• Use a clean approved container to store and mix your unleaded petrol (ULP) 2 stroke fuel mix in before decanting into the
fuel tank.
• If contaminated (dirty) or old (stale) fuel is used any damage caused will not be covered under warranty.
OIL
To operate, this chainsaw requires 2 stroke oil to be mixed with the unleaded fuel, not supplied. If the chainsaw does not have
the correct amount of oil mixed into the fuel the motor will be damaged and not covered under warranty.
Oil type: 2 stroke motor oil
Oil to fuel mix: 25:1
40ml 2 Stroke oil : 1 Litre Unleaded Fuel
• Always use fresh clean 2 stroke oil.
• If contaminated (dirty) or old (stale) 2 stroke oil is used any damage caused will not be covered under warranty.
MIXING 2-STROKE FUEL
1. Use only unleaded petrol (ULP) and 2 stroke oil.
Ratio 25:1. 40mls 2 stroke oil to 1 litre unleaded fuel.
2. Ensure you use clean fresh unleaded petrol (ULP) + 2 stroke
oil.
3. Always wear approved breathing protection when mixing
fuel. Always mix fuel in a well ventilated area, never
indoors.

stroke petrol before decanting into the fuel tank.
5. Ensure fuel / oil is mixed well.
Important
Experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol
or using ethanol or methanol)can attract moisture which leads
to separation and formation of acids during storage.
Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in
storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage for 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank,
start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburettor
are empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See STORAGE section for
additional information. Always use fresh clean new unleaded
petrol and new clean 2 stroke oil. To prevent possible restarting
problems avoid running the fuel tank dry. This will help to extend
engine life.
