WARNING signals a hazard that may cause serious injury or death if the recommended precautions are not followed. CAUTION signals a hazard that may cause minor or moderate injury if the recommended precautions are not followed. Two other words are also used to highlight information. “Important” calls attention to special mechanical information and “Note” emphasizes general information worthy of special attention.
A. Use an approved gasoline container. B. C. Fill fuel tank outdoors, not indoors. NEVER ADD FUEL TO AN ENGINE THAT IS RUNNING OR HOT. Engine must be cool to reduce potential fire hazard. Open doors if engine will be started in the garage because exhaust fumes are dangerous and could possibly be deadly. Do not run engine indoors. D. Wipe up any spilled gasoline. Reinstall gasoline container cap and snowthrower fuel tank cap securely before starting the engine. While Operating 11.
24. Never operate snowthrower at high transport speeds on slippery surfaces. Use care when backing. Maintaining Snowthrower 25. Perform only those maintenance instructions described in this manual. Shut engine off before performing any maintenance service or adjustment. Additionally, pull wire off spark plug and keep wire away from plug to prevent accidental starting. If major repairs are ever needed, contact your local Authorized TORO Service Dealer for assistance. 26.
BEFORE OPERATING Read and understand the contents of this manual before operating the snowthrower. Become familiar with all controls and know how to stop the engine quickly. CAUTION: IMPROPER USE MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF FINGERS, HANDS OR FEET. HIGH SPEED IMPELLER WITHIN 2 INCHES OF OPENING OPERATOR'S POSITION LOW SPEED AUGER HAS MOVING PINCH POINT, CLOSE TO OPENING.
Safety Decals and Instructions Safety decals and instructions are easily visible to the operator and are located near any area of potential danger. Replace any decal that is damaged or lost.

Loose Parts DESCRIPTION QTY.
2. Remove the axle pins from both wheels and slide the wheels outward on the axle approximately one inch to make clearance for assembly of handles. 2. 3. Position left handle against side of unit. Make sure traction rod goes through loop in lower traction rod (Fig. 6). Align handle mount holes with holes in side plate, and secure with two capscrews and curved washers until finger tight (Fig. 2). Install Traction Rod Note: 1.
3. 4. Check the distance between the top of the handgrip and the bottom of the auger control lever (Fig. 7 & 10). Distance should be approximately four inches. This is a preliminary setting only. Compress auger control lever slowly toward handgrip. The amount of force to compress the lever will increase noticeably when slack is removed from the drive belt (approximately one–half of lever movement).
1. Move unit to a level surface to ensure an accurate oil level reading. 2. Clean area around dipstick to prevent foreign matter from entering filler hole when dipstick is removed. 3. Remove dipstick from crankcase (Fig. 14). 4. Slowly pour 21 ounces (0.621 liters) of SAE 5W–30 or SAE 10 oil into the filler hole. The engine uses any high–quality detergent oil having the American Petroleum Institute (API) “service classification”—SE, SF or SG.
SHOULD NOT BE USED TO TRY TO ENHANCE THE POWER OR PERFORMANCE OF MACHINE. 1. Clean area around the fuel tank cap (Fig. 14). Remove cap from fuel tank. Using unleaded, regular gasoline, fill tank to within 1/4” to 1/2” (6 to 13 mm) from the top of the tank, not into the filler neck. This space is for expansion of fuel. Do not fill tank full. Reinstall fuel tank cap. Fuel Shut–Off Valve (Fig. 15)—Valve is located under fuel tank. Close valve by rotating it to the right to stop fuel flow from fuel tank.
3. Rotate choke (Fig. 16) to full choke position. To Stop Engine 4. Rotate ignition key (Fig. 15) to ON. 1. Release traction and auger drive controls (Fig. 15). 5. Cover hole in center of primer with thumb and push primer slowly three times. DO NOT PRIME IF THE ENGINE HAS BEEN RUNNING AND IS HOT. 2. Move throttle (Fig. 16) to slow and rotate ignition key (Fig. 15) to OFF. 3. Wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving the operator’s position (behind the handles). Note: 6.
Adjusting Skids And Scraper Blade POTENTIAL HAZARD • When snowthrower is in operation, impeller and auger can be rotating. WHAT CAN HAPPEN • ROTATING IMPELLER OR AUGER CAN CUT OFF OR INJURE FINGERS OR HANDS. HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD • Before adjusting, cleaning, repairing and inspecting the snowthrower, and before unclogging the discharge chute, SHUT ENGINE OFF AND WAIT FOR ALL MOVING PARTS TO STOP. Also, pull wire off spark plug and keep wire away from the plug to prevent accidental starting.
Maintenance POTENTIAL HAZARD • If you leave the wire on the spark plug, someone could start the engine. WHAT CAN HAPPEN • Accidental starting of engine could seriously injure you or other bystanders. HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD • Pull wire off spark plug and remove key from switch before you do any maintenance. Also push wire aside so it does not accidentally contact spark plug. 2. Place a clean drain pan under shut–off valve. 3. Loosen hose clamp securing fuel line to valve and slide line off valve (Fig.
2. Block up the rear of the snowthrower chassis and remove the left wheel. Adjusting Auger/Impeller Drive Belt 3. Clean area around oil drain plug. Next, slide oil drain pan below drain extension; then remove oil drain plug (Fig. 23). If auger/impeller belt slips, resulting in decreased snowthrowing performance, either an adjustment or a new belt is required. 4. After all oil is drained, reinstall oil drain plug and left wheel. 5. Position snowthrower on a level surface.
1. Pull wire off spark plug and make sure it does not contact the plug accidentally. 2. Drain gasoline from fuel tank. Refer to Draining Gasoline, page 14. 13. Reinstall auger/impeller drive belt around large auger/impeller pulley and engine pulley, making sure that belt is on inside of idler pulley and belt guide (Fig. 26). Note: If auger/impeller drive belt is replaced with a new belt, adjust auger drive linkage. Refer to steps 4–6 of Install Auger Drive Control Linkage, page 8. 3.
5. With drive assembly 1/8” from contacting roll pin, tighten flange nuts securing speed selector plate. Preparing Snowthrower For Storage 1. 6. 7. Shift speed selector to R (REVERSE) and back to third to check adjustment. If space between roll pin and drive assembly is more than #/16 of an inch (4.8 mm), repeat steps 2–4. Check spark plug yearly or every 100 operating hours. If electrodes in center of plug are dark or have deteriorated, install a new plug.
