Research Octane No. (RON)
NOTE
If knocking or pinging occurs, try a different brand of gasoline
or higher octane grade.
WARNING

conditions. Always stop the engine and do not smoke. Make sure
the area is well ventilated and free from any source of flame or
sparks; this includes any appliance with a pilot light.

Do not mix vegetable and mineral based oils.
Too much oil will cause excessive smoking and spark plug fouling.
Too little oil will cause engine damage or premature wear.
Below 0 ºC do not use 100% synthetic oil.
To prepare the mixture, first pour oil and half of the gasoline used
into a container and stir the mixture thoroughly. Then add the rest
of the gasoline and stir the mixture
At low temperature, oil will not easily mix with gasoline. Take
time to ensure a well-blended mixture.
The lubrication quality of this mixture deteriorates rapidly; use
a fresh mixture for each day of operation.
