Fuel and oil mixing
(1) Mixing ratio of fuel and oil: 20- 25 : 1
Example: 20 : t = gasoline 1 gal : oil 7 oz.
25 : 1 = gasoline 1 gal, : oil 6 oz,
(2) Pour half the gasoline into the container, add oil and
shake to ensure thorough mixing, Now add the
remainder of gasoline and shake again
WARNING: Experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels
{called gasohot or using ethanol or methanol) can attract
moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an
engine while in storage
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied
before storage for 30 days or longer Drain the gas tank, start
the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor
are empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage Instructions
for additional information.
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel
tank or permanent damage may occur
CAUTION:
When preparing fuel mixture, mix onty the amount
needed for the job you are to do Do not use fuel mixture
that has been stored longer than two (2) months. Fuel
mixture stored longer than this will cause hard starting
and poor performance if fuel mix has been stored
longer than this time it should be removed and filled
with a fresh mixture.
Use only a good grade of recJular gasoline,
Use only a reputable brand of 2{ycte, air cooled engine
oil, Sears Chain Saw Oil is especially suited to this
engine,
For the first twenty hours, use the mixing ratio of be-
tween 15 and 20 to 1,
