OPERATION
Fueling
(Do Not Smoke!) (Fig. 21)
This product is powered by a 2-cycle engine and requires pre-mixing
gasoline and 2-cycle oil. Pre-mix unleaded gasoline and 2-cycle
engine oil in a clean container approved for gasoline (Fig. 19).
RECOMMENDED FUEL: THIS ENGINE IS CERTIFIED TO OPERATE ON
UNLEADED GASOLINE INTENDED FOR AUTOMOTIVE USE WITH AN
OCTANE RATING OF 89 ([R + M] / 2) OR HIGHER (Fig. 20).
Mix 2-Cycle Engine Oil with gasoline according to the instructions on
the package. We strongly recommend the use of 2% (50:1) Efco Two
Cycle Engine Oil, which is specifically formulated for all Efco air-
cooled two-stroke engines.
19
The correct oil / fuel proportions shown in the table below are
suitable when using the Efco Two Cycle Engine Oil or an equivalent
high-quality engine oil (JASO specification FD or ISO specification
L-EGD). When oil specifications are NOT equivalent or unknown use
4% (25:1) fuel / oil mixing ratio.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE AUTOMOTIVE OIL OR 2-CYCLE
OUTBOARD OIL.
CAUTION:
- Match your fuel purchases to your consumption; don't
buy more than you will use in one or two months;
- Store gasoline in a tightly-closed container in a cool,
20
dry place.
CAUTION - For the mixture, never use a fuel with an
ethanol percentage higher than 10%; gasohol (mixture
of gasoline and ethanol) up to 10% ethanol or E10 fuel
are acceptable.
When using an Oxygenated Gasoline a good practice of Fuel
Management is necessary.
Gasoline Oxygenated with alcohol readily takes/up water when it is
present; the water may be condensed out of humid air or be a
contaminant in the fuel system, including tank.
The use of Oxygenated Gasoline may cause the occurrence of vapor-
21
lock easier.
NOTE - Prepare only the quantity of mixture required for immediate
use; do not leave fuel in the tank or a container for a long time. Were
commend the use of the additive Emak ADDITIX 2000 code
001000972 if the mixture is to be stored for 30 days.
Alkylate gasoline
CAUTIONS – Alkylate fuels have different density than
normal fuel. Therefore engines, set with normal fuel,
need different H jet regulation to avoid critical issues.
For this operation it's necessary turned at a Licensed
Service Dealer.
