Operation
Mixing the fuel
This product is powered by a 2 stroke engine
and requires pre-mixing petrol and 2 stroke oil.
The oil mix should be 25:1. Never mix petrol
and oil directly in the engine tank.
Use unleaded petrol intended for motor vehicle
use with an Octane rating of 87 ( [R + M] / 2) or
higher. Purchase fuel from a reputable fuel
supplier.
Use the mixing container provided to mix the oil
and petrol in the correct quantities.
Petrol Oil
500 ml 20ml
1 litre 40ml
2 litres 80ml
3 litres 120ml
4 litres 160ml
5 litres 200ml
Mix only enough fuel for your immediate needs.
Fuel should not be stored for more than 30 days.
Follow these steps to mix the fuel:
1. Use the container provided for mixing fuel.
2. Mix the 2 stroke engine oil with unleaded
petrol in the container provided at the rate
of 25 parts petrol to 1 part oil.
3. Mix the fuel thoroughly and also each time
before re-fuelling.
4. Mix in small quantities. Do not mix more
fuel that you expect to use within a 30 day
period.
5. Store fuel only in a clean, safe, approved
container for petrol – not the fuel mixing
bottle provided.
Follow these steps to fill the tank:
1. Clean the surface around the fuel tank to
prevent contamination.
2. Loosen the fuel cap by turning it counter
clockwise.
3. Pour the fuel mixture carefully into the tank.
4. Clean and inspect the gasket.
NOTE: Replace the fuel cap if the gasket is
damaged.
5. Install the fuel cap and tighten it by turning
it clockwise.
Always stop the engine before filling
the tank. Never add fuel to a
machine with a running or hot
engine. Move at least 9m away from
the refuelling site before starting the
engine. Do not smoke while filling the
tank.
Filling the Tank
6. Wipe spilled fuel from the product.
7. Move at least 9 metres away before
starting the product.
NOTE: It is normal for the engine to emit

Starting the product depends on whether the engine is cold or warm.
Starting the Product
The recoil starter can be damaged by abuse.
Never pull the starter cord to its full length.
Always engage the starter before cranking the engine.
Always rewind the starter cord slowly.
Never operate the machine if the tubes are missing or damaged.
To Start a Cold Engine
Follow these steps to start a cold engine:
1. Lay the product on a flat bare surface.
2. Push the primer bulb repeatedly until fuel
comes into the primer pump. For new
engines or engines that have been refueled
this may require numerous attempts.
3. Pull the choke control to the fully extended
position (choke is closed).
4. Holding the machine handle firmly with
your right hand, pull the starter cord slowly
until you feel the starter engage.
5.
Start the machine by pulling the starter cord
upward rapidly. If necessary, repeat Step 5
two or three times until the engine starts.
NOTE: When starting the engine for the first
time, or after refueling, it may take longer for
the fuel to reach the engine and become
operational. You may need to repeat the steps
several times in order to start the engine. If the
engine will not start after repeated attempts,
you should open the throttle and choke fully,
and continue pulling the starter cord until the
motor starts, making sure there is no danger of
persons approaching the head while starting.
WARNING:
Operating the machine with loose, missing or damaged components could allow the
engine to over-speed, possibly causing serious engine damage.
Inspect the entire machine for damage, loose or missing components or fastenings and
repair as necessary.

until you feel the starter engage.
2. Start the machine by pulling the starter
cord upward rapidly.
If the engine does not start repeat the
appropriate starting procedures for “warm” or
“cold” engine. If the engine will not start, follow
the “Starting a Flooded Engine” procedure
below.
Starting a Flooded Engine
Follow these instructions to start a flooded
engine.
1. Disconnect the spark plug lead and use
the spark plug wrench supplied to remove

operating temperature is reached
(2-3 minutes).
3. Use a screwdriver to adjust the engine idle
speed to 2300-2500 rpm.
–Turn the idle screw clockwise to increase
engine idle speed.
– Turn the idle screw counter-clockwise to
decrease engine speed.
Incorrect spark plug installation can
