PREPARING FOR YOUR FIRST FLIGHT
3.1
Fuel and Oil
FLY PRODUCTS recommends the use super gasoline and synthetic oil at 2,5 %.
Mix fresh gas and oil before each flying session.
Store your fuel/oil mixture in an approved, sealed container. Dispose of fuel/oil mixture that is older
than 2 weeks.
Use only fresh fuel and oil, and use clean containers, funnels, hoses, etc.
To fill the fuel tank, remove the fuel tank by unscrewing the fuel tank cap . Take care not to get dirt,
dust, etc. onto the fuel pickup.
It is recommended that the fuel be poured into the tank using a straining-type of funnel.
Fill the tank with the desired amount of fuel.. Tighten the fuel cap securely.
CAUTION:
Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately, as the fuel/oil mixture is highly flammable, and an
in-flight fire would be catastrophic.
Also, the oil will leave a residue, which will attract and retain dust and dirt.
WARNING!
Use common sense when refueling. Do not refuel a hot or running engine,
do not smoke or allow on-lookers to smoke while refueling. Do not refuel near heat or open flame
