OPERATION
AVOID inhaling oil mists or vapors.
◆
ECHO brand 2-stroke oils may be mixed at 50:1 ratio for application
in all ECHO engines sold in the past regardless of ratio specified in
those manuals.
Handling Fuel
Fuel is VERY flammable. Use extreme care when mixing, storing
or handling, or serious personal injury may result.
Use an approved fuel container. Mark fuel containers as
◆
containing 2-stroke mixture fuel.
DO NOT smoke near fuel.
◆
DO NOT allow flames or sparks near fuel.
◆
Fuel tanks/cans may be under pressure. Always loosen
◆
fuel caps slowly allowing pressure to equalize.
NEVER refuel a unit when the engine is HOT or RUNNING!
◆
DO NOT fill fuel tanks indoors. ALWAYS fill fuel tanks
◆
outdoors over bare ground.
DO NOT overfill fuel tank. Wipe up spills immediately.
◆
Securely tighten fuel tank cap and close fuel container
◆
after refueling.
Inspect for fuel leakage. If fuel leakage is found, do not
◆
start or operate unit until leakage is repaired.
Move at least 3 m (10 ft.) from refueling location before
◆
starting the engine.
Gasoline vapor is heavier than air, and can travel along the
ground to nearby sources of ignition such as electrical motors,
pilot lights, and hot or running engines. Vapors ignited by an
ignition source can flash back to the fuel container, resulting in
an explosion, fire, serious or fatal injuries, and extensive
property damage.
