FUEL & OIL
YOUR MACHINE IS SUPPLIED WITHOUT ENGINE OIL OR PETROL
Operating the engine with insufficient oil, can have catastrophic consequences. Any failure caused by
insufficient oil, will not be covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
Fuel & its vapors are very flammable. Do not use or fuel the machine near a flame, sparks or while smoking.
Allow the engine to cool for more than 3 minutes, before re-fueling. Never fuel the machine with engine
running. Fuel the engine at least 15 metres away from your work area. Always fuel your machine outdoors.
IMPORTANT:
Fuel which is older than 30 days old can become stale and cause acid & gum deposits in the fuel system or
essential carburettor components. This could result in starting issues which would not be covered by your
manufacturer's warranty. Ensure that any stored petrol is clearly marked in a separate appropriate canister
for a maximum of 30 days, if not mixed with a fuel additive. If the machine is not going to be used for a long
period, drain the fuel tank, start the engine and drain the carburettor of any remaining fuel.
FUEL MIXTURE
THE MACHINE SHOULD USE A 40:1 UNLEADED PETROL TO TWO STROKE SYNTHETIC OR SEMI SYNTHETIC OIL
MIXTURE RATIO. USE GOOD QUALITY UNLEADED FUEL ONLY WITH AN OCTANE OF 89 OR ABOVE.
Operating the engine with insufficient oil within your fuel mixture, can have catastrophic consequences. Any
failure caused by insufficient oil, will not be covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
The mixture should be shaken prior to entering the machine fuel tank. It is recommended that you use a Fuel
Mixing Bottle, to ensure the correct fuel mixture is used with your machine. We recommend HANDY PARTS –
FUEL MIXING BOTTLE (HP-120).
To keep fuel fresh, we recommend you use SURE-START FUEL ADDITIVE (HP-199) from Handy Parts. A fuel
additive added to your fuel at the time of mixture, will help make your machine easier to start, extend the
shelf life of your fuel mixture for up to two years, keeps the carburettor & engine clean, plus reduces emissions
and increases fuel economy. A 250ml bottle of SURE-START FUEL ADDITIVE will treat 25 litres of fuel mix
Only use 2-stroke air cooled engine oil. DO NOT USE automotive or marine oil.
