3.12  Filling up with fuel 

WARNING:

 

Petrol is highly flammable. Always handle it with the utmost care to 

avoid all risk of burns or explosion 
 

WARNING:

 

This  tool  works  with  a  2  stroke  mixture  of  petrol  and  oil.    Always 

respect  this  ratio  and  never  start  the  motor  with  just  petrol  (even  for  a  short 
while) as this may lead to irreversible damage to the engine

 

 

 

The fuel is a mixture of unleaded 95 petrol and mineral or semi-synthetic 
oil for air-cooled 2 stroke engines. 

 

Only use “fresh” unleaded  95 petrol.  Only buy the  quantity  that  you  are 
likely to use within a month. Only transport and store petrol in containers 
designed specifically for this purpose and which are approved and labelled 
as such. 

 

Mix in the quantity of oil required for the volume of petrol to obtain the 
required mixture (see section 4: technical characteristics). 

 

Do  not  mix  the  two  directly  in  the  machine’s  tank.  Use  an  adapted 
container and carefully respect the mixture ratio as specified. 

 

Always fill up with fuel while outdoors and never in an enclosed space, nor 
close to a flame or source of intense heat. Do not smoke while filling up 
with fuel. 

 

Do not unscrew the fuel cap when the motor is on or hot. 

 

Slowly  pour  the  fuel  into  the  tank  with  the  help  of  a  filling  nozzle  or 
funnel. 

 

Avoid  spilling  petrol  and  make  sure  that  you  do  not  overfill  the  tank,  to 
avoid spillage. Leave a few millimetres of space under the rim to allow the 
fuel to expand. Put the fuel cap back on correctly. 

 

If some petrol is spilled, do not start the engine, move the machine away 
from the area of spillage and carefully wipe the edge trimmer. You should 
not try to start the machine until all petrol vapours have evaporated. 

 

Close  the  fuel  container  and  put  it  in  appropriate  place,  protected  from 
heat. 

 

If you suspect a petrol leak do not start the motor, drain the tank and get 
your machine checked by an After-Sales centre approved by SANLI UK.
