                                                         -   Classification: ISO L-EGD (worldwide),
  STIHL HP Super engine oil is a high-performance            JASO FD (Asian market):
  partially synthetic engine oil for all applications        in each case, the class with the highest
  which use air-cooled mix lubricated engines.               requirements with respect to exhaust smoke

                                                         Applications

  Mixture ratio                                          STIHL HP Super is intended primarily for use in
                                                         high-performance, air-cooled engines with mixture
  1 : 50 (1 part STIHL engine oil to 50 parts of fuel)   lubrication. These engines demand a high-quality
                                                         lubricant and are often operated for long periods at
                                                         full power.
  Properties

Important notes on the preparation and storage             Package sizes
of fuel-oil mixtures                                       The oil is available in the following container sizes:
.   Use mid-grade unleaded gasoline with a
    minimum octane rating of 89 (R+M/2). If the             Size                       Case part no.
    octane rating of the mid-grade gasoline in your         2.6 oz.-48 per case        7010 871 0107
    area is lower, use premium unleaded fuel.               5.2 oz.-48 per case        7010 871 0111
.   Do not keep large stocks of mixture. This could         6.4 oz.-48 per case        7010 871 0114
    result in demixing of the components,                   12.8 oz.-24 per case       7010 871 0117
    particularly in the case of fuels containing a high     1 gallon-6 per case        7010 871 0119
    proportion of ethanol. This is particularly true at

    the mixture – in such cases, the fuel will also
    demix (the ethanol separates from the fuel).
    Demixing which occurs in this manner is

    irreversible, even if the temperature rises again.
    The use of demixed fuel will cause the engine to
    run poorly and may also result in damage to the
    engine.
.   Storage life of fuel and oil mixtures: a few
    months (rule of thumb: about 3 months)
.   Before use, thoroughly shake a mixture which
    has stood for a long period
