Never mix fuel in the edger.
3. Place the edger upright on the ground or on
a sturdy bench and wipe any debris from around the
fuel cap.
4. Unscrew the fuel tank cap and pour the mixture into
the tank.
5. Be careful not to spill any mixture. If this happens, wipe
the spill with a clean rag.
6. Start the engine at least three metres away from the
area where the fuel tank has been filled up in order to
avoid any risk of fire.
• Danger of fire and burn injury.
• Always use extreme care when handling fuel! Fuel is
highly flammable.
• Never attempt to fuel the edger if the fuel system
components are damaged or are leaking.
• Never attempt the refuel the engine while it is running
or still warm, allow it to cool before fueling.
