FUELLING
This product is equipped with a 2-stroke engine which requires 2-stroke lubricating oil to be pre-mixed
with petrol. Use only genuine Lawn Star 2-stroke engine oil (Part No. 90-20000) and use lead-free petrol
(Octane 95). Mix both thoroughly (as per fuel-mix ratio) in a separate container. Always prepare the fuel-
mixture and refuel the blower outside in a well-ventilated environment. Do not smoke! Do not use marine
or automotive 2-stroke oil.
Oil/fuel mix ratio for normal 2-stroke engine oil 1:25 (4%) e.g. 40 ml of oil per 1 litre of petrol or 200ml
of oil per 5 litres of petrol.
Always stop the engine before refuelling. Do not smoke or light any flames while refuelling. Wipe off
any fuel that may have spilled. Start the engine away from the place where it was refuelled. Ensure the
tank cap is tightened properly.
