8. PREPARING THE HEDGE TRIMMER
8.3 FUELLING – FIGS. 1 – 2
This hedge trimmer is equipped with a 2 stroke air
cooled petrol engine.
This type of engine requires a mixture of fuel and oil
to perform and function. Failure to use the correct
oil, fuel or mixture ratio will cause permanent
damage to the engine. Only use fresh, clean, good
quality unleaded fuel mixed with a high quality 2
stroke oil.
Do not use any other types of oil e.g.
engine oil as this will cause damage to the
engine.
For synthetic oil or semi-synthetic, a mix ratio of 25:1
must be used. To mix a ratio of 25:1:
Add 0.250 litres (25ml) of 2 stroke oil into 1 litre
of unleaded fuel.
Attention:
Always handle fuel with caution.
Pour the fuel/oil mixture into a specifically
designed mixing receptacle before replacing
the cap and shaking gently.
Remove the fuel tank cap
by turning it
anti-clockwise. To prevent identification
problems or accidents the fuel tank cap is
stamped with the symbol .
With the aid of a funnel pour the fuel/oil
mixture into the fuel tank before replacing the
cap firmly. Avoid spillage and do not over fill.
Note:
Always mix and refuel in a well ventilated area away from sources of ignition.
Note:
Store fuel for short periods only and avoid mixing more than is required. Store in a container
specifically designed for petrochemical applications away from heat and direct sun light.
