Mixing Fuel - Jacto HP726 Owner's/Operator's Manual

Mixing Fuel

CAUTION!
Some types of gasoline contain
alcohol as an oxygenate.
Oxygenated gasoline may
cause increased operating
temperatures. Under certain
conditions, alcohol-based
gasoline may also reduce the
lubricating qualities of some 2-
cycle mixing oils. Never use
any type of gasoline containing
more than 10% alcohol by
volume!
Generic oils and some out-
board oils may not be intended
for use in high-performance 2-
cycle engines, and should
never be used in your Shin-
daiwa engine.
IMPORTANT!
This engine is certified to operate
on a 50:1 mixture consisting of
unleaded gasoline and 2-cycle
mixing oil only. Mix only enough
fuel for your immediate needs! If
fuel must be stored longer than 30
days, it should first be treated with a
stabilizer such as StaBiI™.
! Mix fuel by combining unleaded
gasoline with Shindaiwa Premium
2-cycle Engine Oil at a ratio of
50:1 (a gallon of gasoline mixed
with 2.6 fl. oz. of 2-cycle mixing oil
or 5 liters of gasoline with 100 ml
of 2-cycle mixing oil).
! Use only fresh, clean, unleaded
gasoline with an octane rating of
87 or higher.
