or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase only the quan-
tity of gasoline that can be used in 30 days. Use of lead-
free gasoline results in fewer combustion chamber
deposits and longer spark plug life. Use of premium
grade fuel is not necessary or recommended.
Use Of Fuel Additives
IMPORTANT: NEVER USE ALCOHOL,
GASOHOL CONTAINING MORE THAN
10% ALCOHOL BECAUSE ENGINE FUEL
SYSTEM DAMAGE COULD RESULT.
DO NOT USE FUEL ADDITIVES OTHER
THAN THOSE MANUFACTURED FOR
FUEL STABILIZATION DURING STORAGE
SUCH AS MARUYAMA'S STABILIZER/
CONDITIONER OR A SIMILAR PRODUCT.
MARUYAMA'S STABILIZER/CONDITION-
ER IS A PETROLEUM DISTILLATE BASED
CONDITIONER/STABILIZER.
MARUYAMA DOES NOT RECOMMEND
STABILIZERS WITH AN ALCOHOL BASE
SUCH AS ETHANOL, METHANOL OR ISO-
PROPYL. ADDITIVES SHOULD NOT BE
USED TO TRY TO ENHANCE THE POWER
OR PERFORMANCE OF MACHINE.
Mixing Gasoline And Oil
IMPORTANT: The engine used on this Multi -
Cutter is of a two-stroke design. The internal
moving parts of the engine, i.e., crankshaft bear-
ings, piston pin bearings and piston to cylinder
wall contact surfaces, require oil mixed with the
gasoline for lubrication.
Failure to add oil to the gasoline or failure to
mix oil with the gasoline at the appropriate ratio
will cause major engine damage which will void
your warranty.
For your fuel premix, use MARUYAMA
Premium two-stroke Oil Mix, or equivalent
ISO-L-EGD & JASO FD oil with a minimum
89 octane high Quality gasoline. MARUYAMA
two-stroke oil is specially formulated to meet
the requirements of high-performance,
low-emission air-cooled two-stroke engines. Use
of other oils may lead to service issues which
may Not be covered by your warranty.
Fuel Mixture
The fuel: oil ratio is 50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil or
50:1.
Note: Never use a mixing ratio less than 50:1
regardless of the oil package mixing instruc-
tions. Ratios less than 50:1, (for example,
60:1, 80:1, 100:1), reduce the amount of
lubrication to the internal moving parts of
the engine and can cause damage.

Mixing Instructions
IMPORTANT: Never mix gasoline and
oil directly in the Multi - Cutter fuel tank.
1.
Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container
approved for gasoline.
2.
Mark the container to identify it as fuel mix for
the Multi - Cutter.
3.
Use regular unleaded gasoline and fill the contain-
er with half the required amount of gasoline.
4.
Pour the correct amount of oil into the container
then add the remaining amount of gasoline.
5.
Close the container tightly and shake it momentar-
ily to evenly mix the oil and the gasoline before
filling the fuel tank on the Multi - Cutter.
