Recommended Oil Type
Only use a two-stroke engine oil formulated for use in
high-performance, air-cooled two-stroke engines.
MARUYAMA brand two-stroke oil is formulated for
use in high-performance, air-cooled two-stroke
engines.

certified oils. This type of two-stroke engine oil
does not have the proper additives for aircooled,
two-stroke engines and can cause engine damage.
Do not use automotive motor oil. This type of oil
does not have the proper additives for aircooled,
two-stroke engines and can cause engine damage.
Recommended Fuel Type
Use clean, fresh lead-free gasoline, including oxygenat-
ed or reformulated gasoline, with an octane rating of 89
or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase only the
quan- tity of gasoline that can be used in 30 days. Use
of lead-free gasoline results in fewer combustion cham-
ber deposits and longer spark plug life. Use of premium
grade fuel is not necessary or recommended.
Use of Fuel Additives

GASOHOL CONTAINING MORE THAN
10% ALCOHOL BECAUSE ENGINE FUEL
SYSTEM DAMAGE COULD RESULT.

PROPYL. ADDITIVES SHOULD NOT BE
USED TO TRY TO ENHANCE THE POWER

Mixing Gasoline And Oil

IMPORTA NT: The eng ine used on this
Pruner is of a two-stroke design. The internal
moving parts of the engine, i.e., crankshaft
bearings, piston pin bearings and piston to cyl-
inder wall contact surfaces, require oil mixed
with the gasoline for lubrication.
Failure to add oil to the gasoline or failure to
mix oil with the gasoline at the appropriate
ratio will cause major engine damage which
will void your warranty.
For your fuel premix, use MARUYAMA
Premium two-stroke Oil Mix, or equivalent
ISO-L-EGD & JASO FD oil with a minimum
89 octane high quality gasoline. MARUYAMA
two-stroke oil is specially formulated to meet
the requirements of high-performance,
low-emission air-cooled two-stroke engines.
Use of other oils may lead to service issues
which may not be covered by your warranty.
