5 Preparing the Engine for Operation

5.1

Refuelling the Engine

The engine is approved for unleaded petrol. Unleaded petrol
burns with fewer residues, reduces deposits on the spark
plug and extends the service life of the exhaust system. The
petrol must meet the following requirements:
– The petrol is fresh, clean and unleaded.
– The octane rating of the petrol is at least 85.
– The maximum ethanol content of the petrol is 10% (E10).
STIHL recommends STIHL MotoPlus. This fuel is virtually
free of benzene, sulphur and toxic aromatics.
The tank capacity is 0.9 litres.
CAUTION
￭ The engine may be damaged if the correct petrol is not
used.
STIHL recommends always using fresh, good-quality fuel
and never using a 2-stroke mixture (petrol with an oil
additive).
Do not use stale or contaminated petrol.
