Two-Stroke Fuel
Fuel is very flammable. Do not smoke or bring any flame or sparks near fuel.
Always stop the engine and allow it to cool before refuelling.
Refuel outdoors on bare ground, restart 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 manufacturer’s warranty.
Use fresh, unleaded petrol (95 RON) and semi-synthetic oil specially made for high performance
two-stroke engines. Mix in a ratio of 40 parts petrol to 1 part of 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, and Ethanol Shield Fuel Stabiliser
to protect your MITOX® engine against the
harmful effectsof Ethanol.
