Toro Snowthrower Safety • Do not overload the machine capacity by attempting to clear snow at too fast a rate. The following list contains safety information specific to Toro products or other safety information that you must know. • Look behind and use care when backing up with the machine. • Rotating rotor blades can injure fingers or hands. • Disengage power to the rotor blades when machine is Stay behind the handles and away from the discharge opening while operating the machine.
PAGE 4
Sound Pressure Hand-Arm Vibration This machine has a sound pressure level at the operator’s ear of 88 dBA, which includes an Uncertainty Value (K) of 1 dBA. The sound pressure level was determined according to the procedures outlined in EN ISO 11201. Measured vibration level for the left hand = 8.4 m/s2 Measured vibration level for the right hand = 10.7 m/s2 Sound Power The measured values were determined according to the procedures outlined in EN ISO 20643. Uncertainty Value (K) = 4.

2 3 Installing the Discharge Chute Filling the Engine with Oil Parts needed for this procedure: No Parts Required 1 Discharge chute 1 Chute handle 3 Phillips-head bolts 3 Washers 3 Locknuts Procedure Your machine does not come with oil in the engine, but it does come with a bottle of oil. Important: Before starting the engine, fill the engine with oil. Note: The bottle of oil may contain an ounce or 2 more than the engine requires. Do not overfill or under fill the engine.
PAGE 7
Product Overview 3. Unscrew the oil fill cap and remove it. 4. With the machine in the operating position, carefully pour oil into the crankcase. Wait 3 minutes for the oil to settle and add enough to bring it to the point of overflow. There should be very little, if any, oil left in the bottle. Note: You may tip the machine forward (handle up) to make adding oil easier. Remember to return the machine to the operating position before checking the oil level.
PAGE 8
Filling the Fuel Tank • For best results, use only clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher ((R+M)/2 rating method). • Oxygenated fuel with up to 10% ethanol or 15% MTBE by volume is acceptable. • Do not use ethanol blends of gasoline (such as E15 or E85) with more than 10% ethanol by volume. Performance problems and/or engine damage may result which may not be covered under warranty. Figure 12 • Do not use gasoline containing methanol. 1.

Figure 14 1. Choke lever Figure 17 Note: If you pull the recoil handle and feel no resistance, the starter may be frozen. Thaw out the starter before attempting to start the machine. 5. While the engine is running, push in the choke lever slowly. Figure 15 1. Symbols on the choke lever indicating to move the choke lever to the right to activate the choke. Engaging the Rotor Blades 3.
PAGE 10
Disengaging the Rotor Blades Clearing a Clogged Discharge Chute To disengage the rotor blades, release the control bar (Figure 19). Important: Hand contact with the rotating rotor blades inside the discharge chute is the most common cause of injury associated with snowthrowers. Never use your hand to clean out the discharge chute. To clear the chute: • Shut the engine off ! • Wait 10 seconds to be sure the rotor blades have stopped rotating. • Always use a clean-out tool, not your hands (Figure 22).
PAGE 11
Operating Tips 2 1 WARNING The rotor blades can throw stones, toys, and other foreign objects and cause serious personal injury to the operator or to bystanders. • Keep the area to be cleared free of all objects that the rotor blades could pick up and throw. 4 3 • Keep all children and pets away from the area of operation. • Remove the snow as soon as possible after it falls.
PAGE 12
Adjusting the Control Cable Checking the Control Cable Service Interval: After the first hour—Check the control cable and adjust it if necessary. Yearly—Check the control cable and adjust it if necessary. Move the control bar back toward the handle to remove the slack in the control cable (Figure 24). Figure 25 1. Adjuster link 3. Spring cover 2. Z-fitting 4. Unhook the spring here. Note: You can pull up the adjuster link and cable to make unhooking the spring easier. 2.
PAGE 13
Changing the Engine Oil Service Interval: After the first 2 hours Yearly Run the engine a few minutes before changing the oil to warm it. Warm oil flows better and carries more contaminants. 1. Siphon the fuel from the fuel tank into an approved fuel container, or run the engine until it stops. 2. Move the machine to a level surface. 3. Place an oil drain pan under the oil drain plug, remove the oil drain plug, and tip the machine backward and drain the used oil in the oil drain pan Figure 28).
PAGE 14
Max fill: 0.6 L (20 oz.), type: automotive detergent oil with an API service classification of SJ, SL, or higher. Use Figure 30 below to select the best oil viscosity for the outdoor temperature range expected: Figure 30 Figure 31 9. Screw the oil fill cap into the oil fill hole, and hand tighten it securely. 10. Wipe up any spilled oil. 11. Dispose of the used oil properly at a local recycling center.
PAGE 15
Storage 16. Cover the machine and store it in a clean, dry place out of the reach of children. Allow the engine to cool before storing it in any enclosure. Storing the Snowthrower WARNING • Gasoline fumes are highly flammable, explosive, and dangerous if inhaled. If you store the machine in an area with an open flame, the gasoline fumes may ignite and cause an explosion.
