3. Setup u Assemblea

This section details the assembly of the main unit and the attachment of various tools.

3.1 Taħlit tal-Fjuwil

The BCU52M uses a 2-stroke engine and requires a specific petrol/oil mixture. Refer to the engine manufacturer's recommendations for the exact mixing ratio, typically 25:1 or 50:1 (petrol:2-stroke oil). Use fresh, unleaded petrol and high-quality 2-stroke engine oil.

  4. Shake the container to mix thoroughly.
  5. Add the remaining petrol and shake again.
  6. Fill the tool's fuel tank (1 liter capacity) carefully, avoiding spills.

Warning: Never use pure petrol or an incorrect fuel mixture, as this will damage the engine and void the warranty.

3.2 Attaching the Shaft and Handle

  1. Connect the main engine unit to the shaft. Ensure the connection is secure.
  2. Attach the handle assembly to the shaft at a comfortable operating position. Tighten all fasteners firmly.
