HANDLING FUEL
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS -
1. Fill an approved fuel container with half of the required
amount of gasoline.
2. Add the proper amount of two-stroke oil to gasoline.
3. Close container and shake to mix oil with gasoline.
4. Add remaining gasoline, close fuel container, and re-
mix.
IMPORTANT
• Spilled fuel is a leading cause of hydrocarbon
emissions. Some states may require the use of
automatic fuel shut-off containers to reduce fuel
spillage.
• Stored fuel ages.
Do not mix more fuel than you expect to use in thirty
(30) days, ninety (90) days when a fuel stabilizer is
added.
• Stored two-stroke fuel may separate. ALWAYS shake
fuel container thoroughly before each use.
AFTER USE -
DO NOT store a unit with fuel in its tank. Leaks can occur.
Return unused fuel to an approved fuel storage container.
STORAGE -
Fuel storage laws vary by locality. Contact your local
government for the laws affecting your area. As a precau-
tion, store fuel in an approved, airtight container. Store in
a well-ventilated, unoccupied building, away from sparks
and ames.

CHAIN LUBRICANT
Proper lubrication of the chain while in operation reduces
friction between the chain and the guide bar to a mini-
mum and assures a longer service life.
• Use bar and chain oil of high quality for this purpose.
• Do not use used or reclaimed oil to avoid various oiler
problems.
• Use ECHO bar and chain oil.
• When ECHO bar and chain oil is not available:
Use motor oil, etc.
• Use bar and chain oil of the following grades:
SAE No. 30 ....... in summer
SAE No. 10 ....... in winter or when cutting resinous
trees.
• When refueling, also rell chain oil.
