NOTE : Gasoline and oil must be premixed in a clean gasoline container. Never mix gasoline and oil in-
doors or in the burushcutter fuel tank. Always use fresh gasoline.
WARNING !! - NEVER USE GASOHOL OR ALCOHOL BLENDED FUELS IN MARUYAMA ENGINES.
Before filling the brushcutter fuel tank, clean around the fuel tank cap so dirt and debris does not enter the
fuel tank. Always shake the fuel container before filling the fuel tank. Remove the fuel cap, then fill the fuel
tank to within about 10mm from the top of the tank. Avoid filling the fuel tank filler neck. Install the cap se-
curely onto the fuel tank.
