octane rating of 87 and an ethanol content of less than 10%
by volume. y b c
2. DO NOT mix oil with gasoline.
3. Remove the gasoline cap.
4. Slowly add gasoline to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL. Gasoline
can expand after filling. A minimum of ¼ in.
(6.4 mm) of space left in the tank is required for gasoline
expansion, although more than ¼ in. (6.4 mm) is
recommended. Gasoline can be forced out of the tank as a
result of expansion if overfilled, and can affect the stable
running condition of the log splitter.


The engine works well with 10% or less ethanol blended
gasoline. When using ethanol-gasoline blends there are some
issues worth noting:
– Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water than
gasoline alone.
– These ethanol blends can eventually separate, leaving
water or a watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and
carburetor. The compromised gasoline can be drawn into
the carburetor and cause damage to the engine and/or
create potential hazards.
– If a fuel stabilizer is used, confirm that it is formulated to
work with ethanol-gasoline blends.
– Any damages or hazards caused by using ethanol blended
gasoline higher than 10% by volume, improperly stored
gasoline, and/or improperly formulated stabilizers, are not
covered by manufacturer's warranty.
It is advisable to always shut off the gasoline supply and
run the engine to starvation after each use. See Storage
instructions for extended non-use.
