Operation

Note:

Determine the left and right sides of the machine

from the normal operating position.

Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. A
fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others.

To prevent a static charge from igniting the
gasoline, place the container and/or snowthrower
on the ground before filling, not in a vehicle or
on an object.

Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is cold.
Wipe up spills.

Do not handle gasoline when smoking or around
an open flame or sparks.

Store gasoline in an approved fuel container, out
of the reach of children.

Mixing the Gasoline and Oil

This snowthrower uses a 50:1 gasoline-to-oil mixture. Use

Toro 50:1 2-Cycle Oil (Fuel Stabilizer Added)

or an

equivalent high-grade, NMMA TCW-certified two-cycle oil.

Important:

To prevent engine damage, do not use

automotive oil (such as SAE 30 or 10W30) or fuel mixed
at the wrong gasoline-to-oil ratio.

1. Pour a half US gallon (1.9 liters) of fresh, unleaded

gasoline into an approved fuel container.

2. Add two-cycle oil to the gasoline according to the chart

below (Figure 9):
