Filling with engine fuel
WARNING! Always switch the engine off before fuelling.
Never add fuel to a machine with a running or hot
engine. Move at least 30ft. (9m) from the refuelling site
before starting the engine. Do not smoke!
IMPORTANT! Keep the bottle flat while filling and use a
suitable funnel.
This product is powered by a 2-stroke engine and requires pre-
mixing of petrol and 2-stroke oil. Mix a high quality 2-stroke
engine oil, according to JASO FC classic. Do not use automotive
oil or 2-stroke outboard oil. DO NOT mix quantities larger than
usable in a 30-day period.
Danger of injury! Fuel is explosive!
Turn off and cool the motor down before filling the tank with
fuel. You must observe all safety instructions relating to
handling fuel.
Risk of damage!
The machine is supplied without 2-stroke motor oil.
1a. Fuel mixture
1 litre (1000ml) petrol: 25cc (25ml) 2-stroke engine oil (40:1
ratio).
Using a funnel and keeping the bottle level, pour the fuel to the
line marked PETROL; and pour engine oil to the line marked OIL.
Shake vigorously to mix the two products prior to pouring into
the tank of the brush cutter.
1b. Filling tank
Clean the surface around the fuel cap to prevent contamination.
Loosen the fuel cap slowly, remove and rest the cap on a clean
surface. Carefully pour fuel into the tank, avoiding spillage. Prior
to replacing the fuel cap, clean and inspect the seal located
inside the fuel cap. Immediately replace the fuel cap and hand
tighten. Wipe up any fuel spillage.
NOTE: It is normal for smoke to be emitted from a new engine
after first use.
