are sitting in or on a vehicle or trailer.
The container should be kept tightly
closed in order to limit the amount of
moisture that gets into the mixture.
The machine‘s fuel tank should be
cleaned as necessary.
Fuel mix ages
Only mix sufficient fuel for a few days
work, not to exceed 3 months of storage.
Store in approved fuel-containers only.
When mixing, pour oil into the container
first, and then add gasoline. Close the
container and shake it vigorously by
hand to ensure proper mixing of the oil
with the fuel.
Dispose of empty mixing-oil containers
only at authorized disposal locations.
Preparations
N Before fueling, clean the filler cap
and the area around it to ensure that
no dirt falls into the tank.
Always thoroughly shake the mixture in
the canister before fueling your
machine.
N Position the machine so that the
filler cap is facing up.
In order to reduce the risk of fire and
personal injury from escaping gas vapor
and fumes, remove the fuel filler cap
carefully so as to allow any pressure
build-up in the tank to release slowly
