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 

problems, 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, 

carburetors 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 alco-

hol) 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

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.

-

gines sold in the past regardless of ratio specified in those manuals.
