• Exhaust emission are controlled by the funda-
mental engine parameters and components (eq.,
carburation, ignition timing and port timing) with-
out addition of any major hardware or the introduc-
tion of an inert material during combustion.
• These engines are certified to operate on unleaded
gasoline.
• If you use a gasoline of a lower octane value than pre-
scribed, there is a danger that the engine tempera-
ture may rise and an engine problem such as piston
seizing may consequently occur.
• Unleaded gasoline is recommended to reduce the
contamination of the air for the sake of your health and
the environment.
• Poor quality gasolines or oils may damage sealing
rings, fuel lines or fuel tank of the engine.
■ HOW TO MIX FUEL
WARNING
• Pay attention to agitation.
1. Measure out the quantities of gasoline and oil to be
mixed.
2. Put some of the gasoline into a clean, approved fuel
container.
3. Pour in all of the oil and agitate well.
4. Pour in the rest of gasoline and agitate again for at
least one minute. As some oils may be difficult to
agitate depending on oil ingredients, sufficient agi-
tation is necessary for the engine to last long. Be
careful that, if the agitation is insufficient, there is an
increased danger of early piston seizing due to ab-
normally lean mixture.
5. Put a clear indication on the outside of the container
to avoid mixing up with gasoline or other containers.
6. Indicate the contents on outside of container for easy
identification.
