Fuel

This engine is certified to operate on
unleaded gasoline and the STIHL two-
stroke engine oil at a mix ratio of 50:1.
Your engine requires a mixture of high-
quality gasoline and two-stroke air
cooled engine oil.
Use mid-grade unleaded gasoline with a
minimum octane rating of 89 ((R+M)/2)
and no more than 10% ethanol content.
Fuel with an octane rating below 89 may
increase engine temperatures. This, in
turn, increases the risk of piston seizure
and damage to the engine.
The chemical composition of the fuel is
also important. Some fuel additives not
only detrimentally affect elastomers
(carburetor diaphragms, oil seals, fuel
lines, etc.), but magnesium castings and
catalytic converters as well. This could
cause running problems or damage the
engine. For this reason STIHL
recommends that you use only quality
unleaded gasoline!
Gasoline with an ethanol content of
more than 10% can cause running
problems and major damage in engines
and should not be used.
For further details, see
www.STIHLusa.com/ethanol
The ethanol content in gasoline affects
engine speed – it may be necessary to
readjust the carburetor if you use fuels
with various ethanol contents.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury
from loss of control and / or contact with
the running cutting tool, do not use your
unit with incorrect idle adjustment. At
correct idle speed, the cutting tool
should not move.
If your power tool´s idle speed is
incorrectly adjusted, have your
authorized STIHL servicing dealer
check your machine and make the
proper adjustments and repairs.
The idle speed and maximum speed of
the engine change if you switch from a
fuel with a certain ethanol content to
another fuel with a much higher or lower
ethanol content.
This problem can be avoided by always
using fuel with the same ethanol
content.
To ensure the maximum performance of
your STIHL engine, use a high quality 2-
cycle engine oil, such as STIHL 2-cycle
engine oils. STIHL 2-cycle engine oils
are specially designed for STIHL
engines. To help your engine run
cleaner and reduce harmful carbon
deposits, STIHL recommends using
STIHL HP Ultra 2-cycle engine oil, or
use an equivalent high quality 2-cycle
engine oil.
To meet the requirements of EPA and
CARB we recommend to use STIHL HP
Ultra oil or equivalent.
Do not use NMMA or TCW rated (two-
stroke water cooled) mix oils or other
mix oils that state they are for use in both
water cooled and air cooled engines
(e.g., outboard motors, snowmobiles,
chain saws, mopeds, etc.).
