Mixing Fuel

WARNING!

Minimize the risk of fire, burns, and personal injury!

STOP engine before refueling.

ALWAYS allow the engine to cool before refueling.

ALWAYS open the fuel cap slowly to allow any pressure build-up in the tank to release fuel vapor slowly.

ALWAYS transport and store fuels in an approved container.

Avoid overfilling and wipe-up all spilled fuel. Move the engine at least 3 meters from the fueling point, storage area, and other readily flammable materials before restarting.

ALWAYS inspect the unit for fuel leaks before each use. During each refill, make sure there are no fuel leaks around the fuel cap and/or tank. If a fuel leak is evident, stop using the unit immediately. Fuel leaks must be repaired before using the unit.

Never smoke or light any fires near the engine or fuel source.

NEVER place any flammable material near the engine or muffler.

NEVER operate the engine without the muffler in good working condition.

Filling the Fuel Tank

CAUTION!

Never use any fuel containing more than 10% alcohol by volume! Some gasolines contain alcohol as an oxygenate! Oxygenated fuels may cause increased operating tem- peratures. Under certain conditions, alcohol-based fuels may also reduce the lubricating qualities of some mix- ing oils.

Generic oils and some outboard motor oils may not be intended for use in high-performance air cooled 2-cycle engines, and should never be used in your Shindaiwa engine!

Use only fresh, clean unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of 87 or higher.
