OIL AND FUEL MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Old and/or improperly mixed fuel are the main reasons
for the unit not running properly. Be sure to use fresh,
(less than 60 days old) clean unleaded fuel. Follow the
instructions carefully for the proper fuel/oil mixture.
Definition of Blended Fuels
Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxy-
genates such as ethanol, methanol, or MTBE (ether).
Alcohol-blended fuel absorbs water. As little as 1% water
in the fuel can make fuel and oil separate and leads to
formation of acids during storage. When using alcohol-
blended fuel, use fresh fuel.
Using Blended Fuels
If you choose to use a blended fuel, or its use is unavoid-
able, follow recommended precautions:
• Always use the fresh fuel mix explained in your opera-
tor's manual
• Always agitate the fuel mix before fueling the unit
• Drain the tank and run the engine dry before storing the
unit
Using Fuel Additives
The bottle of 2-cycle oil that came with your unit contains
a fuel additive which will help inhibit corrosion and mini-
mize the formation of gum deposits. It is recommended
that you use our 2-cycle oil with this unit.
If unavailable, use a good 2-cycle oil designed for
air-cooled engines along with a fuel additive, such as
STA-BIL
®
Gas Stabilizer or an equivalent. Add 0.8 oz.
(23 ml.) of fuel additive per gallon of fuel according to the
instructions on the container. NEVER add fuel additives
directly to the unit's fuel tank.
CAUTION:
mum reliability, pay strict attention to the
oil and fuel mixing instructions on the
2-cycle oil container. Using improperly
mixed fuel can severely damage the
engine.
