Mixing the petrol and oil
Always mix the petrol and oil in a clean petrol can.
First add the oil and then the correct amount of
petrol. Then shake the can thoroughly. Shake the
can before every refilling.
NOTICE During long term storage of two-stroke
mixture, the oil and petrol can separate. Never mix
more fuel than you intend to use within two weeks.
Filling
WARNING Fuel hazard
The fuel (petrol and oil) is extremely flammable
and petrol fumes can explode when ignited,
causing serious injury or death.
►
Protect your skin from contact with the fuel.
►
Never remove the filler cap and do not fill the
fuel tank when the machine is hot.
►
Never smoke when filling the fuel tank or when
working with the machine or servicing it.
►
Avoid spilling fuel and wipe off any fuel spilled
on the machine.
►
Fill the fuel tank outdoors or in a clean and well
ventilated place, free from sparks and open
flames.
Filling procedure
1. Stop the engine and let it cool down before
filling the tank.
2. The machine must be in an upright position
when filling it with fuel.
3. Release the filler cap slowly to let any pressure
escape.
4. Never overfill the tank. It is possible due to the
movement of the fuel within the tank to have
fuel at a higher level than the tank cap, which
can lead to a spillage of fuel if the tank cap is
opened. This can be avoided by opening the
tank cap, only when the machine is tilted and
the tank cap is at the fuel tanks highest point.
5. Make sure that the filler cap is screwed on
when the machine is used.
