Mixing Bottle
For mixing the fuel and the two stroke oil only use the provided mixing
bottle. First fill the fuel into the bottle and then the oil. Thoroughly shake the
mixture.
Fuels and Refuelling
Fuels and Refuelling
·Do not smoke and avoid open flames while refuelling
the tank.
·Stop the engine before refuelling the tank.
·Let the machine cool down before refuelling again.
·Fuels can contain substances similar to solvents.
·Eyes and skin should not come in contact with fuels. Always wear
protective gloves when refuelling.
·To protect the environment, make sure that no fuel gets into the soil. Use
an appropriate and absorbent base.
·Fuel and fuel mixtures age through evaporation, especially at high
temperatures. Aged fuel and fuel mixtures can cause starting
problems and damage the engine. Purchase only that amount of fuel,
which will be consumed over the next few months. At high
temperatures (e.g. in summer), once fuel has been mixed it should be
used up in 6 – 8 weeks.
·Failure in mixing the correct fuel will cause severe damage to the engine
inner parts. Never use oil for 4-stroke engines. Do not mix the fuel and
the oil directly in the fuel tank.
