  NOTICE: ENGINE MAY BE SHIPPED WITHOUT OIL. Check oil level before starting engine. See "Oil Recommendations" in operator's manual for type of oil to use and checking/filling instructions. Do not overfill.
  Use clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline (not to exceed 10% Ethanol). Do not mix oil with gasoline. Use Briggs & Stratton Fresh Start® (Part # 1000002), available at your lawn & garden reseller to assure fuel freshness.
  To prevent starting or performance problems, transport and store the equipment with the engine in its normal operating position. Refer to Engine Operating Manual for complete transporting and servicing guidelines.
