• Gasoline is very flammable. Avoid

smoking or bringing any flame or
sparks near fuel. Make sure to stop the
engine and allow it cool before
refueling the unit. Select outdoor bare
ground for fueling and move at least
3m(10ft) away from the fueling stop
before starting the engine. 

• The RedMax engines are lubricated by oil

specially formulated for air-cooled 2-cycle
gasoline engine use. If RedMax oil is not
available. Use an anti-oxidant added
quality oil expressly labeled for air-cooled
2-cycle engine use.

RECOMMENDED MIXING RATIO

GASOLINE 32:OIL 1

• Exhaust emission are controlled by the

fundamental engine parameters and
components(eq., carburation, ignition
timing and port timing) without addition
of any major hardware or the
introduction of an inert material during
combustion.

• These engines are certified to operate on

unleaded gasoline.

• Make sure to use gasoline with a minimum

octane number of 90 ROZ(USA/Canada :
pump octane min.87)

• Unleaded gasoline is recommended to

reduce the contamination of the air for the
sake of your health and the environment.

WARNING

• Poor quality gasolines or oils may damage

sealing rings, fuel lines or fuel tank of the
engine.

■ 

HOW TO MIX FUEL

1. Measure out the quantities of gasoline and

oil to be mixed.

2. Put some of the gasoline into a clean,

approved fuel container.

3. Pour in all of the oil and agitate well.
4. Pour in the rest of gasoline and agitate

again for at least one minute.

5. Put a clear indication on the outside of the

container to avoid mixing up with gasoline
or other containers.

6. Indicate the contents on outside of

container for easy identification. 

■ 

FUELING THE UNIT

1. Untwist and remove the fuel cap. Rest the

cap on a dustless place.

2. Put fuel into the fuel tank to 80% of the full

capacity.

3. Fasten the fuel cap securely and wipe up

any fuel spillage around the unit.

1. Select bare ground for fueling.
2. Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) away

from the fueling point before starting
the engine.

3. Stop the engine before refueling the

unit.

FOR YOUR ENGINE LIFE, AVOID;
1. FUEL WITH NO OIL(RAW GASOLINE) –

It will cause severe damage to the internal
engine parts very quickly.

2. GASOHOL – It can cause deterioration of

rubber and/or plastic parts and disruption
of engine lubrication.

3. OIL FOR 4-CYCLE ENGINE USE or

WATER COOLED 2-CYCLE ENGINE
USE – It can cause spark plug  fouling,
exhaust port blocking, or piston ring
sticking.

4. Mixed fuels which have been left

unused for a period of one month or
more 
may clog the carburetor or result in
the engine failing to operate properly.
