Storing Fuel
Store fuel only in approved safety-type fuel can‐
isters in a dry, cool and safe location protected
from light and the sun.
Fuel mix ages – only mix sufficient fuel for a few
weeks work. Do not store fuel mix for longer than
30 days. Exposure to light, the sun, low or high
temperatures can quickly make the fuel mix
unusable.
STIHL MotoMix may be stored for up to 2 years
without any problems.
► Thoroughly shake the mixture in the canister
before fueling your machine.
WARNING
Pressure may build up in the canister – open it
carefully.
► Clean the fuel tank and canister from time to
time.
Dispose of remaining fuel and cleaning fluid
properly in accordance with local regulations and
environmental requirements.
