FUEL STATEMENT

Gasoline - Use 89 Octane (R+M/2) gasoline or gasohol known

to be good quality. Gasohol may contain maximum 10% ethyl

(grain) alcohol or 15% MTBE (methyl tertiary-butyl ether).

Gasohol containing methy (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 inad-

equate 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 or the California Emissions Defect

Warranty Explanation.)

Mixing - Follow directions on the oil container.

IMPORTANT

Stored fuel ages. Do not mix more fuel than you expect to

use in thirty (30) days, ninety (90) days when a fuel stabi-

lizer is added.

Stored two-stroke fuel may separate. ALWAYS shake fuel

container thoroughly before each use.

CHAIN LUBRICANT

Proper lubrication of the chain while in operation reduces friction

between the chain and the guide bar to a minimum 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 refill chain oil.
