GASOLINE
The 2-cycle engine on this product requires a fuel mixture
of regular unleaded gasoline and a high quality engine oil
for lubrication of the bearings and other moving parts.
The correct foel/oil mixture is 40:1 {see Fuel Mixture
Chart). Too little oil or the incorrect oil type will cause
poor performance and may cause the engine to overheat
and seize.
Gasoline and oil must be premixed in a clean container ap -
proved for gasoline. Always use fresh regular unleaded
gasoline.
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline.
2-CYCLE AIR-COOLED OIL:
WEED EATER 40:1,2-cycle engine oil is strongly recom¬
mended. WEED EATER oil is especially blended with fuel
stabilizers and reduced smoke additives.
• Fuel stabiliz ers protect the fuel from oxidation and the
formation of gum and varnish,
• Under average conditions, regular unleaded gasoline
stays fresh for 30 to 60 days out of the refinery.
« WEED EATER 40:1,2-cycle engine oil with fuel stabi¬
lizers will extend the fuel life by up to 5 times.
If WEED EATER 40:1,2-cycle engine oil is not available,
use a good quality 2-cycle engine oil, formulated for AIR¬
COOLED engines, that has a recommended fuel mixture
of 40:1.
IMPORTANT! Do not use:
♦ AUTOMOTIVE OIL
♦ BOAT OILS (NMMA,BIA. etc.)
These oils do not have proper additives for 2-cycle, AIR¬
COOLED engines and can cause engine damage.
GASOLINE AND OIL MIXTURE
Mix gasoline and oil as follows:
• Consult Fuel Mixture Chart for correct mixture.
• Do not mix gasoline and oil directly in the fuel tank of
the engine,
FOR ONE GALLON OF FUEL:
• Pour 3,2 ounces of high quality, 2-cycle engine oil into
an empty, container approved for gasoline.
» Add one gallon of regular unleaded gasoline to the con-
tainei; then securely replace the cap. Shake the container
momentarily to assure oil is thoroughly mixed. The fuel is
ready for use,
