Fuel
CAUTION! The machine is equipped with a two-stroke
engine and must always been run using a mixture of
gasoline and two-stroke engine oil. It is important to
accurately measure the amount of oil to be mixed to
ensure that the correct mixture is obtained. When mixing
small amounts of fuel, even small inaccuracies can
drastically affect the ratio of the mixture.
Gasoline
CAUTION! Always use high grade oil mixed gasoline
(minimum 87 RON).
•
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded
gasoline.
•
The lowest recommended octane rating is 87. If you
run the engine on lower octane rating than 87 so-
called “knocking“ can occur. This leads to an
increased engine temperature, which can result in a
serious engine breakdown.
•
When working at continuous high revs a higher octane
rating is recommended.
Two-stroke oil
•
For best results and performance use HUSQVARNA
two-stroke oil, which is specially formulated for our
two-stroke engines. Mixture 1:50 (2%).
•
If HUSQVARNA two-stroke oil is not available, you
may use another two-stroke oil of good quality that is
intended for air cooled engines. Contact your dealer
when selecting an oil.
•
Never use two-stroke oil intended for water-cooled
outboard engines, sometimes referred to as outboard
oil.
•
Never use oil intended for four-stroke engines.
Mixing
•
Always mix the gasoline and oil in a clean container
intended for fuel.
•
Always start by filling half the amount of the gasoline
to be used. Then add the entire amount of oil. Mix
(shake) the fuel mixture. Add the remaining amount of
gasoline.
•
Mix (shake) the fuel mixture thoroughly before filling
the machine’s fuel tank.
•
Do not mix more than one month’s supply of fuel at a
time.
•
If the machine is not used for some time the fuel tank
should be emptied and cleaned.
•
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded
gasoline.
!
WARNING! Always ensure there is
adequate ventilation when handling fuel.
