- Only use line of the same diameter as the original to avoid
overloading the engine.

FUEL
2 STROKE - WARNING. The machine is equipped with a
two stroke engine. Always run the machine with fuel, which
is mixed with oil. Only prepare the quantity of fuel for each
job. Do not smoke. Refill when the engine is switched off and
away from naked flame. AIways use a minimum octane
number of 90. Mix fresh gasoline and ACTIVE oil in the ratio
of 50:1 (2%). If the ACTIVE oil is not available use a good 2
stroke oil quality in the ratio of 25:1 (4%) see fig.15
Important Always shake this fuel mix vigorously each time
you use it. Fuel mix properties deteriorate with time we
therefore recommend that you only make the quantity of fuel
mix you will need for each usage. Do not use fuel mix more
than a week old as this could damage the engine. Fill the
brushcutter fuel tank only to 3/4 capacity to allow for fuel
expansion.
FUELING
WARNING Always shut off the engine before refueling. Slowly
open the cap of the fuel tank, when filling up with fuel, so that
possible over pressure disappears. Tighten the fuel cap
carefully after fuelling. Always move the machine at least 3
m (10Ft) from the fueling area before starting. Before fueling
clean the tank cap area carefully, to ensure that no dirt falls
into the tank make sure that the fuel is well mixed by shaking
the container before fueling.
