Using improperly mixed fuel can severely damage the engine. Thoroughly mix the proper ratio of 2-cycle engine oil with unleaded gasoline in a separate fuel can. Use a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio. Do not mix them directly in the engine fuel tank. See the table below for specific gas and oil mixing ratios. NOTE: One gallon (3.8 liters) of unleaded gasoline mixed with one 3.2 oz. (95 ml.) bottle of 2-cycle oil makes a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio. + UNLEADED GAS 2 CYCLE OIL 1 GALLON US 3.2 FL. OZ. (3.8 LITERS) (95 ml) 1 LITER 25 ml MIXING RATIO - 40:1 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. WARNING: Remove 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 spilt fuel. Do not start the engine until fuel vapors dissipate. WARNING: NOTE: Dispose of the old fuel/oil mix in accordance to Federal, State and Local regulations. FILLING THE FUEL TANK Make sure the cultivator is in a horizontal position when filling or adding fuel to the tank.
