Fuel Mixture Chart 25:1
Mixing Instructions
IMPORTANT: Never mix gasoline and oil directly in the Multi-cutter fuel tank.
1. Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container approved for gasoline.
2. Mark the container to identify it as fuel mix for the Multi-cutter.
3. Use regular unleaded gasoline and fill the container with half the required amount of gasoline.
4. Pour the correct amount of oil into the container then add the remaining amount of gasoline.
5. Close the container tightly and shake it momentarily to evenly mix the oil and the gasoline before filling
the tank on the Multi-cutter.
6. When refilling the Multi-cutter fuel tank, clean around the fuel tank cap to stop dirt and debris from
entering the tank during cap removal.
7. Always shake the premix fuel container momentarily before filling the fuel tank.
8. Always use a spout or funnel when fueling to reduce fuel spillage.
9. Fill the tank only to within 10mm from the top of the tank. Avoid filling to the top of the tank filler neck.
Starting and Stopping
Before Starting the Engine
1. Fill the fuel tank as instructed in the Before Operation section of
this manual.
2. Rest the Multi-cutter on the ground.
3. Make sure the cutting attachment is clear of any broken glass,
nails, wire, rocks or other debris.
4. Keep all bystanders, children and animals away from the working
area.
Cold Starting Procedure
The carburetor on this engine is equipped with a fuel primer and a
choke system.
To start a “cold” engine properly, perform the following procedure:
1. Pump the primer bulb until fuel can be seen flowing through
the fuel return line to the fuel tank. Flowing fuel should be
almost clear, not foamy or full of bubbles.
2. Turn the choke lever to the Close “” position.
3. With the stop switch “ON” , and the throttle trigger positioned at
Fast-idle start position, pull the starter grip. After the engine is
started, turn the choke lever to the Open “” position. Then
squeeze and release the throttle trigger to allow it to return to the
idle position.
