2.8.2 Cleaning
Clean the machine and the working attach-
ment from soil, dust, grass, chips, and small
twigs, etc.
Clean the machine housing with a wet cloth
and a mild cleaning solution.
Put on all coatless flats a thin coat of oil.
2.8.3 Refuelling
The machine is run by a gasoline-oil mix-
ture. You need for the 2-Stroke engine a
fuel mixture of 25:1 (gasoline : oil).
Ensure yourself that no particles get into
the fuel tank 21 when refuelling (Fig. M).
Use a filter.
ZIPPER MASCHINEN strongly recommends the
usage of HQ premixed fuels especially recom-
mended for 2-stroke motors.
or
keep their consistency even after long periods
of storage.
If you prefer to mix your own fuel please use
HQ Synthetic Oil for 2-stroke engines.
Synthetic oil reduces accumulation of soot on
the spark plug, cylinder, engine cock and ex-
haust pipe. This increases the degree of lubri-
cation and prolongs the engines lifespan.
Use self-mixed fuel up within 4 weeks.

Cleaning the air filter

A clogged air filter reduces the engines power
output drastically and causes engine disfunc-
tion. Furthermore it reduces the engines life-
span!
Loosen the nut 22 and remove the cover of
the air filter 23 (Fig. O). Take out the air filter
(Fig. P) and clean the air filter (Fig. Q) with

Shake fuel tank prior to every us-
age! During storage oil descents
slowly in the fuel tank. If you
start the engine under this condi-
tion, it has barely any lubrication
which would lead to severe en-
gine damage.
