Portable fuel containers
If you carry a portable fuel container in the
bed of your Yamaha Wolverine, be sure to se-
cure it with the cap tightened before driving
the vehicle.
Always place a portable fuel container on the
ground before filling it. Before removing the
container cap, touch the container with the
fuel dispenser nozzle. Keep fuel dispenser
nozzle in contact with container inlet when fill-
ing. WARNING! Never refill a fuel container
in the bed of any vehicle. Fire may result
from a build-up of static electricity. The discharge of this build-up while refueling
can cause a spark and ignite the gasoline.
