Readjust the throttle cable and switch wires so they are smooth and tight against the handlebar assembly. This will help prevent them from catching or snagging during normal operation. Fig. 3 Knobs FUELING THE UNiT OiL AND FUEL MiXiNG iNSTRUCTiONS The use of old and/or improperly mixed fuel is the most common cause of performance problems. Use only fresh, clean unleaded gasoline. Follow the instructions carefully for the proper gasoline/oil mixture. WARNING: Gasoline is extremely flammable. Ignited vapors may explode. Always stop the engine and allow it to cool before filling the fuel tank. Do not smoke while filling the tank. Keep sparks and open flames at a distance from the area. Definition of Blended Fuels Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxygenates such as ethanol, methanol or MTBE (ether). Alcohol-blended fuel absorbs water. As little as 1% water in the fuel can make fuel and oil separate, forming acids when stored. ALWAYS use fresh fuel (less than 30 days old). NOTE: Dispose of old fuel according to federal, state and local regulations. Using Blended WARNING: Remove the fuel cap slowly to avoid injury from fuel spray. Never operate the unit without the fuel cap securely in place. WARNING: Add fuel in a clean, well ventilated outdoor area. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately. Avoid creating a source of ignition for spilled fuel. Do not start the engine until fuel vapors dissipate. Fuels If using a blended fuel: • Always use the fresh fuel mix explained in your operator's manual Use the fuel additive STA-BIL® or an equivalent Always agitate the fuel mix before fueling the unit Drain the tank and run the engine dry before storing the unit 1. Position the unit with the fuel cap facing up. 2. Remove the fuel cap. 3. Place the fuel container spout into the fill hole on the fuel tank and fill the tank. NOTE: Do not overfill the tank.

Using Fuel Additives The bottle of 2-cycle oil provided with this unit contains a fuel additive to help inhibit corrosion and minimize gum deposits. Always use the brand of 2-cycle oil that came with this unit. If this is unavailable, use a 2-cycle oil designed for air-cooled engines and mix it with a fuel additive, such as STA-BIL Fuel Stabilizer or an equivalent. Add 0.8 oz. (23 ml) of fuel additive per gallon of fuel, according to the instructions on the container. NEVER add fuel additives directly to the unit's fuel tank. Mixing the Fuel NOTE: This unit comes with a 3.2 oz. bottle of 2-cycle oil. To obtain the correct fuel mixture described below, pour the entire bottle into one gallon of unleaded gasoline. CAUTION: For proper engine operation and maximum reliability, pay strict attention to the gasoline and oil mixing instructions on the 2-cycle oil bottle. Using improperly mixed fuel can severely damage the engine. Thoroughly mix the proper ratio of unleaded gasoline with 2-cycle engine oil. Do not mix them directly in the unit's fuel tank. Use a separate fuel can. Use a 40:1 gasoline/oil ratio. See the table below for specific gasoline and oil mixing ratios.
