Mend Ryobi Oil Ratio Trimmer

Oil ratio and Line for Scorpion Ryobi Line trimmer?

Just inherited a Ryobi Scorpion Line trimmer. What ratio of oil should I be using? and what size line?
Help please

DO NOT USE THE HEAVIEST LINE!
Use either 2.0mm or possibly 2.4mm line, do not use thicker as it will cause problems as the machine is not powerful enough.
Oil mixture ratio depends on the oil you purchase but as a guide mix
Mineral Oil at 25:1
Synthetic oil 50:1
If you are in the UK go to Homebase and buy a Fuel Mixing bottle to make it easy.
Or Call ALM Manufacturing 01423 797208 for advice/stockists

Hi Kerry, If you look on the filler cap It will have either 40-1 or 50-1 ratio mixture which works out:-
40-1 4 litre of petrol to a 100 mils of oil
50-1 5 litre of petrol to a 100 mils of oil
you can buy 100 mil sachets which makes life easier
as for the line use the heaviest one

2.5mm line is probably the best for these.
