CAUTION!
Some gasolines contain alcohol as
an oxygenate! Oxygenated fuels
may cause increased operating
temperatures. Under certain condi-
tions, alcohol-based fuels may also
reduce the lubricating qualities of
some mixing oils.
Never use any fuel containing more
than 10% alcohol by volume! Ge-
neric oils and some outboard motor
oils may not be intended for use in
high-performance air cooled 2-cycle
engines, and should never be used
in your Shindaiwa engine!
Mixing Fuel
Filling the Fuel Tank
1. Place the unit upright on the ground or
on a sturdy work surface, and wipe any
debris from around the fuel cap.
2. Remove the fuel cap.
3. Fill the tank with clean, fresh fuel.
4. Replace the cap, and wipe away any
spilled fuel before starting the engine.
WARNING!
Minimize the risk of fire,
burns, and personal injury!
STOP
engine before refueling.
ALWAYS
allow the engine to cool
before refueling.
ALWAYS
open the fuel cap slowly
to allow any pressure build-up
in the tank to release fuel vapor
slowly.
ALWAYS
transport and store fuels
in an approved container.
Avoid overfilling and wipe-up all
spilled fuel. Move the engine at
least 3 meters from the fueling
point, storage area, and other
readily flammable materials before
restarting.
ALWAYS
inspect the unit for fuel
leaks before each use. During
each refill, make sure there are no
fuel leaks around the fuel cap and/
or tank. If a fuel leak is evident,
stop using the unit immediately.
Fuel leaks must be repaired
before using the unit.
NEVER
smoke or light any fires
near the engine or fuel source.
NEVER
place any flammable
material near the engine or
muffler.
NEVER
operate the engine
without the muffler and spark
arrester in good working condition.
IMPORTANT!
Mix only enough fuel for your immediate
needs! If fuel must be stored longer
than 30-days, it should first be treated
with a stabilizer such as STA-BIL™ or
equivalent product!
CAUTION!
This engine is designed to operate on
a 50:1 mixture consisting of unleaded
gasoline and a premium 2-cycle mixing
oil only. Use of Non-approved mixing
oils can lead to excessive maintenance
costs and/or engine damage.
CAUTION!
Never attempt to mix fuel in the unit’s
fuel tank. Always mix all fuels in a
clean approved container.
1. Use only fresh, clean unleaded gasoline
with a pump octane rating of 87 or
higher.
2. Mixing fuel with a Premium 2-cycle
mixing oil designed for use with high-
performance 2-cycle air-cooled engines.
3. Refer to the following examples of 50:1
fuel to oil mix quantities:
Gasoline
2-cycle mixing oil
Liters
milliliters
2.5 l .............................. 50 ml
5 l ................................ 100 ml
