hi there
pfrolander

the ratio of oil to petrol you should use is 50:1 ( that is 20 mils of hi quality 2 stroke oil per 1.0 litre of petrol you mix ) using hi quality sthil / husqvarna 2 stroke oil


1000 divided by 50 = 20 mils of oil per 1.0 litre of petrol



NOTE if you do not have any hi quality 2 stroke but some from your local garage ( that you may use in say a scooter for example use 40 mils of oil per litre it is richer


this will do the job

cheers hope it helps

Hi and welcome to FixYa, I am Kelly

First off the engine is designed to operate on unleaded fuel. The manufacturer makes no statements at all about E-10 Fuel. I will tell you from experience that you can use E-10 Fuel but.... should you ever have a warranty claim make sure the entire fuel system is 100% unleaded pre-mixed fuel. Your not going to hurt the unit using E-10 fuel as long as you maintain the proper fuel-oil mixtures. If anything a splash more of 2 stroke oil as in 22 mm / liter vs 20 mm. Or (+) 8 mm per gal.

using good quality 2 stroke oil use ratio 50:1

that is 20 mils of oil per 1 litre of petrol that you mix

put oil in can 1st then add petrol and give good shake

so if mixing 5 litres pour in 100 mils of 2 stroke oil and add 5 litres of fuel only

cheers hope it helps

if using a good quality 2 stroke oil brand
mix it @ ratio 50:1 that is 100 mils of oil per 5 litres of petrol

or on a 1 litre basis it would be 20 mils of oil per litre
but !!!! if you are using generic 2 stroke oil from a garage
run it on 25:1 mix that is 40 mils of oil per litre of petrol

be sure to put required qty of in clean container 1st then add petrol qty to the can and give good shake , then fill your saw

cheers hope it helps
