Take care when handling gasoline.
Avoid direct contact with the skin and
avoid inhaling fuel vapor. When filling at
the pump, first remove the container
from your vehicle and place the
container on the ground before filling. To
reduce the risk of sparks from static
discharge and resulting fire and/or
explosion, do not fill fuel containers that
are sitting in or on a vehicle or trailer.
The container should be kept tightly
closed in order to limit the amount of
moisture that gets into the mixture.
The machine’s fuel tank should be
cleaned as necessary.

Fuel mix ages
If not using STIHL MotoMix, only mix
sufficient fuel for a few days of work, not
to exceed 30 days of storage. Store in
approved fuel-containers only. When
mixing, pour oil into the container first,
and then add gasoline. Close the
container and shake it vigorously by
hand to ensure proper mix of oil and
gasoline.
