Fueling And Before Operating
1. Gasoline is extremely flammable and its vapors
can explode if ignited. Always stop the engine
and allow it to cool before filling the fuel tank.
Do not smoke while filling the fuel tank. Keep
sparks and open flames away from the area.
2. Store gasoline and fuel only in containers
designed and approved for the storage of such
materials.
3. Pressure can build up in the fuel tank. Loosen
the fuel tank cap slowly to relieve any pressure
in the tank.
4. Add fuel in a clean, well-ventilated area. Wipe
up any spilled fuel immediately. If fuel has been
spilled, allow it to dry completely before starting
the engine.
5. Move the trimmer at least 10 ft (3 m) from the
fueling point before starting the engine.
6. Thoroughly inspect the trimmer for loose or
damaged parts before each use. Do not use until

4. Insert the locking rod tool into the locking rod
slot (see Fig. 5). Install the washer. Screw the
spool counterclockwise onto the shaft.
5. Install the string guard using all of the screws
(see Fig. 5). Tighten the screws.
EN–7
Before Starting
Oil & Fuel
THIS ENGINE IS CERTIFIED TO OPERATE
ON UNLEADED GAS AND OIL MIXTURE.
Note: BE SURE TO READ THESE
INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO START
OR OPERATE THIS UNIT. Using old
or improper oil or fuel, or improperly
mixing the oil and fuel can cause
engine damage. This type of damage
will void the engine warranty.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
In certain conditions gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn
you, others, and cause property damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors,
in an open area, when the engine is cold.
Wipe up any gasoline that spills.
Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the level
is 1/4” to 1/2” (6 mm to 13 mm) below the
bottom of the filler neck. This empty space
in the tank allows gasoline to expand.
Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark.
Store gasoline in an approved container
and keep it out of the reach of children.
Never buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline.
Recommended Oil Type
An 8 oz. (0.24 liter) bottle of 2-cycle engine oil is
included with your product.
TORO 2-cycle oil is recommended for this outdoor
power tool. If another brand of 2-cycle oil is used,
make sure it is high quality oil, formulated for
2-cycle, air-cooled engines.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Gasoline/oil mixture contains petroleum
distillate.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Gasoline/oil mixture can be harmful or
fatal if swallowed. It can also irritate your
skin.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Do not drink gasoline/oil mixture.
Avoid prolonged contact with skin. Wash
thoroughly after handling.
Do not reuse oil bottle.
IMPORTANT: If gasoline/oil mixture is
swallowed, do not induce vomiting. CALL
PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
Recommended Fuel Type
Use clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline that is less than
60 days old.
Note: Alcohol blended fuel absorbs moisture
(water). As little as 1% moisture in the
fuel can cause fuel and oil to separate
and form acids when stored.
If this type of fuel must be used, use
fresh fuel, (less than 60 days old) and
mix according to the mixing
instructions.
Definition Of Blended Fuels
Today’s fuels are often a blend of gasoline and one or
more oxygenates such as ethanol, methanol or MTBE
(ether).
Use Of Blended Fuels
If you choose to use a blended fuel or its use is
unavoidable, the following precautions are
recommended.
EN–8
1. Always use fresh fuel mix per your operators
manual.
2. Use a special additive such as Toro Gas
Stabilizer/Conditioner, STA-BILr or an
equivalent.
3. Always agitate the fuel mix before fueling the
unit.
4. Drain the tank and run the engine dry before
storing the unit.
Use Of Fuel Additives
The use of fuel additive, such as Toro Gas
Stabilizer/Conditioner, STA-BILr Gas Stabilizer or
an equivalent, will inhibit corrosion and minimize the
formation of gum deposit. Add 0.8 oz (23 ml) per
gallon of fuel per instructions on container. NEVER
add fuel additives directly to the unit’s fuel tank.
Using a fuel additive can keep fuel fresh for up to
six (6) months.
Mixing Oil And Fuel
Note: For proper engine operation and
maximum reliability, pay strict
attention to the oil and fuel mixing
instructions on the 2-cycle oil
container. Use a 32:1 fuel/oil ratio
when you use 2-cycle oil. Using
improperly mixed fuel can severely
damage the engine.
Thoroughly mix the proper ratio of 2-cycle engine oil
with unleaded gasoline in a separate fuel can, 32:1.
Do not mix them directly in the engine fuel tank. See
the table below for specific gas and oil mixing
ratios.

POTENTIAL HAZARD
Sharpening the blade can cause the blade
tip to break off while in use.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Contact with a thrown blade or piece of
blade could result in serious personal
injury to operator or bystanders.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
DO NOT SHARPEN THE BRUSH
BLADE. Replace blade if dull.
The brush blade is designed with a second set of
teeth, which can be used by removing the blade,
turning it upside down, and reinstalling it.
If a crack is noticed, install a new blade from your
Authorized Toro Service Dealer.
Adjusting The Trimming Line
Length
Your trimmer is equipped with a bump head that
allows the operator to release more trimming line
without stopping the engine. To release additional
line, lightly tap the trimming head on the ground
(Fig. 15) while operating the trimmer at high speed.
Note: Always keep the trimming line fully
extended. Line release becomes more
difficult as cutting line becomes
shorter.
Each time the head is bumped, about 1 in (25.4 mm)
of trimming line is released. A blade in the string
guard will cut the line to the proper length if excess
line is released.
For best results, tap the head on bare ground or hard
soil. If line release is attempted in tall grass, the
engine may stall.
Decorative Trimming
Decorative trimming is accomplished by removing all
vegetation around trees, posts, fences, etc (Fig. 16).
