Mixing Fuel; Filling The Fuel Tank - Shindaiwa T282 Manual De Instrucciones

Mixing fuel

CAUTION!
■
Never use any type of gasoline
containing more than 10% alcohol
by volume! Some types of gasoline
contain alcohol as an oxygenate.
Oxygenated gasoline may cause
increased operating temperatures.
Under certain conditions, alcohol-
based gasoline may also reduce
the lubricating qualities of some
2-cycle mixing oils.
■
Generic oils and some outboard
oils may not be intended for use in
high-performance 2-cycle engines,
and should never be used in your
Shindaiwa engine.

Filling the fuel tank

WARNING!
Minimize the Risk of Fire
■

engine.
■
ALWAYS stop the engine and allow
it to cool before refueling.
■
ALWAYS Wipe all spilled fuel and
move at least 3 meters (10 feet) from

CAUTION!
This engine is designed to operate
on a 50:1 mixture consisting of
unleaded gasoline and ISO-L-EGD
or JASO FD class 2-cycle mixing oil
only. Use of non-approved mixing
oils can lead to excessive carbon
deposits.
■
Use only fresh, clean unleaded gasoline
with a pump octane of 87 or higher.
■
Mix all fuel with a 2-cycle air-cooled
mixing oil that meets or exceeds ISO-L-
EGD and/or JASO FD classified oils at
50:1 gasoline/oil ratio.
CAUTION!
Mix and pour fuel outdoors where
there are no sparks and flames.
■
FUEL IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE.
■
ALWAYS store gasoline in a con-
tainer approved for flammable liquids.
■
ALWAYS inspect the unit for fuel
leaks before each use. During each
refill, check that no fuel leaks from
around the fuel cap and/or fuel tank.
If fuel leaks are evident, stop using
the unit immediately. Fuel leaks must
be repaired before using the unit.
■
ALWAYS move the unit at least 3
meters (10 feet) away from a fuel
storage area or other readily flam-
mable materials before starting
the engine.

IMPORTANT!
Mix only enough fuel for your immediate
needs! If fuel must be stored longer than 30
days and oil with fuel stabilizer is not
used, it should first be treated with a fuel
stabilizer such as STA-BIL™.
Oil is a registered JASO FD classi-fied
oil and also meets or exceeds ISO-L-EGD per-
formance requirements. Shindaiwa One is rec-
ommended for use in all Shindaiwa low emis-
sions engines. Shindaiwa One also includes a
fuel stabilizer.
1. Place the unit on a flat, level surface.
2. Clear any dirt or other debris from
around the fuel filler cap.
CAUTION!
Slowly remove the fuel cap only after
stopping the engine
3. Remove the fuel cap, and fill the tank
with clean, fresh fuel.
4. Reinstall the fuel filler cap and tighten
firmly.
5. Wipe away any spilled fuel before start-
ing engine.
