To operate the engine you must use high quality 2-stroke engine oil to ensure that the engine operates correctly throughout its life. Use unleaded
regular or unleaded premium gasoline only. It may contain up to 10% ethanol, 10% gasohol, 15% MTBE, and 15% ETBE. DO NOT use methanol or leaded
fuels.
Mixture
The fuel used must be a mixture of 2-stroke engine oil and gasoline at ratio of 30:1.
Mixing fuel
Caution: Never store the engine with fuel in the tank indoors. Fuel and fuel vapors are highly flammable.
Caution: Never mix fuel and oil directly in the engine fuel tank. Use only approved, non-metal, portable fuel containers.
Caution: Refueling and handling of fuel must always be done by an adult.
1. Fuel must be mixed in a container in an outdoor, well ventilated area.
2. Fill a certified fuel container 1/4 full with the recommended fuel.
3. Add the recommended amount of 2-stroke engine oil.
4. Screw the container cap tight.
5. Shake the container to mix the fuel and oil.
6. Unscrew the cap slowly to vent. Add the rest of the fuel required.
7. Wipe away any spilled fuel or oil and allow to evaporate before moving or transporting.
Caution: Always handle gasoline in a well ventilated area, outdoors, away from flames or sparks.
Important: This engine uses a gasoline/oil mixture. DO NOT run on straight gas only, engine damage will result.
Refueling
1. Shut-off the engine and allow it to completely cool before refueling the fuel tank.
2. Move to a well ventilated area, outdoors, away from flames and sparks.
3. Clean debris from area around the fuel filler cap.
4. Loosen the fuel filler cap slowly. Place the fuel filler cap on a clean, dry surface.
5. Carefully add fuel without spilling.
6. Do not fill the fuel tank completely, allow space for fuel to expand.
7. Immediately replace the fuel filler cap and tighten. Wipe off spilled fuel.
Caution: DO NOT start engine if fuel is spilled. Wipe off excess fuel. Remove engine from area to avoid sparks.
Starting and stopping the engine
1. Move the engine to a well ventilated area, outdoors, to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.
2. Move to an area away from flames or sparks, to avoid ignition of vapors if present.
3. Remove all debris from air filter holes and from the fuel filler cap to ensure proper air flow.
4. Set the switch to the ON position.
5. Fuel priming:
• When using the primer bulb, allow the bulb to return completely to its original position between presses.
• The choke must be in the OFF or RUN position when pushing or using the primer bulb.
First Start:
Starting new engine for first time or after running out of fuel, press the bulb 3 times.
Cold Start:
Starting engine after it has been sitting or stored briefly with fuel in the tank, press the bulb 1 time in temperatures above 13°C or 2
times in temperatures below 13°C.
Warm Start:
Do not use the fuel primer bulb or closed choke if engine did not run out of fuel or has not cooled completely. Flooding of engine will
occur.
6. Choke:
• The choke can be closed by moving the choke lever as far to the ON or CHOKE position as possible.
• Half choke is defined when the choke lever is between ON or CHOKE and OFF or RUN.
Warm Start:
No choke or half choke is needed.
