FUEL _m"_R_ • Your unit is powered by a Z-cycle engine which requires a fuel mixture of regular unleaded gasoline and a high quality en* oil spec_)aily made for 2-cycle, air cooled engines. The "mtem_ design of the 2-cycle engine requires lubrication ofraoving parts. _on is provided when recom- mended mixture of gasoline and oil is used. • Gasoline must be clean and fresh. After a short period of time, gasoline will chemically break down and form-compounds that cause hard starting and damage in 2-cycle engines. • The correct measure of gasoline to oil is very nnportant. Too much oil in the mixture will foul the spar_plug. Too little oil w£11 cause the engine to over heat and seize, A CAUTION Experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanoD van attract mo_ which leads to separation and format]on.ofacads duringstorag_ Acidic gas can tlamage the fttel sy_em ofan engine while in stor- age,, TO avoid engine problems, do not leave fuel in the unit when s_g for 30 days or longer.

The "mtem_ design of the 2-cycle engine requires lubrication ofraoving parts. _on is provided when recom- mended mixture of gasoline and oil is used. • Gasoline must be clean and fresh. After a short period of time, gasoline will chemically break down and form-compounds that cause hard starting and damage in 2-cycle engines. • The correct measure of gasoline to oil is very nnportant.
