Recommended Oil Type

Only use a two-cycle engine oil formulated for use in
high performance, air cooled two cycle engines.
MARUYAMA brand 2-cycle oil is formulated for use
in high performance, air cooled two-cycle engines.
IMPORTANT: Do not use National Marine
Manufacturer's Association (NMMA) or BIA
certified oils. This type of 2-cycle engine oil does
not have the proper additives for air cooled,
2-cycle engines and can cause engine damage.
Do not use automotive motor oil. This type of oil
does not have the proper additives for air cooled,
2-cycle engines and can cause engine damage.

Recommended Fuel Type

Use clean, fresh lead-free gasoline, including
oxygenated or reformulated gasoline, with an octane
rating of 85 or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase
only the quantity of gasoline that can be used in 30
days. Use of lead-free gasoline results in fewer
combustion chamber deposits and longer spark plug
life. Use of premium grade fuel is not necessary or
recommended.

Mixing Gasoline And Oil

IMPORTANT: The engine used on this Trimmer
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 specially
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.
