PETROL
Use branded 89 octane or higher unleaded petrol
known to be of good quality.
Fuel mixtures with a rate other than 25:1 may cause
damage to the engine. Ensure that the mixture ratio
is correct.
STORING FUEL
Store fuel only in a clean, safe, approved container.
Familiarise with and observe local ordinances on type
and location of storage containers.
IMPORTANT
2-stroke fuel may separate. Shake the fuel container
thoroughly before each use. Stored fuel ages. Do not
mix more fuel than you expect to use within a month.
FUEL MIXTURE
Inspect the fuel tank making sure that it is clean and fill
with fresh fuel. Use a mixture with a ratio of 25:1.
PREPARING FOR OPERATION
DO NOT MIX PETROL AND OIL DIRECTLY IN THE
FUEL TANK.
IMPORTANT: Failure to observe the instructions for
the preparation of the proper fuel mix may cause dam-
age to the engine.
1. When preparing fuel mixture, mix only the amount
needed for the job you are to do. Do not use fuel
that has been stored longer than two months. Fuel
mixture stored longer than this will cause starting
problems and poor performance. If fuel mix has
been stored longer than two months, it should be
disposed of and replaced by fresh mixture.
WARNING DANGER
2. Never fill the fuel tank to the very brim (only up to
3/4 of the tank).
3. Do not fill the tank with fuel in a closed, non-venti-
lated area.
4. Do not refuel the unit close to an open flame or
sparks.
5. Make sure to wipe off spilled fuel before attempting
to start the engine.
6. Do not attempt to refuel a hot engine.
CHECKPOINTS BEFORE OPERATION:
1. Check for loose bolts, nuts and fittings.
2. Check the air cleaner for dirt. Clean the air filter of
all dirt, etc. before operation.
3. Check the protection cover for its correct fit.
4. Check the fuel tank for any leaks.
