Fuel is VERY flammable. Use extreme care when mixing, storing or handling or serious personal injury may result.

• Use an approved fuel container. 

• DO NOT smoke near fuel.

• DO NOT allow flames or sparks near fuel.

• Fuel tanks/cans may be under pressure. Always loosen fuel caps slowly allowing pressure to equalize.

• NEVER refuel a unit when the engine is HOT or RUNNING!

• DO NOT fill fuel tanks indoors. ALWAYS fill fuel tanks outdoors over bare ground.

• DO NOT overfill fuel tank.  Wipe up spills immediately.

• Securely tighten fuel tank cap and close fuel container after refueling.

• Inspect for fuel leakage. If fuel leakage is found, do not start or operate unit until leakage is repaired.

• Move at least 3m (10 ft.) from refueling location before starting the engine.

1.  Fill an approved fuel container with half of the required amount of 

gasoline.

2.  Add the proper amount of 2-stroke oil to gasoline.

3.  Close container and shake to mix oil with gasoline.

4.  Add remaining gasoline,  close fuel container, and remix.

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.   

•  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 gov-

ernment for the laws affecting your area. As a precaution, store fuel in 

an approved, airtight container. Store in a well-ventilated, unoccupied 

building, away from sparks and flames. 

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.

Two stroke Oil - A two-stroke engine oil meeting ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. FC/FD Standards must 

be used. Echo brand premium Power Blend X 

TM

 Universal 2-Stroke Oil meets 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. FC/FD certified oil, such as 

Echo premium Power Blend X 

TM

, will void the two-stroke engine warranty.  

Echo premium Power Blend X 

TM

 Universal 2-Stroke Oil may be mixed at 50:1 ratio for application in all Echo en-

gines sold in the past regardless of ratio specified in those manuals.

Stored fuel ages. Do not mix more fuel 

than you expect to use in thirty (30) 

days, ninety (90) days when a fuel sta-

bilizer is added.  

Stored two-stroke fuel may separate. 

ALWAYS shake fuel container thor-

oughly before each use.
