Fuel Recommendations

Mix Fuel and Oil
Use the provided bottle and mix gasoline and a high quality
2-cycle oil with a 25:1 gasoline-to-oil ratio.
Fuel must meet these requirements:
• Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline
• A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 RON).
• Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) or up to
15% MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.
caUTION Do not use unapproved gasoline, such as
E85. Do not modify the engine to run on alternate fuels. This
will damage the engine components and void the engine
warranty.
To protect the fuel system from gum formation, mix a fuel
stabilizer into the gasoline. See Storage. All fuel is not the
same. If starting or performance problems occur, change
the fuel providers or change brands.

OPeRaTION

WaRNING Gasoline and its vapors are extremely
flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
When adding Fuel
• Turn engine off and let engine cool at least 2 minutes
before removing the fuel cap.
• Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well-ventilated area.
• Do not overfill fuel tank. To allow for expansion of
gasoline, do not fill above the bottom of the fuel tank
neck.
• Keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
• Check fuel lines, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for
cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
• If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting
engine.
