Fuelling
Use fresh unleaded fuel mixed with 2-stroke air-cooled engine oil (40:1) for best
results.
Use mixing ratios in Section Fuel Mixing Table below.
WARNING.
Never use straight fuel in your unit. This will cause permanent engine
damage and void the manufacturer’s warranty for that product. Never use a fuel
mixture that has been stored for over 30 days.
WARNING.
2-stroke lubricant must be a premium grade oil for 2-stroke air cooled
engines mixed at a 40:1 ratio. It is recommended NOT to use pre mixed fuels from
service stations as these are often for water cooled 2 stroke engines. If insufficient
lubrication is the cause of engine damage, it voids the manufacturer’s engine warranty.
