•The engine is lubricated by oil mixed into gasoline. Prepare a mixture of unleaded,
Recommended mixing ratio is 32 : 1
or 50 : 1 with RedMax JASO/ISO Oil.
•Do not mix fuels which have been left unused for a period of one month or more.
•Make sure to use gasoline with a minimum octane number of 90 ROZ(USA/Canada : pump octane min.87)
