FUEL HANDLING
Fuel
CAUTION! The machine is equipped with a two-stroke engine
and must always been run using a mixture of gasoline and
two-stroke engine oil. It is important to accurately measure
the amount of oil to be mixed to ensure that the correct
mixture is obtained. When mixing small amounts of fuel, even
small inaccuracies can drastically affect the ratio of the
mixture.
Gasoline
•
The lowest recommended octane grade is 87
((RON+MON)/2). If you run the engine on a lower octane
grade than 87 so-called knocking can occur. This gives
rise to a high engine temperature and increased bearing
load, which can result in serious engine damage.
Two-stroke oil
•
For best results and performance use HUSQVARNA two-
stroke engine oil, which is specially formulated for our air-
cooled two stroke-engines.
•
Never use two-stroke oil intended for water-cooled
engines, sometimes referred to as outboard oil (rated
TCW).
•
Never use oil intended for four-stroke engines.
Mixing ratio
1:50 (2%) for all engines.
Mixing
•
Always mix the gasoline and oil in a clean container
intended for fuel.
•
Always start by filling half the amount of the gasoline to be
used. Then add the entire amount of oil. Mix (shake) the
fuel mixture. Add the remaining amount of gasoline.
•
Mix (shake) the fuel mixture thoroughly before filling the
machine’s fuel tank.
•
Do not mix more than one month’s supply of fuel at a time.
•
If the machine is not used for some time the fuel tank
should be emptied and cleaned.
Fueling
•
Keep the handle dry and free from oil and fuel.
•
Ensure that the fuel is well mixed by shaking the container
before filling the tank.
•
Always exercise care when refilling the fuel. Move the
machine at least three metres from the fuelling area
before it is started. Check that the fuel cap is tightened
correctly.
•
Clean around the fuel cap. Clean the fuel and oil tank
regularly. The fuel filter should be changed at least once a
year. Contamination in the tanks causes malfunction.
!
WARNING! Always ensure there is adequate
ventilation when handling fuel.

WARNING! Taking the following precautions,
will lessen the risk of fire:
Do not smoke or place hot objects near fuel.
Always shut off the engine before refuelling.
When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly so
that any excess pressure is released gently.
Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refuelling.
Always move the machine away from the
refuelling area before starting.
