It is a 50:1 gas:oil mix. I'd also strongly recommend adding a fuel stabilizer to the mix, as a tiller has a tendency to sit for long periods without being used. Good luck!

Too much oil in the fuel mix. Look for a 2 cycle oil called Opti-2. Comes in 1 or 2 1/2 gallon mix pouches w/fuel stabilizer. One mix for all 2 cycle. It's the best and no measuring, foolproof.

Try www.mantis.com. You should be able to find the manual for download or request one from Mantis.

If you can get to the dry bushings, DuraLube pump lube will fix your problem. It is available at most automotive stores and departments for $8 -10. I've used it in areas where I had to lube every 10-20 working hours. Now i can go 200-300 working hours. You can also add 2 or 3 ounces to your crankcase oil.

you probably have gum or varnish built up inside the carb. take it apart and clean all the ports and jets with fresh gas. drain the float bowl and fill it with fresh gas as well. if you are not familiar with carbs, best not take it apart yourself, or pay VERY close attention to how it came apart.
