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. 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. Adjust both skids so auger/impeller housing

clears gravel or crushed rock surfaces.

7. Before starting the engine, move speed shift

control to N (neutral) and ensure that

auger/impeller control and traction drive control

are in disengaged position.

8. 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.

9. Fill fuel tank with gasoline before starting the

engine. A

void spilling any gasoline. Because

gasoline is highly flammable, handle it carefully.

DO NOT SMOKE WHILE HANDLING

GASOLINE.

A. Use an approved gasoline container.

B. Fill fuel tank outdoors, not indoors.

NEVER ADD FUEL T

O AN ENGINE

THAT IS RUNNING OR HOT. Engine

must be cool to reduce potential fire hazard.

GB–3

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

fuel tank cap securely before starting the

engine.

While

Operating

10. 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.

11.

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.

12. Before leaving the operator’s position (behind

handles), remove the ignition key and wait for

all moving parts to stop.

13. Allow engine to warm up outdoors before

clearing snow

.

14. 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.

15. 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.

16. Do not make any adjustments while the engine is

running.

17. 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.

18. Clear snow from slopes by going up and down,

never across the face. Use caution when

changing directions. Use lower gear and rear

wheel position when operating on slopes. Never

clear snow from steep slopes.

19. Do not overload the snowthrower by clearing

snow at too fast a rate.

20. DO NOT USE SNOWTHROWER ON A

ROOF.

21. If a foreign object is hit or snowthrower vibrates

abnormally, stop engine by removing the key

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.

22. 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–4

23. Never operate snowthrower at high transport

speeds on slippery surfaces. Use care when

backing.

Maintaining

Snowthrower

24. 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.

25. Keep snowthrower in safe operating condition

by keeping nuts, bolts, and screws tight. Check

engine mounting bolts frequently to ensure they

are tight.

26. Do not overspeed the engine by changing

governor settings. Recommended maximum

engine speed is 3500 rpm. To ensure safety and

accuracy, check maximum engine speed (3500

rpm) with a tachometer.

27. 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.

28. 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.

29. 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.

30.

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.
