*Engine life is reduced. Should you be forced to used this kind of fuel, change of engine oil every
50 ight hours is crucial. Please consult the manufacturer on which type of oil to use.
IMPORTANT!
Four-stroke engines should only be powered by unleaded fuel, for lead sedimentation inside the en-
gine shortens its life. Provided you are unable to use unleaded fuel, make sure engine oil and the oil
lter are replaced every 50 ight hours.
