The combustion engine of a brush cutter is very sensitive and requires the right fuel mixture to guarantee long-term operation and avoid engine damage. Petrol brushcutters are fuelled with a mixture of petrol and engine oil. Since the mixing ratio differs depending on the device, it is always necessary to consult the operating manual of the brush cutter.
Which engine is installed in your brush cutter is decisive for determining the correct fuel mixture. If it is a 2-stroke engine, the mixing ratio is often 1:50, i.e. 1 part oil and 50 parts petrol. Classic super petrol, which is also used for refuelling cars, is suitable for this purpose. The engine oil should be TC-classified.
To make the fuel mixture, you need an empty canister that is approved for fuel. First fill the canister with the engine oil and then with the appropriate amount of petrol. Finally, mix the petrol-engine oil solution thoroughly.
