1. Select clear flat ground for fueling.
2. Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from the fueling point before starting the
engine.
3. Stop the engine before refueling the unit. At that time, be sure to sufficiently agitate
the mixed gasoline in the container.
RECOMMENDED MIXING RATIO PETROL 25 : OIL 1
• Pay attention to agitation.
1. Measure out the quantities of petrol and oil to be mixed.
2. Put some of the petrol into a clean, approved fuel container.
3. Pour in all of the oil and mix thoroughly.
4. Pour in the rest of the petrol and mix thoroughly again. As some oils may be more
difficult to mix depending on the oil ingredients, sufficient mixing is necessary to help
improve the engines life. Be careful that if mixing is insufficient there is increased danger
of early piston seizing due to lack of lubrication.
5. Indicate the contents inside the container by placing a clear indication on the outside
of the container for easy identification and to avoid mixing up with petrol or any other
containers.
1. Untwist and remove the fuel cap. Rest the cap on a dustless place.
2. Put fuel into the fuel tank to 80% of the full capacity.
3. Fasten the fuel cap securely and wipe up any fuel spillage around the unit.
1. FUEL WITH NO OIL (PURE PETROL) - It WILL cause severe damage to the internal engine
parts immediately.
2. GASOHOL - It can cause deterioration of rubber and/or plastic parts and disrupt engine
lubrication.
3. OIL FOR 4-STROKE ENGINES - It can cause spark plug fouling, exhaust blockages or
piston ring sticking.
4. Mixed fuels which have been left unused for a period of one month or more may clog the
carburetor and result in the engine failing to operate properly.
5. In the case of storing the product for a long period of time, clean the fuel tank after
completely emptying it. Start the engine to empty the carburetor of any remaining fuel.
6. In the case of disposing of used mixing containers, only scrap it at authorized sites.
