ON and/or improperly mixed fuel are the main reasons
for the unit not running properly. Be sure to use fresh,
cban unleaded fuel. Follow the instructions carefully for
the proper fue%il mixture.
Definition of Bmended Fuels
Today's fueis are often a bbnd of gasoiine and
oxygenates such as ethanol, methanol, or MTBE (ether).
AIcohol-bbnded fuel absorbs water. As littb as 1%
water in the fue[ can make rue[ and oi[ separate, it forms
acids when stored. When using alcohol-bbnded fuel,
use fresh rue[ (Hessthan 60 days oid).
Using Bmended Fuems
if you choose to use a bbnded fuel or its use is
unavoidabb, follow recommended precautions:
• AJways use the fresh fuel mix explained in your
operator's manual
• Always agitate the fuel mix before fueling the unit
, Drain the tank and run the engine dry before storing
the unit
Using Fuem Additives
The bottle of 2-cycb oil that came with your unit
contains a fuel additive which will help inhibit corrosion
and minimize the formation of gum deposits, it is
recommended that you use our 2-cycb oil with this unit.
if unavailable, use a good 2-cycle oil designed for
air-coobd engines along with a fuel additive, such as
STA-B[L" Gas Stabilizer or an equivalent. Add 0.8 oz.
(23 ml.) of fuel additive per gallon of fuel according to the
instructions on the container. NEVER add fuel additives
directly to the unit's fuel tank.
, For proper engine
• operatbn and
maximum reliability, pay strict attentbn to
the oil and fuel mixing instructions on the
2-cycle oil container. Using improperly mixed
fuel can severely damage the engine.
ThorougHy mix the proper ratio of 2-cycb engine oil
with unleaded gasoline in a separate fuel can. Use a 40:1
fuel/oil ratio. Do not mix them directly in the engine fuel
tank. See the table below for specific gas and oil mixing
ratios.
NOTE: One gabn (3.8 liters) of unleaded gasoline mixed
with one 3.2 oz. (95 ml.) bottle of
2-cycb oil makes a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio.
