FUEL: MIXING GASOLINE AND OIL
CAUTION!
The engine used on this product is of a 2-stroke design. The internal moving parts of the
engine, i.e., crankshaft bearings, piston pin bearings and piston to cylinder wall contact surfaces,
require oil mixed with the gasoline for lubrication. Failure to add oil to the gasoline or failure to mix oil
with the gasoline at the appropriate ratio will cause major engine damage which will void your warranty.
For your fuel premix, only use Maruyama 50:1 2-Stroke Oil or a quality oil designed for 2-stroke air-
cooled engine.
FUEL MIXTURE:
When using genuine Maruyama 50:1 2-Stroke Oil, or a quality oil designed for 2-
stroke air-cooled engines, oil ratio is 50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil or 50:1.
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, 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 product. 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 product.
When refilling the 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. Do not mix gasoline and oil directly in the product 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.
