Warning! Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive, so care must be taken when working on any part of the fuel system.
Warning! The container in which the fuel was located contains fuel vapors and is potentially explosive.
Attention! Work on the fuel system must be carried out in a well-ventilated area, for which all windows and doors can be opened to create a draft.
Attention! When working on the fuel system, do not use open flames, electric welding, or tools that may generate sparks. Make sure there is a charged fire extinguisher in the immediate vicinity of the workplace.
Attention! Use goggles to protect your eyes from getting fuel in them. If fuel comes into contact with skin, wash the area with plenty of water.
Attention! Keep the fuel system clean as dirt entering the fuel system passages can block them and prevent the engine from running properly.
