Mixing Gasoline And Oil - Maruyama E23 Manuel Du Propriétaire/De L'utilisateur

Recommended Oil Type
Only use a two-cycle engine oil formulated for use in
high-performance, air-cooled two-cycle engines.
Maruyama brand 2-cycle oil is formulated for use in
high-performance, air-cooled two-cycle engines.
IMPORTANT: Do not use National Marine
Manufacturer's Association (NMMA) or BIA
certified oils. This type of 2-cycle engine oil
does not have the proper additives for air-
cooled, 2-cycle engines and can cause engine
damage.
Do not use automotive motor oil. This type of
oil does not have the proper additives for air-
cooled, 2-cycle 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 chamber
deposits and longer spark plug life. Use of premium
grade fuel is not necessary or recommended.
Use of Fuel Additives
IMPORTANT: NEVER USE ALCOHOL,
GASOHOL CONTAINING MORE THAN
10% ALCOHOL BECAUSE ENGINE FUEL
SYSTEM DAMAGE COULD RESULT.
DO NOT USE FUEL ADDITIVES OTHER
THAN THOSE MANUFACTURED FOR
FUEL STABILIZATION DURING STORAGE
SUCH AS Maruyama'S STABILIZER/ CON-
DITIONER OR A SIMILAR PRODUCT.
Maruyama'S STABILIZER/CONDITIONER
IS A PETROLEUM DISTILLATE BASED
CONDITIONER/STABILIZER.
Maruyama DOES NOT RECOMMEND STA-
BILIZERS WITH AN ALCOHOL BASE
SUCH AS ETHANOL, METHANOL OR ISO-
PROPYL. ADDITIVES SHOULD NOT BE
USED TO TRY TO ENHANCE THE POWER
OR PERFORMANCE OF MACHINE.

Mixing Gasoline and Oil

IMPORTANT: The engine used on this Edger is
of a 2-cycle design. The internal moving parts
of the engine, i.e., crankshaft bearings, piston
pin bearings and piston to cylinder 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
2-cycle Oil Mix, or equivalent ISO-L-EGD &
JASO FD oil with a minimum 89 octane high
quality gasoline. Maruyama 2-cycle oil is spe-
cially formulated to meet the requirements of
high-performance, low-emission air-cooled 2-
cycle engines. Use of other oils may lead to ser-
vice issues which may not be covered by your
warranty.
Fuel Mixture
The fuel: oil ratio is 50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil or
50:1.
Note: Never use a mixing ratio less than 50:1
regardless of the oil package mixing instructions.
Ratios less than 50:1, (for example, 60:1, 80:1,
100:1), reduce the amount of lubrication to the
internal moving parts of the engine and can cause
damage.
