FUEL
Fueling and refueling the brush cutter
Warning! Use of unmixed, improperly mixed, or fuel
older than 90 days, (Stale Fuel), may cause hard starting,
poor performance, or severe engine damage and void
the product warranty. Read and follow instructions in the
"Storage Section" on this manual.
Warning! Alternative fuels, which contain, Methanol
or any fuels not meeting BLACK+DECKER requirements
are NOT approved for use in BLACK+DECKER 2-stroke
gasoline engines. Use of alternative fuels may cause
performance problems, loss of power, overheating,
fuel vapor lock, and unintended machine operation,
including, but not limited to, improper clutch engagement.
Alternative fuels may also cause premature deterioration
of fuel lines, gaskets, carburetors and other engine
components.
Fuel requirements
Gasoline: Use 89 Octane (or higher) unleaded gasoline
known to be good quality and commonly used in the local
automotive segment. Should it contain Ethanol, make sure
it has low contents.
Two Stroke Oil: A two-stroke engine oil meeting ISO-
L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. FC/FD Standards
must be used. Castrol brand A747 2-Stroke Oil meets
these standards. Engine problems due to inadequate
lubrication caused by failure to use an ISO-L-EGD (ISO/
CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. FC/FD certified oil will void the
two-stroke engine warranty.
DANGER
Fuel is very flammable. Use extreme care when mixing,
storing, or handling or serious personal injury may result.
f Use an approved fuel container.
f Do not smoke nera fuel.
f Do not allow flames or sparks near fuel.
f Fuel tanks/cans may be under pressure. Always
loosen fuel caps slowly allowing pressure to equalize.
f Never refuel a unit when the engine is HOT or
RUNNING.
f Do not fill the fuel in indoor areas. Always fill the fuel
in outdoor over bare ground.
f Do not overfill fuel tank. Wipe up spills immediatly.
f Securely tighten fuel tank cap and close fuel container
after refueling.
f Inspect for fuel leakage. If fuel leakage is found,
do not start or operate unit leakage is repaired.
f Move at least 3m (10ft.) from refueling location before
starting the engine.
Fuel to oil mix – 40:1 Ratio
Fuel ration other than 40:1 may cause
damage engine. Ensure mixture is
correct.
Mixing instructions
1. Fill an approved fuel container with half of the

pull recoil starter handle/rope until engine starts and
runs. Release throttle trigger, and allow unit to warm
up at idle for several minutes. Note: If engine does
not start with choke in RUN position after 5 pulls,
repeat instructions 2 to 5.
6. Throttle Trigger: After engine warm-up, gradually
depress throttle trigger to increase engine RPM to
operating speed.
Starting warm engine (Fig. F, G and H)
The starting procedure is the same as COLD START
except DO NOT close the choke, and do not hold throttle
