OiL AND FUEL MiXiNG iNSTRUCTiONS
Old and/or improperly mixed fuel are the main reasons for the unit
not running properly. Be sure to use fresh, clean unleaded fuel.
Follow the instructions
carefully for the proper fuel/oil mixture.
Definition of Blended Fuels
Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxygenates such as
ethanol, methanol, or MTBE (ether). Alcohol-blended
fuel absorbs
water. As little as 1% water in the fuel can make fuel and oil
separate, it forms acids when stored. When using alcohol-blended
fuel, use fresh fuel (less than 30 days old).
Using Blended
Fuels
If you choose to use a blended fuel, or its use is unavoidable,
follow
recommended
precautions:
•
Always use the fresh fuel mix explained in your operator's manual
Use the fuel additive STA-BIL® or an equivalent
Always agitate the fuel mix before fueling the unit
Drain the tank and run the engine dry before storing the unit
Using Fuel Additives
The bottle of 2-cycle oil that came with your unit contains a fuel
additive which will help inhibit corrosion and minimize the formation
of gum deposits, it is recommended
that you use our 2-cycle oil
with this unit.
if unavailable, use a good 2-cycle oil designed for air-cooled
engines along with a fuel additive, such as STA-BIL Gas Stabilizer or
an equivalent. Add 0.8 oz. (23 ml) of fuel additive per gallon of fuel
according to the instructions
on the container. NEVER add fuel
additives directly to the unit's fuel tank.
it has been proven that fuel containing greater than 10%
ethanol will likely damage this engine and void the warranty.
Mixing the Fuel
FUELING THE UNiT
WARNING:
Gasoline is extremely flammable, ignited
vapors may explode. Always stop the engine and allow it
to cool before filling the fuel tank. Do not smoke while
filling the tank. Keep sparks and open flames at a distance
from the area.
_
ARNING:
Remove fuel cap slowly to avoid injury from
fuel spray. Never operate the unit without the fuel cap
securely in place.
_
ARNING:
Add fuel in a clean, well ventilated outdoor
area. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately. Avoid creating
a source of ignition for spilt fuel. Do not start the engine
until fuel vapors dissipate.
1. Position the unit with the fuel cap facing up.
2. Remove the fuel cap.
3. Place the fuel container spout into the fill hole on the fuel tank
and fill the tank.
NOTE: Do not overfill the tank.
4. Wipe up any fuel that may have spilled.
5. Reinstall the fuel cap.
6. Move the unit at least 30 ft. (9.1 m) from the fuel container and
the fueling site before starting the engine.
CAUTION:
For proper engine operation and maximum
reliability, pay strict attention to the oil and fuel mixing
instructions
on the 2-cycle oil container. Using improperly
mixed fuel can severely damage the engine.
Thoroughly mix the proper ratio of 2-cycle engine oil with unleaded
gasoline in a separate fuel can. Use a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio. Do not mix
them directly in the engine fuel tank. See the table below for specific
gas and oil mixing ratios.
NOTE: One gallon (3.8 liters) of unleaded gasoline mixed with one
3.2 oz. (95 ml) bottle of 2-cycle oil makes a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio.
NOTE: Dispose of the old fuel/oil mix according to federal, state and
local regulations.
