Fuel Requirements
Gasoline - Use 89 Octane [R+M/2] (mid grade or higher) gasoline known to
be good quality. Gasoline may contain up to 10% Ethanol (grain alcohol) or
15% MTBE (methyl tertiary-butyl ether). Gasoline containing methanol
(wood alcohol) is NOT approved. Use of ECHO branded fuel is
recommended to extend engine life in all air-cooled 2-stroke and 2/4-stroke
hybrid engines.
Two Stroke Oil - A two-stroke engine oil, such as ECHO branded 2-stroke
oils, meeting ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. FD
Standards must
be used. ECHO branded 2-stroke oils meet these standards. Engine
problems due to inadequate lubrication caused by failure to use an ISO-L-
EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. M345-FD
certified oil will void the two-
stroke engine warranty.
2-Stroke engine oil contains petroleum distillates and other
additives that may be harmful if swallowed. Heated oil can
release vapors that can cause flash fire, or ignite with explosive
force. Read and follow the oil manufacturer’s instructions, and
observe all safety warnings and precautions for handling
flammable liquids. For more detailed safety and first aid
information, visit www.echo-usa.com for a copy of the Material
Safety Data Sheet.
◆ KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
◆ If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. CALL PHYSICIAN OR
A POISON CONTROL CENTER IMMEDIATELY.
◆ WEAR SAFETY GLASSES when mixing or handling.
◆ AVOID repeated or prolonged skin contact.
◆ AVOID inhaling oil mists or vapors.
ECHO branded 2-stroke oils may be mixed at 50:1 ratio for
application in all ECHO engines sold in the past regardless of ratio
specified in those manuals.
Handling Fuel
Fuel is VERY flammable. Use extreme care when mixing, storing
or handling, or serious personal injury may result.
