OIL AND FUEL INFORMATION
OIL AND FUEL MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Old and/or improperly mixed fuel are the main reasons for
the unit not running properly. Be sure to use fresh, clean
unleaded fuel. Follow the instructions carefully for the proper
fuel/oil mixture.
DEFINITION OF BLENDED FUELS
Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxygenates
such as ethanol, methanol or MTBE (ether). Alcohol-blended
fuel absorbs water. As little as 1% water in the fuel can make
fuel and oil separate. It forms acids when stored. When using
alcohol-blended fuel, use fresh fuel (less than 60 days old).
USING BLENDED FUELS
If you choose to use a blended fuel, or its use is unavoidable,
follow recommended precautions.
• Always use fresh fuel mix per your operator's manual.
• Use the fuel additive STA-BIL® or an equivalent.
• Always agitate the fuel mix before fueling the unit.
• Drain the tank and run the engine dry before storing the
unit.
USING FUEL ADDITIVES
The use of fuel additive, such as STA-BIL® Gas Stabilizer or
an equivalent, will inhibit corrosion and minimize the formation
of gum deposits. Using a fuel additive can keep fuel from
forming harmful deposits in the carburetor for up to six (6)
months. Add 0.8 oz. (23 ml.) of fuel additive per gallon of fuel
according to the instructions on the container. NEVER add
fuel additives directly to the unit's fuel tank.
CAUTION:
For proper engine operation and maximum reliability,
pay strict attention to the oil and fuel mixing instructions
on the 2-cycle oil container. Using improperly mixed
fuel can severely damage the engine.
Thoroughly mix the proper ratio of 2-cycle engine oil with
unleaded gasoline in a separate fuel can. Use a 32:1 fuel/oil
ratio. Do not mix them directly in the engine fuel tank. See the
table below for specific gas and oil mixing ratios.
NOTE: One gallon (3.8 liters) of unleaded gasoline mixed
with one 4 oz. (120 ml.) bottle of RYOBI 2 CYCLE
OIL makes a 32:1 fuel/oil ratio.

WARNING:
Gasoline is extremely flammable. Ignited Vapors
may explode. Always stop the engine and allow it to
cool before filling the fuel tank. Do not smoke while
filling the tank. Keep sparks and open flames at a
distance from the area.
WARNING:
Remove fuel cap slowly to avoid injury from fuel
spray. Never operate the unit without the fuel cap
securely in place.
WARNING:
Add fuel in a clean, well ventilated area outdoors.
Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately. Avoid creating
a source of ignition for spilt fuel. Do not start the
engine until fuel vapors dissipate.
NOTE: Dispose of the old fuel/oil mix in accordance to
Federal, State, and Local regulations.
