D. FUEL MIX
Use only fuel recommended by this manual.
This product is fitted with a 2-stroke engine and
therefore requires a 2-stroke petrol and oil mix.
Use leaded (4 Star) or unleaded petrol with a
minimum octane rating of 90.
Only use oil from sealed containers. In order to
obtain a good fuel mix, put the oil into the
container before the petrol.
The use of sub-standard petrol or oil may reduce
performance or reduce the life of certain
components.
Leaded Petrol
If using leaded petrol, the correct fuel mix is
achieved by either using 5% (20:1) of a well
known brand of 2-stroke engine oil, or else 2.5%
(40:1) of special engine oil.
Unleaded Petrol
If using unleaded petrol, you must use a totally
synthetic 2-stroke engine oil or branded 2-stroke
engine oil. In either case use 2.5% (40:1) of oil.
IMPORTANT
Always shake the fuel mix container thoroughly
before pouring any fuel mix.
Fuel mix properties may deteriorate with time and
should be used up within 2 months.

Do not smoke when re-fuelling.
Always open the fuel cap slowly, to release any

Safe Storage of Fuel
Petrol fuel mix is highly inflammable. Put out all
cigarettes, pipes and cigars before working with
fuel. Avoid spilling fuel.
Store fuel in a cool, well ventilated place, in an
approved container specifically designed for the
purpose. Never store engine with fuel in the tank
in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas, where fuel

light such as in a furnace, water heater, clothes
dryer etc.
Petrol fumes can cause an explosion or a fire.
Never store large amounts of fuel.
