Always shut off engine before fueling. Never add fuel to a machine with a running or
hot engine. Move at least 30ft.(9 m) from refueling site before starting engine. Do not smoke!

It is crucial that the fuel is mixed correctly - wrongly mixed fuel can cease the
engine and voids the warranty. Carefully read these instructions, use the supplied bottle for
mixing. When filling the mixing bottle, use a funnel while keeping the bottle flat to ensure a good
