3. Using oil funnel (optional), slowly pour contents of<br />

provided oil bottle into oil fill opening (A) to the point of<br />

overflowing (B).<br />

NOTICE Improper treatment of <strong>pressure</strong> <strong>washer</strong> can<br />

damage it and shorten its life.<br />

• DO NOTattempt to crank or start the engine before it has been<br />

properly serviced with the re<strong>com</strong>mended oil. This may result in an<br />

enginefailure.<br />

4. Replaceoil fill cap and fully tighten.<br />

Add Fuel<br />

Fuel mustmeet these requirements:<br />

• Clean,fresh, unleaded gasoline.<br />

• A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 RON). High altitude<br />

use, see High Altitude.<br />

• Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) or up to 15%<br />

MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.<br />

NOTICE Avoid <strong>pressure</strong> <strong>washer</strong> damage.<br />

Fill fuel tank outdoors.<br />

DONOT overfill tank. Allow spacefor fuel expansion.<br />

If fuel spills, wait until it evaporatesbefore starting engine.<br />

Keepfuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and<br />

other ignition sources.<br />

DONOT light a cigarette or smoke.<br />

To protect the fuel system from gum formation, mix in a fuel<br />

stabilizer when adding fuel. See Storage.All fuel is not the<br />

same. If you experiencestarting or performance problems<br />

after using fuel, switch to a different fuel provider or change<br />

brands. This engine is certified to operate on gasoline. The<br />

emission control system for this engine is EM (Engine<br />

Modifications).<br />

1. Cleanareaaround fuel fill cap, removecap.<br />

2. Slowly add regular unleadedfuel (C) to fuel tank (D). Be<br />

careful not to overfill. Allow about 1.5" (4 cm) (E) of tank<br />

spacefor fuel expansion.<br />

3. Install fuel cap and wait for any spilled fuel to evaporate.<br />

CAUTION! Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or<br />

methanol) can attract moisture, which leadsto separation and<br />

formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the<br />

fuel system of an enginewhile in storage.<br />

To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be treated<br />

with a fuel preserveror emptied before storage of 30 days or<br />

longer. If adding a fuel preserver, fill the fuel tank with fresh<br />

fuel. If only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel<br />

deterioration during storage. If fuel preserver is not used,<br />

drain the fuel tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel<br />

lines and carburetor are empty. Usefresh fuel next season.<br />

SeeStorage for additional information.<br />

NEVERuse engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel<br />

tank as permanent damage may occur.
