Fuel Requirements
Gasoline - Use 89 Octane [ ] (mid grade or higher) gasoline or
gasohol known to be good quality. Gasohol may contain up to 10%
Ethyl (grain) alcohol or 15% MTBE (methyl tertiary-butyl ether).
Gasohol containing methyl (wood) alcohol is NOT approved.
Two Stroke Oil - A two-stroke engine oil meeting ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD
13738) and JASO FC standards, must be used. Echo brand Premium 50:1
oil meets these standards. Engine problems due to inadequate lubrica-
tion caused by failure to use an ISO-L-EGD and JASO FC certified oil,
such as Echo Premium 50:1 Two-stroke Oil, will void the two-stroke
engine warranty. (Emission related parts only are covered for two
years, regardless of two-stroke oil used, per the statement listed in the
California Emission Defect Warranty Explanation.)
Mixing - Follow directions on the oil container.
