Ensure that you move the trimmer to a properly ventilated area whenever you handle fuel as the fumes could be toxic if they are allowed to concentrate in small closed spaces for long periods without attention. Begin by first draining out any present fuel or oil from the trimmer and ensuring that the tank is empty. Refer to the engine manual and measure the adequate amount of fuel and oil in separate containers before you can begin to mix them together. In most cases, this would generally be in the region of 50:1 which is roughly 2.6 pounds of oil to each gallon of fuel that the trimmer would need to be filled with. Once you have measured out the precise quantities of each fluid, mix them thoroughly in a container by shaking properly until the mixture has been allowed to form a uniform, homogenous solution. Let it rest for somewhere around 10-15 seconds before shaking once again. Now remove the fuel cap from your trimmer and pour the solution in, taking care not to allow any fumes to reach your nose. Recap the weed eater once you’re done and avoid spills.
