The easiest way is to mix it in your gas can as you buy gas at the service station.
If it's a 2cycle, most of the oil mix I buy says on it that stabilizer is included in the oil mix. Fuel stabilizer does not take the place of your 2cycle oil mix. I haven't ever had problems with my 2cycle gas going bad even when left for awhile.
If it's a 4cycle you can mix the stabilizer in when you buy gas.
For now, guess at the fuel tank size ( a quart ? ) and work out the ratio to add to the trimmer tank. A teaspoon maybe. A little too much won't kill anything.
50:1 is 50:1 no matter whose 2 cycle mix you use. 50:1 is 2.6 ounces of 2cycle mix to 1 gallon (US) of gasoline. I recommend strongly to use a brand that contains fuel stabilizer. It will come in a 3.2 ounce bottle...still 50:1. The premium 2 cycle oils will be semi-synthetic or full synthetic and will claim "no smoke"
50:1 mixture. Trimlite, Trim 'n Edge, and EasyReach models. Pre-mix unleaded gasoline and 2-cycle engine oil in a clean 1 gallon container approved for gasoline. Unleaded gasoline. Mix Homelite Premium Exact Mix oil with gasoline according to the instructions on the package. If Premium Exact Mix oil is not available, use a high quality 2-cycle engine oil, mixed at 2.6 oz. per gallon (US). Do not use automotive oil or 2-cycle outboard oil. Homelite manuals are quite hard to find. I'm sorry that I can't help you with that.
