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 11):
