Oil and Fuel

DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
・In certain conditions gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
・A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn
you, others and cause property damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
・Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors,
in an open area, when the engine is cold.
Wipe up any gasoline that spills.
・Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the
level is 1/4" to 1/2" ( 6 mm to 13mm )
below the bottom of the filler neck. This
empty space in the tank allows gasoline
to expand.
・Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fume may be ignited by a spark.
・Store gasoline in an approved container and
keep it out of the reach of children.
・Never buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline.
1. Do not smoke near fuel.
2. Mix and pour fuel outdoors and where there are
no sparks or flames.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
• Gasoline contains gasses that can build
up pressure inside a gas tank.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• Fuel can be sprayed on you when
removing gas cap.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
• Remove fuel cap slowly to avoid injury
from fuel spray.
3. Always shut off the engine before refueling.
Never remove the fuel tank cap while the engine is
running or right after just stopping the engine.
4. Always open the fuel tank cap slowly to release
any possible overpressure inside the tank.
5. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Stop filling 1/4-1/2 inch
(6 mm-13 mm) from the top of the tank.
6. Tighten the tank fuel cap carefully but firmly after
refilling.
7. Wipe up any spilled fuel before starting the engine.
8. Move the unit at least 10 feet (3 m) away from the
fueling location and fuel storage container before
starting the engine.

Recommended Oil Type

Only use a two-cycle engine oil formulated for use in
high performance, air cooled two cycle engines.
MARUYAMA brand 2-cycle oil is formulated for use
in high performance, air cooled two-cycle engines.

Manufacturer's Association (NMMA) or BIA
certified oils. This type of 2-cycle engine oil
does not have the proper additives for air
cooled, 2-cycle engines and can cause engine
damage.
Do not use automotive motor oil. This type of
oil does not have the proper additives for air
cooled, 2-cycle engines and can cause engine
damage.

Recommended Fuel Type

Use clean, fresh lead-free gasoline, including oxygenated
or reformulated gasoline, with an octane rating of 89
or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase only the quantity
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.
