FUEL; MIXING PETROL AND OIL
IMPORTANT:
The engine used on this Handheld Blower is of a two-stroke design. The internal
moving parts of the engine, i.e., crankshaft bearings, piston pin bearings and piston to cylinder wall
contact surfaces, require oil mixed with the petrol for lubrication. Failure to add oil to the petrol or
failure to mix oil with the petrol at the appropriate ratio will cause major engine damage which will
void your warranty. For your fuel premix, only use a quality oil designed for two-stroke air-cooled
engine.
FUEL MIXTURE:
Always use a good quality two-stroke, air-cooled engine oil mixed at a ratio of 25
~
50:1.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:
Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container approved for petrol. Mark
the container to identify it as fuel mix for the Handheld Blower. Use regular unleaded petrol and fill
the container with half the required amount of petrol. Pour the correct amount of oil into the con-
tainer then add the remaining amount of petrol. Close the container tightly and shake it momentarily
to evenly mix the oil and the petrol before filling the fuel tank on the Handheld Blower.
NOTE:
1. Never mix petrol and oil directly in the Handheld Blower fuel tank.
2. Do not use National Marine Manufacturer’s Association (NMMA) or BIA certified oils. This type
of two-stroke engine oil does not have the proper additives for air-cooled, two-stroke engines
and can cause engine damages.
3. Do not use automotive motor oil. This type of oil does not have the proper additives for air-
cooled, two-stroke engines and can cause engine damage.
When refilling the Handheld Blower fuel tank, clean around the fuel tank cap to prevent dirt and
debris for entering the tank during cap removal. Always shake the premix fuel container momen-
tarily before filling the fuel tank.
Always use a spout or funnel when fueling to reduce fuel spillage. Only fill the tank to within 6 ~ 13
mm (1/4 ~ 1/2 inch) from the top of the tank. Avoid filling to the top of the tank filler neck.
