FUEL; MIXING GASOLINE AND OIL
CAUTION! If Maruyama brand oil is not used,
never use a mixing ratio less than 50:1
regardless of the oil package mixing
instructions. Ratios less the 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:
Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container approved for gasoline.
Mark the container to identify it as fuel mix for the Backpack Blower. Use regular unleaded
gasoline and fill the container with half the required amount of gasoline. Pour the correct amount
of oil into the container then add the remaining amount of gasoline. Close the container tightly and
shake it momentarily to evenly mix the oil and the gasoline before filling the fuel tank on the
Backpack Blower.
When refilling the Backpack Blower fuel tank, clean around the fuel tank cap to prevent dirt and
debris for entering the tank during cap removal. Always shake the premix fuel container
momentarily before filling the fuel tank.
Always use a spout or funnel when fueling to reduce fuel spillage. Only fill the tank to within 1/2
inch from the top of the tank. Avoid filing to the top of the tank filler neck.
NOTE:
1.
Never mix gasoline and oil directly in the Backpack Blower fuel tank.
CAUTION!
1.
Do not use National Marine Manufacturer’s Association (NMMA) or BIA certified oils. This type
or 2-stroke engine oil does not have the proper additives for air-cooled, 2-stroke engines and
can cause engine damage.
2.
Do not use automotive motor oil. This type of oil does not have the proper additives for air-
cooled, 2-stroke engines and can cause engine damage.
