The Homelite Bandit chainsaw requires a fuel mixture of 50:1, meaning 50 parts gasoline to 1 part 2-cycle oil.
For example:
* To make 1 gallon of fuel mixture, mix 1/2 gallon (64 oz.) of gasoline with 2.6 oz. of 2-cycle oil.
* To make 2 gallons of fuel mixture, mix 1 gallon (128 oz.) of gasoline with 5.2 oz. of 2-cycle oil.
Tips for Mixing Fuel:
* Always mix fuel in a well-ventilated area.
* Use fresh, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher.
* Do not mix more fuel than you will use in a few weeks.
* Store fuel mixture in a cool, dry place.
* Shake fuel mixture well before using.
