RECOMMENDED MIXING RATIOPETROL 40 : OIL 1• Exhaust emission are controlled by the funda-mental engine parameters and components (eq.,carburation, ignition timing and port timing) with-out addition of any major hardware or the intro-duction of an inert material during combustion.• These engines are certified to operate on unleadedpetrol.•••HOW TO MIX FUEL• Pay attention to agitation.1.2.3.4.5.FUELING THE UNIT1. Untwist and remove the fuel cap. Rest the cap on adustless place.2. Put fuel into the fuel tank to 80% of the full capacity.3.

Becareful that if mixing is insufficient there is increaseddanger of early piston seizing due to lack of lubrica-tion.Indicate the contents inside the container by placinga clear indication on the outside of the container foreasy identification and to avoid mixing up with petrolor any other containers.FUEL WITH NO OIL (PURE PETROL) - It WILLcause severe damage to the internal engine partsimmediately.GASOHOL - It can cause deterioration of rubberand/or plastic parts and disrupt engine lubrication.OIL FOR 4-STROKE ENGINES - It can cause sparkplug fouling, exhaust blockages or piston ringsticking.Mixed fuels which have been left unused for aperiod of one month or more may clog the carbure-tor and result in the engine failing to operate prop-erly.In the case of storing the product for a long period oftime, clean the fuel tank after completely emptyingit.
