| WARNING | Do not drain the fuel into an open container. Never store the fuel in an open container due to the possibility of a fire or an explosion. |
| CAUTION | Drain the fuel tank to at least 3/4 of a tank before removing the fuel sender retaining ring or fuel sender access panel in order to avoid possible fuel spillage. Failing to follow this procedure could result in personal injury. |

- Use a hand operated fuel pump device in order to drain the fuel through the fuel tank filler pipe from the fuel tank.
