Fuel Mixture

The fuel: oil ratio is 50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil or
50:1.
Note: Never use a mixing ratio less than
50:1 regardless of the oil package
mixing instructions. Ratios less than
50:1, (for example, 60:1, 80:1, 100:1),
reduce the amount of lubrication to
the internal moving parts of the
engine and can cause damage.

Mixing Instructions

IMPORTANT: Never mix gasoline and oil
directly in the Pruner fuel tank.
1. Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container
approved for gasoline.
2. Mark the container to identify it as fuel mix for
the Pruner.
3. Use regular unleaded gasoline and fill the contain-
er with half the required amount of gasoline.
4. Pour the correct amount of oil into the container
then add the remaining amount of gasoline.
5. Close the container tightly and shake it momen-
tarily to evenly mix the oil and the gasoline before
filling the fuel tank on the Pruner.

6. When refilling the Pruner fuel tank, clean around
the fuel tank cap to prevent dirt and debris from
entering the tank during cap removal.
7. Always shake the premix fuel container momen-
tarily before filling the fuel tank.
8. Always use a spout or funnel when fueling to
reduce fuel spillage.
9. Fill the tank only to within 1/4-1/2 in. (6 mm-13
mm) from the top of the tank. Avoid filling to the
top of the tank filler neck.

Starting And Stopping

Before Starting The Engine
1. Fill the fuel tank as instructed in the Before
Operation section of this manual (US-14).
2. Rest the Pruner on the ground.
3. Make sure the chain and guide bar are clear of any
broken glass, nails, wire, rocks or other debris.
4. Keep all bystanders, children and animals away
from the working area.
Cold Starting Procedure
This Pruner is equipped with a fuel primer and a choke
system. To start a "cold" engine properly, perform the
following procedure:
1. Pump the primer bulb at the bottom of the carbu-
retor until fuel can be seen flowing through the
fuel return line to the fuel tank.
(Flowing fuel should be almost clear, not foamy
or full of bubbles.)
