6. Fuel and chain oil
■ FUEL
The RedMax engines are lubricated by oil specially
formulated for air-cooled 2-cycle gasoline engine
use. If RedMax oil is not available, use an anti-
oxidant added quality oil expressly labeled for air-
cooled 2-cycle engine use.
RECOMMENDED MIXING RATIO
GASOLINE 32 : OIL 1
Exhaust emission are controlled by the
fundamental engine parameters and
components (eq., carburation, ignition timing
and port timing) without addition of any major
hardware or the introduction of an inert
material during combustion.
These engines are certified to operate on
unleaded gasoline.
The fuel is highly flammable. Do not smoke or
bring any flame or sparks near fuel.
■ HOW TO MIX FUEL
1. Measure out the quantities of gasoline and oil to
be mixed.
2. Put some of the gasoline into a clean, approved
fuel container.
3. Pour in all of the oil and agitate well.
4. Pour in the rest of gasoline and agitate again for
at least one minute.
5. Put a clear indication on the outside of the
container to avoid mixing up with gasoline or
other containers.
FOR YOUR ENGINE LIFE, AVOID;
1. FUEL WITH NO OIL(RAW GASOLINE) – It will
cause severe damage to the engine inner parts
very quickly.
2. GASOHOL – It can cause deterioration of rubber
and/or plastic parts and disruption of engine
lubrication.
3. OIL FOR 4-CYCLE ENGINE USE or WATER
COOLED 2-CYCLE ENGINE USE – It can
cause spark plug fouling, exhaust port blocking,
or piston ring sticking.
