Fuel and Oil Fuel Mixture
Fuel: The high performance two-stroke engine
requires a fuel mixture of gasoline and 2-cycle
air-cooled engine oil. Fuel: The engine of your
brushcutter is a high-performance 2 cycle
engine requiring the use of a fuel-oil mixture.
The fuel-oil mixture can also available from
trade stores. Important: Lead-free regular
gasoline, lead-free Euro-gasoline or Super un-
leaded may be used (minimum octane count
91 ROZ).
Mixing Ratio: We recommend a petrol / oil ra-
tio of 50:1 (2%) when using the special two-
stroke engine oil "Castrol Super TT". When
using any other premium two-stroke engine oil
we recommend a mixing ratio of 25:1 (4%).
Hint: Never store pre-mixed petrol for more
than 3 to 4 weeks.
