engine while 
in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel 
system should be emptied before storage of 
30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the 
engine and let it run until the fuel lines and 
carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel the next 
season. See Storage Instructions for additional 
information. Never use engine or carburetor 
cleaners in the fuel tank or permanent damage 
may occur.
