6.3. MIX OF FUEL AND OIL
Use unleaded gasoline 95 octane and 100% synthetic
two stroke oil.
Engine fuel: mix synthetic oil and
gasoline (gasoline 40: oil 1 = 2.5%).
Mix gasoline and oil in a CE-approved
container.
Do not use fuel that has been stored for longer than
2 months. A fuel that has been stored for too long will
cause the starting of the machine to be more difficult
and an unsatisfactory engine performance. If the fuel
has been in the tank for over two months, remove it
from the machine and replace it with one in perfect
condition.
