Always use lead-free petrol. You must never use
2-stroke petrol mixed with oil.
NOTE! Normal unleaded petrol is perishable and
must not be stored longer than 30 days.
Environmental petrol can be used, i.e. alkylate pet-
rol. This type of petrol has a composition that is
less harmful for people and nature.
Petrol is highly inflammable. Always
store fuel in containers that are made
especially for this purpose.
Only fill or top up with petrol outdoors,

ping up. Fill up with fuel before starting
the engine. Never remove the filler cap
or fill with petrol while the engine is
running or still warm.
