Filling the Fuel Tank
WARNING!
Minimize the risk of re!
STOP engine before refueling.
ALWAYS allow the engine to cool
before refueling!
Wipe all spilled fuel and move the
engine at least 10 feet (3 meters)
from the fueling point and source
before restarting!
NEVER start or operate this unit if
there is a fuel leak.
NEVER start or operate this unit if
the carburetor, fuel lines, fuel tank
and/or fuel tank cap are damaged.
NEVER smoke or light any res
near the engine or fuel source!
NEVER place any ammable ma-

Mixing Fuel
CAUTION!
This engine is designed to operate on
a 50:1 mixture consisting of unleaded
gasoline and ISO-L-EGD or JASO FC
class 2-cycle mixing oil only. Use of
non-approved mixing oils can lead to
excessive carbon deposits.
CAUTION!
Some types of gasoline contain alcohol
as an oxygenate. Oxygenated gaso-
line may cause increased operating
temperatures. Under certain condi-
tions, alcohol-based gasoline may also
reduce the lubricating qualities of some
2-cycle mixing oils. Never use any
type of gasoline containing more than
10% alcohol by volume! Generic oils
and some outboard oils may not be
intended for use in high-performance
2-cycle engines, and should never be
used in your Shindaiwa engine
.
Use only fresh, clean unleaded gasoline
with a pump octane of 87 or higher.
Mix all fuel with a 2-cycle air-cooled mix-
ing oil that meets or exceeds
ISO-L-EGD and/or JASO FC classified
oils at 50:1 gasoline/oil ratio.
Examples of 50:1 mixing quantities
1 gallon of gasoline to 2.6 oz. mixing oil
5 liters of gasoline to 100 ml. mixing oil
IMPORTANT!
Mix only enough fuel for your immediate
needs! If fuel must be stored longer than
30 days and oil with fuel stabilizer
is not used, it should rst be treated with a
fuel stabilizer such as STA-BIL™.
Oil is a registered JASO FC clas-
sified oil and also meets or exceeds ISO-L-
EGD performance requirements. Shindaiwa
One is recommended for use in all Shindaiwa
low emissions engines.Shindaiwa One also
includes a fuel stabilizer.
