Fuel Tank
Read the safety instructions before refueling. The 
machine has one fuel tank, just behind the seat. The 
tank capacity is 5.7 gallons (22 liters). 
Make sure the fuel cap is properly tightened and the 
cap gasket is not damaged.
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. Do not use E85 alcohol based fuel. 
Damage to engine and components may occur.
When operating in temperatures 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.
