Shindaiwa EB240S, Owner'S/Operator'S Manual

CAUTION!

Some gasolines contain alcohol as
an oxygenate! Oxygenated fuels
may cause increased operating
temperatures. Under certain condi-
tions, alcohol-based fuels may also
reduce the lubricating qualities of
some mixing oils. Never use any
fuel containing more than 10%
alcohol by volume!
Generic oils and some outboard
motor oils may not be intended for
use in high-performance air cooled
2-cycle engines, and should never
be used in your Shindaiwa engine!

CAUTION!

This engine is designed to operate
on a 50:1 mixture consisting of
unleaded gasoline and a Premium
2-cycle mixing oil only. Use of Non-
approved mixing oils can lead to
excessive maintenance costs and/or
engine damage.

IMPORTANT!

Mix only enough fuel for your immedi-
ate needs! If fuel must be stored longer
than 30 days and Shindaiwa One oil
with fuel stabilizer is not used, it should
first be treated with a fuel stabilizer
such as StaBil™.

WARNING!

Minimize the risk of fire!

■

■

Always allow the unit to cool
