DANGER signals an extreme hazard that will cause
serious injury or death if the recommended
precautions are not followed.
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.
The left and right side of the machine is determined
by standing behind the handle in the normal
operators position.

Before
Operating
1. 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.
2. Keep everyone, especially children and pets,
away from snowthrower and area of operation.
Never allow children to operate the
snowthrower. Adults should operate the
snowthrower only after reading this manual.
3. Thoroughly 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.
4. Keep all shields and safety devices in place. If a
shield, safety device or decal is illegible,
damaged or lost, repair or replace it before
beginning operation. Also, tighten any loose
nuts, bolts or screws.
5. Wear adequate winter clothing and rubber boots
that will ensure proper footing on slippery
surfaces. Do not wear loose fitting clothing that
could possibly get caught in moving parts.
6. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields during
operation or while performing an adjustment or
repair to protect eyes from foreign objects that
may be thrown from the machine.
7. Adjust both skids so auger/impeller housing
clears gravel or crushed rock surfaces.
8. Before starting the engine, ensure auger/impeller
drive control and traction (wheel drive) control
are in disengaged position.
9. Always use a grounded three wire plug and cord
to start snowthrower equipped with an electric
starter. Extension cord must be connected to a
properly grounded outlet.
10. Fill fuel tank with gasoline before starting the
engine. A

GB–4
C. 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

engine.
While
Operating
11. ROTATING
IMPELLER OR AUGER CAN
CUT OFF OR INJURE FINGERS OR
HANDS. STA
Y BEHIND THE HANDLES
AND AWAY FROM DISCHARGE
OPENING WHILE OPERA
TING THE
SNOWTHROWER. KEEP FACE, HANDS,
FEET, AND ANY OTHER PART OF YOUR
BODY OR CLOTHING A
WAY FROM
CONCEALED, MOVING OR ROT
ATING
PARTS.
12.
BEFORE ADJUSTING, CLEANING,
REP
AIRING, AND INSPECTING THE
SNOWTHROWER, AND BEFORE
UNCLOGGING THE DISCHARGE
CHUTE, SHUT ENGINE OFF AND WAIT
FOR ALL MOVING PAR
TS T
O STOP.
ALSO, PULL WIRE OFF SPARK PLUG
AND KEEP WIRE A
WAY FROM THE
PLUG T
O PREVENT ACCIDENT
AL
STARTING. USE A STICK, NOT YOUR
HAND, T
O REMOVE OBSTRUCTIONS
FROM DISCHARGE CHUTE.
13. Before leaving the operator
s position—behind
the handles—remove key from ignition switch.
14. Allow engine to warm up outdoors before
clearing snow
.
15. Operate the snowthrower only when there is
good visibility or light. Always maintain secure
footing and balance and keep a firm grip on the
handles, especially when operating in reverse.
Walk; never run.
16. Be attentive when using the snowthrower, and
stay alert for holes in the terrain and other
hidden hazards. Be careful when clearing snow
from a gravel drive because stones could be
picked up and thrown if skids are not adjusted so
auger/impeller housing clears all rocks.
17. Do not make any adjustments while the engine is
running, with the exception of carburetor
adjustments.
18. Never direct discharge of snow or operate
snowthrower near bystanders, glass enclosures,
automobiles and trucks, window wells or a
drop–off without proper adjustment of the snow
chute and deflector angle.
19. Clear snow from slopes by going up and down,
never across the face. Use caution when
changing directions. Use lower gear when
operating on slopes. Never clear snow from
steep slopes.
20. Do not overload the snowthrower by clearing
snow at too fast a rate.
21. Do not use snowthrower on a roof.
22. If a foreign object is hit or snowthrower vibrates
abnormally, stop engine by turning key to OFF
and wait for all moving parts to stop. Pull wire
off spark plug and check snowthrower
immediately for possible damage, an obstruction
or loose parts. Vibration is generally a sign of
trouble. Repair any damage before starting
engine and operating snowthrower again.
23. Do not touch engine while it is running or soon
after it is stopped because the engine will be hot
enough to cause a burn. Do not add oil or check
oil level in crankcase when engine is running.
GB–5
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. Keep snowthrower in safe operating condition
by keeping nuts, bolts, and screws tight. Check
engine mounting bolts frequently to assure they
are tight.
27. Do not overspeed the engine by changing
governor settings.
28. Never store snowthrower with fuel in fuel tank
inside a building where ignition sources such as
an open flame, sparks, hot water and space
heaters, and clothes dryers are present. Allow
engine to cool before storing in an enclosure
such as a garage or storage shed. NEVER
ST
ORE SNOWTHROWER IN HOUSE
(LIVING AREA) OR BASEMENT
BECAUSE GASOLINE AND FUMES ARE
HIGHL
Y FLAMMABLE, EXPLOSIVE,
AND DANGEROUS IF INHALED. Do not
store snowthrower near any open flame or where
gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark.
29. When storing the snowthrower for an extended
time—off season storage or 30 days—drain
gasoline from fuel tank to prevent a potential
hazard. Store gasoline in a safety–approved red
metal container. Remove key from ignition
switch when storing snowthrower. Store key in a
memorable place.
30. At the time of manufacture, the snowthrower
conformed with or exceeded OPEI safety
standards in effect for snowthrowers. Therefore,
to ensure best performance and safety, purchase
genuine TORO replacement parts and
accessories to keep the TORO all TORO.
NEVER USE “WILL FIT” REPLACEMENT
PAR
TS AND ACCESSORIES.
31.
For safety reasons, use only those accessories
and attachments recommended by The TORO
Company to ensure continued safety certification
of the product. Using unapproved accessories
and attachments could contribute to a potential
hazard.
