FUELING ENGINE
,_WARNING:
Remove fuffl cap slowly
when refueling.
This engine is certified to operate on un-
leaded gasoline. Before operation, gasoline
must be mixed with a good quality 2-cycle flit-
cooled engine oil. We recommend Crafts-
man@ brand oil mixed at a ratio of 40:1
(2.5%). A 40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 4
liters of unleaded gasoline with 95 ml of oil.
DO NOT USE automotive oil or boat oil.
These oils will cause engine damage. When
mixing fuel, follow instructions printed on oil
contfflner. Once oil is added to gasolffle,
shake container momentarily to assure that
thefuel is thorougfflymixed. Always readand
follow the safety rules relating to fuel before
fueling your unit.
IMPORTANT
Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohot or using ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture which leads to
separation and formation of acids dudng stor-
age. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system
of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine
problems, empty the fuel system before stor-
age for 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank,
start the eng file and let it run until the fuel Iffles
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next
season. Never use engine or carburetor
cleaner prod ucts in the fuel tank or permanent
damage may occur.
