synthetic oil.Mix gasoline andoil
at a
ratio of 40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained
by mixing 3.2 ounces of oil with 1
gallon of unleaded gasoline.
Included
with this trimmer is a 3.2 ounce
container of oil. Pour the entire
contents of this container into 1 gallon
of gasoline to achieve the proper fuel
mixture. DO NOT USE automotive oil or
boat oil. These oils will cause engine
damage. When mixing fuel, follow
instructions
printed on container.
Once oil is added to gasoline, shake
container momentarily to assure that
the fuel is thoroughly mixed. Always
read and follow the safety rules
relating to fuel before fueling your unit.
IMPORTANT
Experience indicates that alcohol
blended fuels (called gasohol or using
ethanol or methanol) can attract mois-
ture which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic
gas can damage the fuel system of an
engine while in storage. To avoid en-
gine problems, empty the fuel system
before storage for 30 days or longer.
Drain the gas tank, start the engine and
let it run until the fuel lines and carbure-
tor are empty. Use fresh fuel next sea-
son. Never use engine or carburetor
cleaner products in the fuel tank or per-
manent damage may occur.
See the STORAGE section for additional
information.
