Fuel Requirements
Gasoline - Use 89 Octane [ ] gasoline or gasohol known to be
good quality. Gasohol may contain up to 10% Ethyl (grain) alcohol or
15% MTBE (methyl tertiary-butyl ether). Gasohol containing methyl
(wood) alcohol is NOT approved.
Two Stroke Oil - A two-stroke engine oil meeting ISO-L-EGD Standard
(ISO/CD 13738), must be used. Echo brand Premium 50:1 oil meets this
standard. Engine problems due to inadequate lubrication caused by
failure to use an ISO-L-EGD approved oil, such as Echo Premium 50:1
Two-stroke Oil, will void the two-stroke engine warranty. (Emission
related parts only are covered for two years, regardless of two-stroke
oil used, per the statement listed in the EPA Phase I/California Emission
Defect Warranty Explanation.)
Mixing - Follow directions on the oil container.
