GASOLINE - Use 89 Octane [(R+M)/2] (mid grade or higher) gasoline or gasohol known to be good quality.

Gasohol may contain up to 10 % Ethyl (grain) alcohol or 15 % MTBE (methyl teriary-butyl ether). Gasohol containing methyl (wood) alcohol is NOT approved.

TWO-STROKE OIL - A two-stroke engine oil meeting ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and JASO M345-FC/FD Standards must be used. ECHO brand premium Power Blend X™ 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 JASO M345-FC/FD certified oil, such as ECHO premium Power Blend X™, will void the two-stroke engine warranty.

IMPORTANT

ECHO premium Power Blend X™ Universal 2- Stroke Oil may be mixed at 50 : 1 ratio for application in all ECHO engines sold in the past regardless of ratio specified in those manuals.

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.
