• Exhaust emission are controlled by the fundamental engine parameters and components (eq., carburation, ignition timing and port timing) without addition of any major hardware or the introduction 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 prescribed, there is a danger that the engine temperature 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 a

gitation.

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 r

est of gasoline and agitate again for at least one minute. As some oils may be difficult to agitate depending on oil ingredients, sufficient agitation 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 abnormally lean mixture.

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.

■ FUELING THE

UNIT

1. Untwist and remove the fuel cap. Rest the cap on a dustless place.

2. Put fuel into the fuel tank to 80% of the full capacity.

3. Fasten the fuel cap securely and wipe up any fuel spillage around the unit.

WARNING

Select flat and bare ground for fueling.

2. Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from the fueling point before starting the engine.

3. Stop the engine before refueling the unit. At that time, be sure to sufficiently agitate the mixed gasoline in the container.

■ FOR YOUR ENGINE LIFE, AVOID:

FUEL WITH NO OIL (RAW GASOLINE) – It will cause severe damage to the internal engine parts very quickly.

4. OIL FOR 4-CYCLE ENGINE USE – It can cause spark plug fouling, exhaust port blocking, or piston ring sticking.

5. Mixed fuels which have been left unused for a pe- riod of one month or more may clog the carburetor and result in the engine failing to operate properly.

6. In the case of storing the product for a long period of time, clean the fuel tank after rendering it empty. Next, activate the engine and empty the carburetor of the composite fuel.

7. In the case of scrapping the used mixed oil container, scrap it only at an authorized repository site.
