DO NOT USE FUEL ADDITIVES OTHER
THAN THOSE MANUFACTURED FOR
FUEL STABILIZATION DURING STORAGE
SUCH AS MARUYAMA'S STABILIZER/
CONDITIONER OR A SIMILAR PRODUCT.
MARUYAMA'S STABILIZER/CONDITIONER
IS A PETROLEUM DISTILLATE BASED
CONDITIONER/STABILIZER.
MARUYAMA DOES NOT RECOMMEND
STABILIZERS WITH AN ALCOHOL BASE
SUCH AS ETHANOL, METHANOL OR
ISOPROPYL. ADDITIVES SHOULD NOT BE
USED TO TRY TO ENHANCE THE POWER
OR PERFORMANCE OF MACHINE.
Mixing Gasoline and Oil
IMPORTANT: The engine used on this
Trimmer/Brushcutter is of a 2-cycle 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, use Maruyama Premium
2-cycle Oil Mix, or equivalent ISO-L-EGD &
JASO FD oil with a minimum 89 octane high
quality gasoline. Maruyama 2-cycle oil is spe-
cially formulated to meet the requirements of
high-performance, low-emission air-cooled
2-cycle engines. Use of other oils may lead to
service issues which may not be covered by your
warranty.
Fuel Mixture
The fuel: oil ratio is 50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil or
50:1.

Note:
Never use a mixing ratio less than
50:1 regardless of the oil package
mixing instructions. Ratios less than
50:1, (for example, 60:1, 80:1, 100:1),
reduce the amount of lubrication
to the internal moving parts of the
engine and can cause damage.

IMPORTANT: Never mix gasoline and oil
directly in the Trimmer/Brushcutter fuel tank.
Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container
approved for gasoline.
Mark the container to identify it as fuel mix for
the Trimmer/Brushcutter.
Use regular unleaded gasoline and fill the con-
tainer 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 momen-
tarily to evenly mix the oil and the gasoline before
filling the fuel tank on the Trimmer/Brushcutter.
When refilling the Trimmer/Brushcutter fuel tank,
clean around the fuel tank cap to prevent dirt and
debris from entering the tank during cap removal.
Always shake the premix fuel container momen-
tarily before filling the fuel tank.
Always use a spout or funnel when fueling to
reduce fuel spillage.
