NOTICE:

 Use of unmixed, improperly mixed, or fuel older than 90 days, (stale fuel), may cause hard starting, poor 

performance, or severe engine damage and void the product warranty. Read and follow instructions in the Storage 

section of this manual.

  

 WARNING 

Alternative fuels, such as E-15 (15% ethanol), E-85 (85% ethanol) or any fuels not meeting ECHO requirements are 

NOT

 approved for use in ECHO 2-stroke gasoline engines.  Use of alternative fuels may cause performance prob-

lems, loss of power, overheating, fuel vapor lock, and unintended machine operation, including, but not limited to, 

improper clutch engagement.  Alternative fuels may also cause premature deterioration of fuel lines, gaskets, carbu-

retors and other engine components.

 

Fuel Requirements 

Gasoline - 

Use 89 Octane [R+M/2] (mid grade or higher) 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 (ISO/CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. 

FC/FD Standards must 

be used. Echo brand premium Power Blend X 

TM

 Universal 2-Stroke Oil meets these standards. Engine problems due to 

inadequate lubrication caused by failure to use an ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. 

FC/FD

 certified oil, such as 

Echo premium Power Blend X 

TM

, will void the two-stroke engine warranty.
