English – 13FUEL HANDLINGFuel safetyNever start the machine:1 If you have spilled fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and allowremaining fuel to evaporate.2 If you have spilled fuel on yourself or your clothes, changeyour clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come incontact with fuel. Use soap and water.3 If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaksfrom the fuel cap and fuel lines.Transport and storage• Store and transport the machine and fuel so that there isno risk of any leakage or fumes coming into contact withsparks or naked flames, for example, from electricalmachinery, electric motors, electrical relays/switches orboilers.• When storing and transporting fuel always use approvedcontainers intended for this purpose.• When storing the machine for long periods the fuel tankmust be emptied. Contact your local gas station to find outwhere to dispose of excess fuel.• Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a completeservice is carried out before long-term storage.• The transport guard must always be fitted to the cuttingattachment when the machine is being transported or instorage.• In order to prevent unintentional starting of the engine, thespark plug cap must always be removed during long-termstorage, if the machine is not under close supervision andwhen performing all service measures.FuelCAUTION! The machine is equipped with a two-strokeengine and must always been run using a mixture of gasolineand two-stroke engine oil. It is important to accuratelymeasure the amount of oil to be mixed to ensure that thecorrect mixture is obtained. When mixing small amounts offuel, even small inaccuracies can drastically affect the ratio ofthe mixture.GasolineCAUTION! Always use a quality gasoline/oil mixture with anoctane rating of at least 87 octane ((RON+MON)/2). If yourmachine is equipped with a catalytic converter (see chapteron Technical data) always use a good quality unleadedgasoline/oil mixture. Leaded gasoline will destroy the catalyticconverter.Use low-emission gasoline, also known as alkylate gasoline,if it is available.This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline.• The lowest recommended octane grade is 87((RON+MON)/2). If you run the engine on a lower octanegrade than 87 so-called knocking can occur. This givesrise to a high engine temperature and increased bearingload, which can result in serious engine damage.• When working at continuous high revs a higher octanerating is recommended.Two-stroke oil• For best results and performance use HUSQVARNA two-stroke engine oil, which is specially formulated for our air-cooled two stroke-engines.• Never use two-stroke oil intended for water-cooledengines, sometimes referred to as outboard oil (ratedTCW).• Never use oil intended for four-stroke engines.• Mixing ratio1:50 (2%) with HUSQVARNA two-stroke oil.!
