FUEL

Fuel Requirements --

Gasoline - Use 89 Octane [         ] gasoline known to be good quality.
Gasoline may contain up to 10% Ethanol (grain alcohol) or 15% MTBE
(methyl tertiary-butyl ether). Gasoline containing methanol (wood
alcohol) is NOT approved.

Two Stroke Oil - A two-stroke engine oil meeting ISO-L-EGD Standard
(ISO/CD 13738), must be used. Echo brand Premium 50:1 oil meets this
standard. Engine problems due to inadequate lubrication caused by
failure to use an ISO-L-EGD approved 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 EPA Phase I/California Emis-
sion Defect Warranty Explanation.)

Mixing - Follow directions on the oil container.
