HOW TO MIX FUEL:
1.
Measure out the quantities of petrol
and oil to be mixed.
2.
Put some of the petrol into the
clean, approved fuel container
supplied.
3.
Pour in the oil and agitate well.
4.
Be careful that, if the agitation is
insufficient, there is an increased
danger of early piston seizing due to
abnormally lean mixture.
Mixing ratios
:
When using commercially available 2-
cycle oil:
25:1
(
40 ml of oil for every 1 liter of petrol)
FB-BC4-8636 (4-Stroke):
This engine should be lubricated by oil specially formulated for air-cooled 4-
cycle petrol engine use. Use quality oil meant for air-cooled 4-cycle engine use.
It is recommended to use pure petrol and 20W40 grade oil. If you use petrol
with a lower octane value than prescribed, there is a danger that the engine
temperature may rise and an engine problem such as piston seizing may
consequently occur.
These engines are certified to operate on unleaded petrol as they reduce the
contamination of the air for the sake of your health and the environment.
Poor quality petrol or oil may damage sealing rings, fuel lines or fuel tank of the
engine.
FUELING THE UNIT:
1.
Untwist and remove the fuel cap. Rest the cap on a dustless place.
2.
Pour fuel into the fuel tank to 80% of the full capacity.
3.
Fasten the fuel cap securely and wipe up any fuel spillage around the unit.
4.
Fill 60-80 ml oil into the oil tank. (in case of 4-stroke engine)
WARNING
1.
Select bare ground for fueling.
2.
Move at least 10ft (3m) away from the fueling point before starting the engine.
3.
Stop the engine before refueling the unit.
4.
In the case of storing the product for a long period of time, clean the fuel tank
after rendering it empty. Next, activate the engine and empty the carburetor of
the composite fuel.
