fumes.
Two-Stroke Fuel
Refuel outdoors on bare ground, restart the engine at least 5m away from the refuelling stop.
The engine is lubricated by oil mixed into petrol. Prepare a mixture of Unleaded petrol and
semi-synthetic two-stroke oil that meets the specifications of: API TC, ISO-L-EGC, JASO FC (Low
Smoke) oil.
Recommended mixing ratio is 40:1
FUEL WITH NO OIL (RAW PETROL) will cause severe damage to the engine which is not
covered by
the
manufacturer's warranty.
Use fresh, unleaded petrol (90 RON) and semi-synthetic oil specially made for high performance
two-stroke engines. Mix in a ratio of 40 parts petrol to 1 part oil. By using two-stroke oil specially
made for two-stroke engines you will reduce the formation of ash and carbon deposits on the
spark plug, piston, exhaust muffler and cylinder as well as reducing emissions of harmful exhaust
gases.
Oil for 4-cycle engines should not be used as two-stroke lubrication oil as it can cause fouling of
the spark plug, exhaust port blocking, piston ring sticking and other internal engine damage.
NOTE
Due to increased Ethanol content in petrol we recommend the use
of B3C Ethanol Shield 2-Stroke Oil, or Ethanol Shield Fuel Stabiliser
to protect your MITOX® engine against the harmful effects of
Ethanol.
