IMPORTANT:
operate on unleaded gasoline with a minimum
87 octane (R+M/2 method), with ethanol
blended up to 10% maximum by volume (E-10).
Before operation, gasoline must be mixed with a
good quality synthetic 2-cycle air-cooled engine
oil designed to be mixed at a ratio of 40:1.
Poulan/WEED EATER brand synthetic oil is
recommended. Mix gasoline and oil at a ratio of
40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 3.2 fluid
ounces of oil with 1 gallon of unleaded gasoline.
DO NOT USE automotive oil or marine oil.
These oils will cause engine damage. When
mixing fuel, follow instructions printed on
container. Once oil is added to gasoline, shake
container momentarily to assure that the fuel is
thoroughly mixed. Always read and follow the
safety rules relating to fuel before fueling your
unit. Purchase fuel in quantities that can be used
within 30 days to assure fuel freshness.
