3. FILLING FUEL TANK
WARNING: When filling the tank:
- The drill should always be stopped and cooled.
- Never smoke during refueling. It must not have flames or sparks near the fuel.
- Do not attempt to refuel when the engine is hot.
- If fuel has been spilled, immediately stop refueling and do not start the engine. Clean up
the spill and fill the machine in another location.
- Never fill the fuel tank to the flange; there is a risk of overflow.
- Do not refuel in a closed and unventilated area.
The fuel used for this tool is a mixture of unleaded gasoline and registered engine lubricant.
When mixing gasoline with oil, use only gasoline that does not contain ethanol or methanol.
Unleaded gasoline is a quality gasoline type. This will help to avoid damaging the fuel lines of the engine
and other engine parts.
The recommended mixing ratio is 40:1 (make sure the mixing ratio is correct before filling the product.

- Fill the tank slowly with the mixture. Do not exceed the maximum capacity (fill to 80% of its capacity
preferably).
- Replace the cap on the fuel tank and tighten it.
- Wipe any spillage around the unit if necessary
Note: To avoid damage and accidents, DO NOT USE OTHER MIXTURES AND OTHER TYPES OF OIL
/ PETROL
- For the lubrication of the reducer, use hydraulic oil type HV46 to be inserted using the lubricator below.
- Unscrew the nut (1 turn max) and insert the end of the grease gun into the hole and fill to saturation.
- This lubrication should be carried out regularly after and / or before each prolonged use.
3.3 STORAGE OF FUEL
The fuel must be kept in a clean and safe container and always closed.
