Mend Homelite 20704 Run Gas Oil

does my homelite grass trimmer run on gas or a mixer of oil?

i lost the directions and i cant remember if my homelite model #20704 serial #HA 1400428 runs on gas or a mixture of oil and gas. I need help. Thanks in advance

Oil/Gas mixture. Regular Gas

32:1 ratio

Use 2 cycle oil

Check the filler cap. Does it have symbols for gas and oil? If so, you need a mix, and you'll need to also figure out the ratio. Or, you could also look for a dipstick for the oil compartment, which means it uses gas and oil separately. Most trimmers don't.
