6.6 Storage Hints

If the unit is to be laid up or kept idle for any length
of time, proceed as follows:
a) Rinse and clean thoroughly. Never use formula
container of your mist blower for storing
chemicals.
b) Shut off fuel cock and keep engine running
until lines and carburetor are empty. Otherwise
gasoline evaporates, and the remaining
lubricant would clog the carburetor ducts.
c) Remove spark plug and squirt an ounce or two
of corrosion inhibitor (LPS, WD-40 etc.) or
plain engine oil into the cylinder. Crank engine
several times to spread the agent, and then
reinsert spark plug.
d) Please store your machine away from sunlight,
order to protect of the materials against
influence of ultraviolet radiations.
e) Before putting the unit back into service,
remove and clean spark plug; crank engine a
few times with plug removed.
For transport in a vehicle, ensure the
mistblower is well secured to avoid fuel
spillage.
Completely empty the fuel tank before extended
storage or shipment.

7. Fuel information

The engine of your motorized mistblower is a high
performance 2-cycle engine and has to be
operated with a fuel/oil mix or with a special, pre-
mixed fuel for 2-cycle engines available from
specialized dealers.
For the fuel mixture, use lead-free regular
(standard) petrol, lead-free Euro-petrol or lead-free
Super (premium) petrol. The minimum octane
rating is 92 ROZ.
Mixing Ratio:
We recommend a mixing ratio of 50 parts fuel to 1
part of oil (1:50 – 2%) with the use of special 2-
cycle oil "SOLO Profi 2T Oil". When using other -
cycle oils we recommend a mixture ratio of 1:25
(4%). Note: Never store fuel mixture for longer
than 3-4 weeks.
