Use exactly what the manufacture of the equipment you are using recommends. I know that Echo recommends 89 octane in their 2 cycle engines. Some may recommend 87. Read the owners manual that came with the equipment.

What type of oil do you put into a Yard-Man mower would it be 2 cycle oil?
The type of oil you use depends on the type of engine you have. A good way to tell if it is a two-cycle or 4-cycle is to look for an oil filler cap - usually a screw-in cap about 1 to 1-1/2 inches in diameter. If the engine has an oil filler cap, it is a 4-cycle engine and you add 30-weight oil through the filler hole. If there is no oil cap, then the engine is a 2-cycle and you must mix 2-cycle oil with the gasoline. If it is a 2 cycle be sure and use only 2 cycle oil in the mix.
