7. Fuel
■ FUEL
WARNING
• Gasoline is very flammable. Avoid smoking or
bringing any flame or sparks near fuel. Make sure
to stop the engine and allow it cool before refueling the unit. Select outdoor bare ground for fueling and move at least 3 m (10 ft) away from the
fueling point before starting the engine.
• The Zenoah engines are lubricated by oil specially
formulated for air-cooled 2-cycle gasoline engine use.
If Zenoah oil is not available, use an anti-oxidant added
quality oil expressly labeled for air-cooled 2-cycle
engine use (JASO FC GRADE OIL or ISO EGC
GRADE).
• Do not use BIA or TCW (2-stroke water-cooling type)
mixed oil.
■ RECOMMENDED MIXING RATIO
GASOLINE 50 : OIL 1
(when using ZENOAH genuine oil)
• 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.
• Make sure to use gasoline with a minimum octane
number of 89RON (USA/Canada: 87AL).
• 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
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 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.
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.
■ 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
1. Select bare ground for fueling.
2. Move at least 3 meters (10 feet ) 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:
1. FUEL WITH NO OIL (RAW GASOLINE) – It will cause
severe damage to the internal engine parts very
quickly.
2. GASOHOL – It can cause deterioration of rubber and/
or plastic parts and disruption of engine lubrication.
3. OIL FOR 4-CYCLE ENGINE USE – It can cause spark
plug fouling, exhaust port blocking, or piston ring sticking.
4. Mixed fuels which have been left unused for a period
of one month or more may clog the carburetor and
result in the engine failing to operate properly.
5. 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.
6. In the case of scrapping the used mixed oil container,
scrap it only at an authorized repository site.
NOTE
• As for details of quality assurance, read the description in the section Limited Warranty carefully. Moreover, normal wear and change in product with no functional influence are not covered by the warranty. Also,
be careful that, if the usage in the instruction manual
is not observed as to the mixed gasoline, etc. described therein, it may not be covered by the warranty.
• 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.
GB-10
Page 11
8. Chemical filling
WARNING
• Chemical substances should be handled correctly,
observing the precautions marked on the container.
Some chemicals are extremely hazardous to humans
and animals, and handling errors can cause serious
poisoning or even fatal accidents.
• When not in use, chemical substance containers
should be stored separately from other containers out
of the reach of children.
IMPORTANT
• Do not fill the chemical tank with undiluted fluid. This
could cause the gasket and valves to lose their durability.

• If the air cleaner element is blocked, the efficiency of
the engine will be reduced. In addition, the engine
interior will suffer abnormal wear if operated without
the element or if continually operated with a distorted
or damaged element fitted.
a. Fuel filter
IMPORTANT
• If the fuel filter is clogged, the engine speed may be
limited or speed fluctuations may occur.
• If the engine is operated without a fuel filter, dirt will
accumulate in the carburetor and cause it to malfunction.
■ Spark plug
WARNING
• Do not touch the spark plug with your bare hands
immediately after operation, as there is the risk of
burns due to high temperature.
• After every 50 hours of operation, detach the spark
plug and remove dirt from the electrodes with a wire
brush or similar.
• The correct electrode gap is 0.6 to 0.7mm.

10. Maintenance
• When replacing plugs, please use designated items.
NGK (BPMR7A)
IMPORTANT
• If too much fuel is absorbed or poor quality oil is used,
the spark plug electrodes become dirty, making the
engine harder to start.
• Note that using any spark plug other than those designated may result in the engine failing to operate
properly or in the engine becoming overheated and
damaged.
•To install the spark plug, first turn the plug until it is
finger tight, then tighten it a quarter turn more with a
socket wrench.
TIGHTENING TORQUE:
14.7 to 21.6 N.m.
(150 to 220 kgf-cm)
■ Adjusting the engine
Although the engine is adjusted on leaving the factory,
after repeated use it may sometimes require readjustment or maintenance. Please consult your original supplier regarding inspections and maintenance other than
those shown below.
NOTE
•Warm up the engine before adjusting the idling speed.
• Throttle wire play
Throttle wire play should be 1 to 2 mm. After completely returning the throttle lever, take the throttle wire
at the carburetor end in your fingers and give a light
tug. If the play is too great or too small, readjust the
position of the wire retaining nut. Loosen the lock nut
and turn the wire retaining nut clockwise (screw in) to
increase the play and counter-clockwise (unscrew)
to reduce it. After adjusting, please fasten the wire
retaining nut by tightening the lock nut.

WARNING
• Idling speed
If the engine stalls or the pump continues to move
when in idling position with the throttle lever completely
lowered, readjust the engine speed using the idle
speed adjuster on the left of the carburetor.
a. idle speed adjuster
b. increase speed
c. reduce speed
•Turn the idling adjustment screw:
— counter-clockwise to reduce engine speed
— clockwise to increase engine speed
• Inspect periodically, the muffler for loose fasteners, any damage or corrosion. If any sign of exhaust leakage is found, stop using the machine
and have it repaired immediately in the repair specialty store.
• Note that failing to do so may result in the engine
catching on fire.
INTAKE AIR COOLING VENT
WARNING
• Check the intake air cooling vent after every 25
hours of use for blockage.
■ PERIODICAL SERVICE POINTS
1. CYLINDER FINS
Periodically check and clean the cylinder fins in the repair specialty store.
IMPORTANT
• If waste gets stuck and causes blockage around the
intake air cooling vent, it may cause the engine to overheat, and that in turn may cause mechanical failure

11. Storage
WARNING
• When draining fuel, please be careful not to spill it. If
fuel is spilt, wipe off thoroughly. In addition, please be
sure to close the storage container cap tightly.
IMPORTANT
• If fuel is left in the engine for protracted periods, the
inside of the carburetor may become clogged and
cause engine malfunction (faulty starting and insufficient output).
• During storage, slightly loosen the cap of the chemical fluid tank. If screwed too tightly, the gasket may
become distorted.
On completion of all work procedures, when not planning to use again for a protracted period please carry
out the following pre-storage care, to prevent trouble
caused by time-lapse changes.

1. Clean the chemical fluid tank and nozzle (see page
11).
2. Remove dirt from the sprayer, inspect it for any damage or looseness, and, if any abnormality is found,
correct it thoroughly in preparation for the next time
you use the unit.
3. Drain the fuel tank.
4. Start the engine, and leave it in idling condition until
all the fuel inside the carburetor is spent and the engine comes to a natural stop.
5. Remove the spark plug and put a few drops (1 to 2
cc) of 2-cycle oil inside the engine. After pulling the
starter rope 2 or 3 times, return the spark plugs to
their original position and stop in compressed position.
6. After oiling the throttle lever and other metal parts with
anti-corrosive oil, cover the sprayer and store indoors
in a low-humidity location.
12. Troubleshooting guide
Case 1. Starting failure
CHECK PROBABLE CAUSES ACTION
fuel tank → incorrect fuel → drain it and use correct fuel
fuel filter → fuel filter is clogged → clean
carburetor adjustment screw → out of normal range → adjust to normal range
sparking (no spark) → spark plug is fouled/wet → clean/dry
→ plug gap is incorrect → correct (GAP: 0.6 to 0.7 mm)
spark plug → disconnected → retighten
Case 2. Engine starts but does not keep running/hard re-starting
CHECK PROBABLE CAUSES ACTION
fuel tank → incorrect fuel or staled fuel → drain it and use correct fuel
carburetor adjustment screw → out of normal range → adjust to normal range
muffler, cylinder (exhaust port) → carbon is built-up → consult with the repair specialty store
air cleaner → clogged with dust → wash
cylinder fin, fan cover → clogged with dust → consult with the repair specialty store
