Fuel and lubrication
•
Fuel
Use regular grade unleaded gasoline mixed with
Talon 25:1 custom 2-cycle engine oil for best results.
Use mixing ratios in
FUEL MIXING TABLE.
Warning:
Never use straight gasoline in your
unit. This will cause permanent engine damage and
void the manufacturer’s warranty for that product.
Never use a fuel mixture that has been stored for
over 90 days.
Warning:
Do not use any 2-cycle oil product with
a recommended mixing ratio of 100:1. If insufficient
lubrication is the cause of engine damage, it voids
the manufacturer’s engine warran
ty.
• MIXING FUEL
Add the oil to an approved fuel container followed by
the gasoline to allow incoming gasoline to mix with
oil. Shake the container to ensure thorough mix.
Warning:
Lack of lubrication voids engine
warranty. Gasolilne and oil must be mixed at 40:1.
