The recommended mixing ratio for petrol : oil is 40:1.

Unscrew and remove the fuel tank cap.
6)
Fill correctly mixed fuel/oil into the tank using a fuel funnel
(NO SUPPLIED) fitted with a filter to avoid debris entering
the
tank. Do not overfill. Leave a minimum 5 mm of space
between the top of the fuel and the inside edge of the tank to
allow for expansion.
7)
Avoid spilling and overfilling the tank. Wipe up spilled fuel
with a soft cloth and refit the fuel tank cap.
8)
Always dispose of fuel, used oil and soiled objects
according to local regulations (see section “ENVIRONMENTAL
INFORMATION ”).
NOTE: Fuel and oil deteriorate over time. It may be
difficult to start the engine if you use fuel which has
been kept for more than 30 days. Towards the end of the
season, it is advisable to put only as much fuel in the tank
as you need for each mowing of the lawn, since it should
be completely used up before storing the product. Empty
remaining fuel from the tank when storing the product for
over 30 days.
