Preparing 2-stroke mix
Note: This blower vacuum is powered by a 2-stroke engine that requires a petrol/oil mixture
as fuel.
WARNING: ALWAYS use dedicated fully synthetic 2-stroke oil. DO NOT use regular engine
oil for 2-stroke mix.
1. Use a suitable 2-stroke fuel mixing bottle to measure the required amount of oil, see
mixing chart below
Unleaded Petrol
40:1
Fully Synthetic
2-Stroke Oil
WARNING: DO NOT pour oil directly into the Fuel Tank (22). The 2-stroke mix needs to be
prepared and thoroughly mixed in a separate container, prior to being poured into the trimmer.
2. Pour the required amount of 2-stroke oil followed by unleaded petrol into the Fuel Mixing
Bottle, close and shake until thoroughly mixed
Note: 2-stroke mix must not be stored long-term. ONLY mix the amount required for
immediate consumption. Refer to the 'Storing Fuel' section for further information.
Filling with fuel
WARNING: Danger of fire and burn injuries. Take extra care when fuelling this machine.
WARNING: NEVER fill with fuel whilst the engine is running. Switch off the engine and wait
until it has cooled before refuelling.
WARNING: ONLY refuel the hedge trimmer outdoors, in well-ventilated areas.
WARNING: ALWAYS open the fuel tank carefully to allow potential pressure build-up inside
the tank to release slowly. Never open the fuel tank while the engine is running.

• Always use extreme care when handling fuel. Fuel is highly flammable
• Never attempt to fuel the hedge trimmer if the fuel system components are damaged or
are leaking

fuelling
• Never smoke or light fires near the hedge trimmer or fuels
• Always transport and store fuels in an approved container
• Never place flammable material close to the engine exhaust
• Do not use petrol which contains ethanol or methanol as it may damage the fuel lines and
other engine parts
• Mix only enough fuel for immediate needs. If fuel must be stored longer than 30 days, it
should first be treated with a stabiliser or similar product
1. Premix the fuel in the Fuel Mixing Bottle (2), following the guidelines under 'Preparing
2-stroke mix'
