TO MIX THE FUELSee Figure 3.? The product is powered by a 2-stroke engine and requires pre-mixing petrol with2-stroke oil. Pre-mix unleaded petrol and 2-stroke engine oil in a clean containerapproved for petrol.? The engine is certified to operate on unleaded petrol intended for automotive usewith an octane rating of 91 ([R+M]/2) or higher.? Do not use any type of pre-mixed petrol/oil from fuel service stations, such asthe pre-mixed petrol/oil intended for use in mopeds, motorcycles, etc. Do not useautomotive oil or 2-stroke outboard oil.? Use only synthetic 2-stroke oil.? Mix 2% of synthetic 2-stroke oil into the petrol. This is a 50:1 ratio
Most synthetic 2-strokes recommend 50:1 but being an old guy I would never use less than 40:1. Makes the engine last longer. Also only use husqvarna or echo synthetic 2-stroke oil with non-ethanol gas. your engine will run much cooler and last much longer.
if it is a 4 stroke mower you need a 4T oil. any brand will do although better brands mean better protection. lawn mowers arent too fussed with synthetic or mineral but you need a 4T oil. not actual vehicle engine oil. there is a difference.
if its a 2 stroke any good quality 2 stroke oil works as long as its not marine fortified stuff.the mower should tell you what ratio to use.
Yes, this scooter uses 4 stroke oil (also know as plain old motor oil) The manufacturer suggests Hi-Rev 740 synthetic 10W40 motor oil. You can order it here:
You can use any synthetic 10W40 oil. Not sure of the prices in the UK, but I assume it will be cheaper getting it elsewhere, rather than from the dealer/manufacturer. Hope this helps! P.S: You can order a manual for this bike here:
This is dependent upon what the engine application on the tiller is. If it's 2-stroke, use a quality synthetic or semi-synthetic 2-stroke oil mixed with the gas. If it has a 4 stroke engine use SAE30 oil, unless you run synthetic (which I highly recommend), then you can use a multi-viscosity oil if you like, say 10W-30.
A good rule of thumb is: In 2 stroke engines, use synthetic or synthetic-blend 2 stroke oil
In 4 strokes, if it is cold, using regular SAE oil...SAE 30 only...if using synthetic oil (highly recommended), then you can get away with using a multi-viscosity oil like 10-30. Synthetic 30 weight is OK too. Just in cold temps, standard multi-viscosity oil does not perform well and manufacturers like Briggs caution against using it, stating engine damage can result.
It all depends on what type (and brand) of two stroke oil you're using. For example, some non-synthetic two stroke oils are supposed to be mixed at a ratio of 20:1. While most synthetic oils are designed to be mixed anywhere from 36:1 to 100:1. Your best bet is to follow the advice of the folks at your dealer as to the type of oil to use - and then follow the recommended mixing ratio as detailed in the oil manufacturer's instructions.
