FUELING ENGINE

WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly when refueling.

This engine is certified to operate on unleaded petrol. Before operation, petrol must be mixed with a good quality 2--cycle air--cooled engine oil designed to be mixed at a ratio of 40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 5 liters of unleaded petrol with 0,125 liter of oil. DO NOT USE auto- motive oil or marine oil. These oils will cause en- gine damage. When mixing fuel, follow instruc- tions printed on oil container. Once oil is added to petrol, shake container momentarily to assure that the fuel is thoroughly mixed. Always read and follow the safety rules relating to fuel before fueling your unit.

CAUTION: Never use straight petrol in your unit. This will cause permanent engine damage.

FUEL REQUIREMENTS

Use good quality unleaded petrol. The lowest recommended octane grade is 90 (RON).

IMPORTANT

Use of alcohol blended fuels (more than 10% al- cohol) can cause major engine performance and durability problems.

WARNING: Incorrect use of fuel and/ or lubricants will cause problems such as: improper clutch engagements, overheat- ing, vapor lock, power loss, lubrication defi- ciency, deterioration of fuel lines, gaskets and internal carburetor components, etc. Alcohol blended fuels will cause a high ab- sorption of moisture in the fuel/oil mixture, causing the separation of oil and fuel.
