Fuel and engine oil
Place the product on a stable, level surface. We recommend > laying a non-ammable sheet under the product.
Mix a regular-grade unleaded petrol and a quality engine oil for > air cooled 2 stroke engines in a suitable container (Fig. 1). Use an anti-oxidant added quality oil expressly labelled for air- > cooled 2 stroke engine use (JASO FC GRADE OIL or ISO EGC GRADE). Do not use BIA or TWC (2 stroke water-cooling type) mixed oil. > The recommended mixing ratio for petrol:oil is 40:1. > Unscrew and remove the fuel tank cap (10). >
Fill correctly mixed fuel/oil into the tank using a fuel funnel tted > with a lter to avoid debris entering the tank. Do not overll.
Leave a minimum 5 mm of space between the top of the fuel and the inside edge of the tank (11) to allow for expansion (Fig. 2).
This product is equipped with a 2-stroke engine, the fuel and oil tank are combined and it is essential to ll a fuel-oil mixture before operating this product. Observe the technical specications for

NOTE: Fuel and oil deteriorate over time. It may be difcult
to start the engine if you use fuel which has been kept for more than 30 days.
Towards the end of the season, it is advisable to put only as much fuel in the tank as you need for each use, since it
should be completely used up before storing the product. Empty remaining fuel from the tank when storing the product for over 30 days.
