• Do not operate the equipment without wearing adequate winter garments. Wear footwear which will improve footing on slippery surfaces. This manual uses two other words to highlight information. Important calls attention to special mechanical information and Note emphasizes general information worthy of special attention. • Handle fuel with care; it is highly flammable. • Use an approved fuel container. Safety • Never add fuel to a running or hot engine. • Fill fuel tank outdoors with extreme care.
• Run the machine a few minutes after throwing snow to prevent freeze-up of the collector (auger)/impeller. (With the engine running, pull the recoil starter handle several times.) spark-plug wire, and keep the wire away from the plug to prevent someone from accidentally starting the engine. Disconnect the cable on electric motors. • Do not run the engine indoors, except when starting it and for moving the snowthrower in or out of the building. Open the outside doors; exhaust fumes are dangerous.
• When storing the snowthrower for more than 30 days, drain the gasoline from the fuel tank to prevent a potential hazard. Store gasoline in a safety approved, red metal container. Remove the key from the ignition switch before storing the snowthrower. • To ensure the best performance and safety, purchase only genuine Toro replacement parts and accessories to keep the Toro all Toro. Do not use “Will Fit” replacement parts and accessories as they could cause a safety hazard.
Assembly Note: Determine the left and right sides of the snowthrower by standing in the normal operating position. Loose Parts DESCRIPTION QTY.

Before Starting 4 3 5 Mixing Gasoline and Oil 6 Use only clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline (including oxygenated or reformulated gasoline) with an octane rating of 87 or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase only the amount of gasoline you expect to use in 30 days. Using unleaded gasoline results in fewer combustion chamber deposits and longer spark plug life. 2 1 m-2708 Figure 7 1. 2. 3. 4.
DANGER DANGER POTENTIAL HAZARD • In certain conditions gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. POTENTIAL HAZARD • When fueling, under certain circumstances, a static charge can develop, igniting the gasoline. WHAT CAN HAPPEN • A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you, others, and cause property damage. WHAT CAN HAPPEN • A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others and cause property damage.

In extremely cold temperatures, repeat this step as necessary. 3 Note: Do not use the choke and the primer when starting a warm engine. 111 Figure 9 1. Add oil to small amount of gasoline 2. Install cap and shake can to mix 3. For a recoil starter: Hold the snowthrower with one hand and pull the recoil starter vigorously with the other hand. 3.

Throwing Snow 2 3 1 WARNING POTENTIAL HAZARD • Stones, toys and other foreign objects may be picked up and thrown by the rotor blades. WHAT CAN HAPPEN • Thrown objects can cause serious personal injury to operator or bystanders. m-3278 HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD • Keep the area to be cleared free of all objects that could be picked up and thrown by rotor blades. • Keep all children and pets away from area of operation.

Maintenance Recommended Maintenance Schedule Service Item Service Operation Initial Annually Comments X X Check and adjust as needed. Control cable Check the control cable. Adjust if necessary. Fuel tank Drain the fuel and run the engine until the fuel tank and the carburetor are dry. X Scraper Check the scraper. Replace if necessary. X Drive belt Inspect the drive belt. Replace if necessary. X Spark plug Clean, inspect, and gap. Replace if necessary.
A. Unhook the upper cable end from the hole in the control bar bracket (Fig. 7). 2. Remove the fuel tank cap and use a pump-type syphon to drain the fuel into a clean gasoline container. B. Slide the spring cover up the cable to expose the cable adjuster (Fig. 7). 3. Start the engine and allow it to run until it consumes all the fuel in the fuel tank and stops running. Repeat this step two more times to ensure that the fuel tank is empty. C.
6. Install the new scraper to the housing using the carriage bolts and locknuts. 4. Loop the new drive belt around the engine pulley, under the idler pulley, over the roller, through the brake assembly, and around the rotor pulley (Fig. 18). Replacing the Drive Belt IMPORTANT: The drive belt must be on top of the roller as shown in Figure 18. Inspect the drive belt before each season, and replace it if it is worn or damaged. 5. Install the drive belt cover.
5. Set the spark plug gap (Fig. 21) between the electrodes to .032 in. (.81 mm). Note: Replace the scraper whenever you replace the rotor blades. This ensures proper snowthrower operation and performance. Note: The running time and the roughness of the driveway or the sidewalk determines the wear rate of the rotor blades. .032 in. (.81 mm) Removing the Old Blade Note: You will need a No. T27 torx driver to complete this procedure. Figure 21 1.

Insert the new rotor blade between the rotor halves. 1. Examine a new rotor blade edge for the difference in layer thickness (Fig. 24). Some rotor blades have a part number on the thick side of the blade. 3.
2. Run the engine for five minutes to distribute the conditioned fuel through the fuel system. 3. Stop the engine, allow it to cool, and drain the fuel tank. 4. Start the engine again and run it until it stops. 5. Prime the engine, start it a third time, and run it until it will not restart. 6. Recycle the fuel according to local codes. Preparing the Engine This procedure allows you to close both the intake and the exhaust ports of the engine, preventing cylinder bore corrosion. 1.
