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.

IMPORTANT: Do not use National Marine

Manufacturer’s Association (NMMA) or BIA

certified oils. This type of two-stroke engine oil

does not have the proper additives for air-

cooled, 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 air-

cooled, two-stroke engines and can cause

engine damage.

Recommended Fuel Type

Use clean, fresh lead-free gasoline, including

oxygenated or reformulated gasoline, with an octane

rating of 89 or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase

only the quantity 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

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/

CONDITIONER OR A SIMILAR PRODUCT.

MARUYAMA’S STABILIZER/CONDITION-

ER IS A PETROLEUM DISTILLATE BASED

CONDITIONER/STABILIZER.

MARUYAMA DOES NOT RECOMMEND

STABILIZERS 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

Trimmer is of a two-stroke 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 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.

Fuel Mixture

The fuel: oil ratio is 50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil or

50:1.

10 ft. (3 m) minimum

50:1

— US-14 —

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.

Mixing Instructions

IMPORTANT: Never mix gasoline and oil directly

in the Trimmer fuel tank.

1. Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container

approved for gasoline.

2. Mark the container to identify it as fuel mix for

the Trimmer.

Use regular unleaded gasoline and fill the container

with half the required amount of gasoline.

4. Pour the correct amount of oil into the container

then add the remaining amount of gasoline.

Close the container tightly and shake it

momentarily to evenly mix the oil and the gasoline

before filling the fuel tank on the Trimmer.

6. When refilling the Trimmer fuel tank, clean

around the fuel tank cap to prevent dirt and debris

from entering the tank during cap removal.

7. Always shake the premix fuel container

momentarily before filling the fuel tank.

8. Always use a spout or funnel when fueling to

reduce fuel spillage.

9. Fill the tank only to within 1/4-1/2 in. (6 mm-13

mm) from the top of the tank. Avoid filling to the

top of the tank filler neck.

Maintenance

Maintenance, replacement or repair of emission

control devices and systems may be performed by

any repair establishment or individual; however,

warranty repairs must be performed by a dealer or

service center authorized by MARUYAMA

Manufacturing Company, Inc. The use of parts that

are not equivalent in performance and durability to

authorized parts may impair the effectiveness of the

emission control system and may have a bearing on

the outcome of a warranty claim.

Maintenance on today's low-emission engines is

even more critical for longest life and best

performance. Particularly critical are air and fuel

filters, spark plug heat range, cooling air intake

area and proper gaps of coil and plug.

Idle Speed Adjustment

This Trimmer is equipped with non-adjustable fuel

mixture carburetor. The engine idle speed is the only

adjustment for the operator.

The cutting head may be rotating during idle speed

adjustment. Wear the recommended personal protective

equipment and observe all safety instructions. Keep

hands and body away from the cutting head.

When the throttle trigger is released, the engine should

return to an idle speed between 2700-3300 RPM, or

just below the clutch engagement speed. The cutting

head must not rotate and the engine should not stall

(stop running) at engine idle speed.

To adjust the engine idle speed, rotate the idle speed

adjustment screw on the carburetor.

• Turn the idle speed screw in (clockwise) to increase

the engine idle speed.

• Turn the screw out (counter-clockwise) to decrease

the engine idle speed.

If idle speed adjustment is necessary, and after

adjustment the cutting head rotates or the engine

stalls, stop using the Trimmer immediately!

Contact your local authorized MARUYAMA Dealer

for assistance and servicing.
