4.5.4- To preserve your engine life, avoid:
1. Fuel with no oil (raw gasoline): it will cause severe damage to the internal engine parts very
quickly.
2. Gasohol: it can cause deterioration of rubber and/or plastic parts and disruption of engine
lubrication.
3. Oil for 4-cycle engine use: it can cause spark plug fouling, exhaust port blocking, or piston ring
sticking.
4. Mixed fuels which have been left unused for a period of one month or more may clog the
carburetor and result in the engine failing to operate properly.
5. In the case of storing the product for a long period of time, clean the fuel tank after rendering it
empty. Next, activate the engine and empty the carburetor of the composite fuel.
6. In the case of scrapping the used mixed oil container, scrap it only at an authorized repository site.

and then pull
the starter again to start the engine.
After engine starts, wait for 10 sec, then move choke lever to third position

7. Allow the engine to warm up pulling on the throttle lever slightly.
Attention! When you attempt to start the machine for the first time or if the tank is completely empty,
you may have to pull the starter rope several times. If the engine fails to start, repeat above steps.
