Fuelling ; Starting / Stopping the engine

7. Fuelling

7.1 Fuel information

A high performance two-stroke engine operated with a
petrol:oil mixture (petrol + oil = fuel mixture) or with a
special fuel mixture for two-stroke engines available
from specialists powers this machine. The fuel mixture
can be made up with standard lead-free petrol or with
lead-free premium grade petrol. The minimum octane
rating for petrol is 92 ROZ.
Unsuitable petrol or deviations in the mixing ratio may
lead to serious engine damage!
Avoid direct skin contact with petrol and avoid
inhaling petrol fumes - health hazard!

7.2 Mixing ratio

Always use a fuel:oil ratio of 25:1 (4%) for the first five
tank fillings.
After that we recommend a ratio of 50:1 (2%) with the
use of special two-stroke oil "SOLO 2T engine oil"
which we can supply.
With the use of other brand two-stroke oils we
recommend a ratio of 25:1 (4%).
Never store fuel mixture longer than 3 - 4 weeks.

7.3 Fuelling
While fuelling always follow all safety instructions and
take all safety precautions.
Handle fuel only with the engine turned off. Carefully
clean the area around the filler inlet. Place the
machine with the fuel inlet pointing upwards. Unscrew
the tank lid and fill the fuel mixture up to the lower edge
of the filler neck. Use a funnel with filter to prevent tank
contamination. After filling the tank replace the tank lid
and tighten firmly.
