• For optimum engine performance and for the sake of your own health and the
environment, always use leadfree fuel!
• The two-cycle motor oil must meet the specification API TC, JASO FC or ISO
L-EGD.
Note: To prepare the fuel-oil mixture, always premix the prescribed amount
of oil volume with half of the fuel volume and then add the remaining
amount of fuel. Before you fill the tank, always shake the finished mix-
ture well.
• It is not a good idea to increase the oil percentage of the two-cycle mixture
for beyond the specified mixing ratio for any reason. This will increase the
amount of combustion residue which pollutes the environment and also clogs
the exhaust port in the cylinder and the muffler. Furthermore, this also in-
creases fuel consumption and reduces engine performance.
CAUTION
Open the cap of the fuel tank carefully since there may be pressure present!
