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. 4. Inspect area thoroughly where snowthrower will be used. Remove doormats, sleds, boards, sticks, wire, and any other foreign objects which might be picked up and thrown by the snowthrower. The left and right side of the machine is determined by standing behind the handle in the normal operator’s position. 5.
water or when hands are wet. Do not use cord if gasoline has been spilled. If extension cord is damaged, replace immediately. 12. Never direct discharge toward or operate snowthrower near bystanders, glass enclosures, automobiles and trucks, window wells, or a drop–off. Never allow anyone in front of snowthrower. 13. Operate the snowthrower only when there is good visibility or light. 14. Always maintain secure footing and balance and keep a firm grip on the handle. Walk; never run.
snowthrower in house (living area) or basement because gasoline and fumes are highly flammable, explosive, and dangerous if inhaled. 30. Always refer to Operator’s Manual for important details if snowthrower is to be stored for an extended period. 31. Perform only those maintenance instructions described in this manual. 32. Remove key from switch and spark plug wire from the spark plug before performing maintenance procedures to prevent the possibility of accidental starting.
Consult technical manual for proper service procedures Stay a safe distance from the machine – two stage snowthrower Shut off engine and remove key before performing maintenance or repair work Thrown or flying objects — Whole body exposure Shut off engine and remove key before leaving operator position – single stage snowthrower Electrical shock – electrocution Shut off engine and remove key before leaving operator position – two stage snowthrower Cutting or entanglement of foot – rotating auger Sev

Note: Figures referenced in this section are contained in the front of this document. 2. Secure upper handle to lower handles using oval head bolts, curved washers, and knobs. Position knobs and curved washers on inside of handle and TIGHTEN KNOBS SECURELY to prevent them from loosening.
1/16”-1/8”. See insert, Figure 5. If an adjustment is required, refer to Adjusting Control Bar, page 12. Note: The control cable must always have slack in it when in the disengaged position. only the quantity of gasoline that can be used in 30 days. Use of lead-free gasoline results in fewer combustion chamber deposits and longer spark plug life. Use of premium grade fuel is not necessary. 1. Before Starting APPROVED OIL—For simplicity and best engine performance, mix the contents of one 5.
IMPORTANT: NEVER USE METHANOL, GASOLINE CONTAINING METHANOL, GASOHOL CONTAINING MORE THAN 10% ETHANOL, PREMIUM GASOLINE, OR WHITE GAS BECAUSE ENGINE FUEL SYSTEM DAMAGE COULD RESULT. DO NOT USE FUEL ADDITIVES OTHER THAN THOSE MANUFACTURED FOR FUEL STABILIZATION DURING STORAGE SUCH AS TORO’S STABILIZER/CONDITIONER OR A SIMILAR PRODUCT. TORO’S STABILIZER/CONDITIONER IS A PETROLEUM DISTILLATE BASED CONDITIONER/STABILIZER.
However, depth of snow affects forward speed. Always overlap each swath and discharge downwind when possible. repeating engine starting procedure, check that ignition key switch is ON, and make sure there is fresh fuel in fuel tank. If engine still will not start after a second attempt, bring the snowthrower to an Authorized Toro Service Dealer for servicing. IMPORTANT: Do not leave the electric starter cord connected to the power outlet when storing the snowthrower.
POTENTIAL HAZARD • Gasoline and its fumes are highly flammable, explosive, and dangerous if inhaled. 3. Loosen knobs on handle and fold handle down over unit, ensuring that you do not kink the control cable. 4. Carry unit by discharge chute handle. 5. Be sure to tighten all knobs SECURELY after unfolding handle and chute. WHAT CAN HAPPEN • If gasoline contacts a flame or is inhaled, serious personal injury can occur.
6. Install spring cover over cable adjuster and spring. 7. Hook spring into top hole of control bar bracket (Fig. 5). 8. After extended use, the drive belt may wear and proper belt tension may not be maintained. Improper belt tension causes belt slippage and decreases the snowthrower’s performance under a heavy load. Belt slippage may occur after 2–3 seasons of normal usage (10–15 hours).
B. Pull belt out at the bottom of the rotor pulley and remove it from the pulley. Replacing Scraper (Fig. 12-13) C. Before each season, inspect scraper for wear. When wear indicator groove is worn away (Fig. 12), replace scraper to prevent damage to underside of snowthrower. Push down on the idler pulley to release the brake arm and pull the belt from behind the brake arm. D. Slide the belt off of the drive pulley. 6. Repeat steps 1–5 to replace other blade. 1. Stop engine. Remove key from switch.
2. REMOVE SPARK PLUG (Fig. 18)–Pull wire off spark plug and remove plug. Examine the plug and replace if cracked, fouled, or dirty. DO NOT SANDBLAST, SCRAPE, OR CLEAN SPARK PLUG BECAUSE DIRT MAY RELEASE AND FALL INTO CYLINDER CAUSING ENGINE DAMAGE. 2. CYLINDER/PISTON CARE—Slowly pull recoil starter until resistance is felt due to compression pressure, then stop. Release starter tension slowly to prevent engine from reversing due to compression pressure.
