6.1 Mixing the fuel
Note! Be precise with the mixture.
1. Measure out the petrol and oil precisely before mixing.
2. Pour a small amount of the petrol into a clean fuel can.
3. Pour in all of the oil and shake the fuel can.
4. Pour in the rest of the petrol and shake the fuel can for at least a minute. Certain oils do not

engine will last longer if the fuel is well mixed, if the fuel is not mixed properly the mixture
will be too lean and the engine may be damaged.
5. Labelthefuelcanclearly,toavoidtheriskofmisidentication.
6. Fuel containing oil is only intended for 2-stroke engines, pure petrol is for 4-stroke engines,
it is therefore very important to label the fuel cans clearly.

Warning!
Only use fuel containing oil for 2-stroke engines, using pure petrol without the addition
of oil will soon cause engine damage which is not covered by the guarantee.
6.2 Refuelling the grass trimmer
1. Unscrew and remove the fuel cap.
2. Fill with fuel until the tank is roughly 80% full.
3. Replace and tighten the fuel cap then wipe up any spilt fuel on or around the grass trimmer.
Warning!
1. Refuel outdoors and on the ground.
2. Always move at least 3 metres away from the refuelling site before starting the trimmer.
3. Switch off the grass trimmer and let it cool before refuelling it. Only refuel when you are
sure that the fuel can contains 2-stroke fuel!
7. Starting the engine
Note! Pull the starter handle straight out, if you pull at an angle the starter cord will rub on the
sleeve and soon wear out. Keep hold of the starting handle after pulling it and allow it to return
slowly. Never let go of the starting handle straight after pulling it, it could get tangled or break
something on the trimmer.
Note! See section “Troubleshooting” if the trimmer doesn’t start after several attempts.
7.1 Starting the engine from cold
Cut the trimmer line to a length of 13 cm before starting to
reduce the load while the trimmer warms up.
1. Place the grass trimmer on a level surface.
