■GASOLINE REQUIREMENTS

• All 2-Stroke RedMax Products are powered by RedMax Professional-Commercial Duty, Hi-Performance, Hi-RPM, Air Cooled 2-Stroke engines.

RedMax – Hi-Performance 2-stroke engines produce higher HP outputs as compared to standard Home Owner Duty or Light Commercial Duty production engines offered by most manufacturers.

• Exhaust emission are controlled by the fundamental engine parameters and components (eq., carburation, ignition timing and port timing) without addition of any major hardware or the introduction of an inert material during combustion.

• The RedMax Engines are registered and certified with CARB (California Air Resources Board) and EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) to operate on CLEAN Mid-grade 89 octane or Premium, unleaded (lead-free) gasoline and RedMax Air- Cooled "Max Life", Synthetic blend Premium two-stroke engine oil mixed at 50:1 ratio.

• Unleaded gasoline is recommended to reduce the contamination of the air for the sake of your health and the environment.

• This Hi-Performance Air Cooled 2-stroke Engine requires the

use of Minimum 89 Octane [ R+M ] (Mid grade or Premium) 2

clean gasoline. Gasoline may contain maximum of 10% Ethanol (grain alcohol) or up to 15% MTBE (Methyl tertiary-butyl ether). Gasoline containing Methanol (Wood Alcohol) is NOT approved.

NOTE

•IF octane rating of the Mid Grade gasoline in your area is lower than 89 Octane use Premium Unleaded Gasoline. The majority of all 2-stroke engine manufacturers in the USA and Canada recommend using gasoline with 89 Octane or higher.

WARNING

•Gasoline with an octane rating lower than 89 will greatly increase the engines operating temperature. Low octane gasoline will cause detonation (knock) resulting in piston seizures and major internal engine components damage.

•Poor quality gasolines or oils may damage sealing rings, fuel

•Alternative Fuels (Not Gasoline)

Alternative fuels, such as E-15 (15% ethanol), E-20 (20% ethanol), E-85 (85% ethanol) are NOT classified as gasoline and are NOT approved for use in RedMax 2-stroke gasoline engines. Use of alternative fuels will cause major engine performance and durability problems such as: improper clutch engagements, overheating, vapor lock, power loss, lubrication deficiency, deterioration of fuel lines, gaskets and internal carburetor components, etc... Alternative fuels cause high moisture absorption into the fuel/oil mixture leading to oil and fuel separation.

■OIL REQUIREMENTS

•Use only RedMax "Max Life", Synthetic blend Premium Air- Cooled two-stroke engine oil or oil certified to ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD1378) standard AND one that is JASO-FD registered. RedMax Air-Cooled "Max Life", Synthetic blend Premium two stroke engine oil and ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD1378) AND JASO-FD oils are fully compatible with gasoline's containing 10% Ethanol. RedMax Air-Cooled "Max Life", Synthetic blend Premium two stroke engine oil and ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD1378) AND JASO-FD oils are Universal and should be mixed at 50:1 ratio for all 2 stroke air cooled engines sold in the past regardless of mixing ratios specified in those manuals.

•If the oil is registered with JASO, the JASO Logo with FD and registration number will be displayed on the container. The highest JASO rating is "FD", which equals the ISO-L-EGD rating. Lower ratings are "FC", "FB", and "FA".

•Engine problems due to inadequate lubrication caused by failure to use ISO-L-EGD certified and JASO FD registered oil such as "MaxLife", RedMax Synthetic blend Premium 2-stroke oil WILL VOID THE REDMAX TWO-STROKE ENGINE

WARRANTY.

WARNING

•Do not use NMMA (National Marine Manufacturers Association), BIA (Boating Industry Association), and TCW (two cycle water cooled) oils designed for MoPeds or Outboard, water cooled Marine Engines. Do not use API (American Petroleum Institute), TC (Two Cycle) labeled oils. The API-TC
