Mixing Fuel
Filling The Fuel Tank
1. Place the hedge trimmer on a flat, level
surface, and wipe any debris from
around the fuel cap.
2. Remove the fuel cap.
3. Fill the tank with clean, fresh fuel.
4. Replace the cap, and wipe away any
spilled fuel before starting the blower
engine.
WARNING!
Minimize the risk of fire,
burns, and personal injury!
 STOP engine before refueling.
 ALWAYS allow the engine to cool
before refueling
 ALWAYS open the fuel cap slowly
to allow any pressure build-up
in the tank to release fuel vapor
slowly.
 ALWAYS transport and store fuels
in an approved container.
 Avoid overfilling and wipe-up all
spilled fuel. Move the engine at
least 3 meters from the fueling
point, storage area, and other
readily flammable materials before
restarting.
 ALWAYS inspect the unit for fuel
leaks before each use. During
each refill, make sure there are no
fuel leaks around the fuel cap and/
or tank. If a fuel leak is evident,
stop using the unit immediately.
Fuel leaks must be repaired
before using the unit.
 Never smoke or light any fires
near the engine or fuel source.
 NEVER place any flammable
material near the engine or
muffler.
 NEVER operate the engine
without the muffler in good
working condition.
IMPORTANT!
Mix only enough fuel for your immediate
needs! If fuel must be stored longer than
30-days, it should first be treated with a
stabilizer such as StaBil™ or equivalent
product!
CAUTION!
Some gasolines contain alcohol as
an oxygenate! Oxygenated fuels may
cause increased operating tem-
peratures. Under certain conditions,
alcohol-based fuels may also reduce
the lubricating qualities of some mixing
oils. Never use any fuel containing
more than 10% alcohol by volume!
Generic oils and some outboard motor
oils may not be intended for use in
high-performance air cooled 2-cycle
engines, and should never be used in
your Shindaiwa engine!
CAUTION!
This engine is designed to operate on
a 50:1 mixture consisting of unleaded
gasoline and a premium 2-cycle mixing
oil only. Use of Non-approved mixing
oils can lead to excessive maintenance
costs and/or engine damage.
CAUTION!
Never attempt to mix fuel in the unit’s
fuel tank. Always mix all fuels in a
clean approved container.
1. Use only fresh, clean unleaded gasoline
with a pump octane rating of 87 or
higher.
2. Mixing fuel with a Premium 2-cycle
mixing oil designed for use with high-
performance 2-cycle air-cooled engines.
3. Refer to the following examples of 50:1
fuel to oil mix quantaties:
