FUEL
WARNING
Gasoline is very flammable. Avoid smoking or bringing any flame or
sparks near fuel. Make sure to stop the engine and allow it cool before
refueling the unit. Select outdoor bare ground for fueling and move at
least 3 m (10 ft) away from the fueling point before starting the engine.
RECOMMENDED MIXING RATIO
GASOLINE 25 : OIL 1
(when using genuine oll)
Exhaust emlsslon are controlled by the fundamental englne parameters and
components (eq., carburatlon, lgnltlon tlmlng and port tlmlng) wlthout
addition of any major hardware or the introduction of an inert material
during combustion. These engines are certified to operate on unleaded
gasoline.
lf you use a gasoline of a lower octane value than prescribed, there is a
danger that the engine temperature may rise and an engine problem such
as piston seizing may consequently occur.
Unleaded gasoline is recommended to reduce the contamination of the air
for the sake of your health and the environment.
Poor quality gasolines or oils may damage sealing rings. fuel lines or fuel
tank of the engine.
HOWTO MIX FUEL
WARNING
Pay attention to agitation.
1. Measure out the quantities of gasoline and oil to be mixed.
2. Put sorne of the gasoline into a clean, approved fuel container.
3. Pour in ali of the oil and agitate well.
4. Pour in the rest of gasoline and agitate again for at leas! one minute. As
sorne oils may be difficult to agitate depending on oil ingredients, sufficient
agitation is necessary for the engine to last long. Be careful that, if the
agitation is insufficient, there is an increased danger of early piston seizing
due to abnormally lean mixture.
5. Pul a clear indication on the outside of the container to avoid mixing up
with gasoline or other containers.
6. lndicate the contents on outside of container for easy identification.
