what type of petrol do I use for it, does it have to be mixed one?

No. It's a 4 stroke engine. Normal unleaded fuel is fine.

Hi there, my partner bought a whaker plate that arrived today. There was no manuel saying what fuel to use. He needs to know if its 4 stroke or 2 stro

They are usually a 4 stroke engine so usually use normal unleaded. Most site tools that are 2 stroke (chainsaws etc) Have a label stating the required mix. 40:1 usually.

How much oil do you put in this

Hi Just the sump was 3/4 full Had to use a funnel to fill it Cheers

Great product, arrived before time & put to use immediately. Bought to use on a 400sq ft patio initially, perfect for the job, next project a driveway twice the size of the patio. Couldn't have done the job without it & recommended, only down side is that I couldn't buy the wheels (at the time) to transport it, wheels purchased since. Well worth the money...

Not very good

Screws missing for main engine mount. Vibration very low after getting it fixed my self. Couldn't return because of the time of purchase it wasn't needed. Throttle leaver is very thin metal and bends.

Greta Little machine.

Took a while to get started the very first time but after that was not to much effort. Three or full pulls after standing for a week. The throttle on the handle is a great feature. Compacts well and wish I’d bought the wheel kit with it for ease of transport.
