Fuel System - Husqvarna DT22 Operator's Manual

Fuel system

Gasoline and gasoline fumes are
poisonous and extremely flammable. Be
especially careful when handling
gasoline, as carelessness can result in
personal injury or fire.
• Only store fuel in containers approved for
that purpose.
• Never remove the fuel cap and fill the fuel
tank when the engine is running.
• Always stop the engine when refueling.
• Do not smoke when filling the gasoline
tank and do not pour gasoline in the
vicinity of sparks or open flame.
• Never fill the fuel tank indoors.
• Before starting the machine after refueling,
it should be moved at least 10 feet (3 M)
from the location where it was filled.
• Turn off the fuel supply for storage or
transport.
• If leaks arise in the fuel system, the engine
must not be started until the problem has
been resolved.
• Check the fuel level before each use and
leave space for the fuel to expand,
because the heat from the engine and the
sun can otherwise cause the fuel to
expand and overflow.
• Avoid overfilling. If you spill gasoline on the
machine, wipe up the spill and wait until it
has evaporated before starting the engine.
If you spill gasoline on your clothing,
change your clothing.
