unleaded petrol. Unleaded petrol
burns with fewer residues, reduces
deposits on the spark plug and extends the
service life of the exhaust system.
Requirements for the fuel:
– Fresh, clean and unleaded petrol
– Rating of at least 85 octane
– Maximum ethanol content 10 % (E10).
VIKING recommends VIKING MotoPlus.
This fuel is virtually free of benzene,
sulphur and toxic aromatics.
Tank capacity: 0,9 litres
Avoid damage to the machine!
VIKING recommends always using
fresh, good quality fuel and never
using petrol with an oil additive (2-
stroke mixture). Do not use stale or
contaminated fuel. Avoid
contaminating the tank contents
