Note:

The control cable must always have
slack in it when in the disengaged
position.

Before Starting

POTENTIAL HAZARD

In certain conditions gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn
you and 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.

Note:

Figures referenced in this section are
contained in the front of this
document.

Mix Gasoline and Oil (Fig. 6)

Use clean, fresh lead-free gasoline, including
oxygenated or reformulated gasoline, with an octane
rating of 85 or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase

only the quantity of gasoline that can be used in 30
days. Use of lead-free gasoline results in fewer
combustion chamber deposits and longer spark plug
life. Use of premium grade fuel is not necessary.

1.

APPROVED OIL—For simplicity and best
engine performance, mix the contents of one 5.2
ounce bottle of Toro 50:1 Two–Cycle Oil with
two gallons of fresh, unleaded regular gasoline.
You can also use Toro “Easy–Mix” Two–Cycle
Oil (3.2 ounce bottle mixed one per gallon of
gasoline; 40:1 ratio) in this Toro two–cycle
engine. Leaded regular gasoline may be used if
unleaded regular is not available.

Toro Two–Cycle Oil is specially formulated to
provide superior lubrication, make starting easy,
and prolong engine life. If Toro Two–Cycle Oil
is not available, mix two gallons of gasoline and
5.2 ounces of another high grade two–cycle oil
that has the NMMA or BIA–TCW certification
printed on the label.

NEVER USE AUTOMOTIVE OIL (i.e. SAE
30, 10W30 etc.), TWO–CYCLE OIL THAT IS
NOT CERTIFIED NMMA/BIA–TCW, OR THE
WRONG MIX RATIO BECAUSE THE
ENGINE CAN BE DAMAGED, AND IT
WOULD NOT BE COVERED BY THE TORO
WARRANTY.

2.

Mixing Gasoline and Oil—Pour a half gallon of
gasoline into an approved gasoline container and
add the correct amount of two–cycle oil. Install
cap on gasoline container and shake the
container to mix oil and gas thoroughly. Remove
cap and add remaining amount of gasoline.

Toro also recommends that Toro
Stabilizer/Conditioner be used regularly in all
Toro gasoline powered products during operation
and storage seasons. Toro Stabilizer/Conditioner
cleans the engine during operation and prevents
gum–like varnish deposits from forming in the
engine during periods of storage.

Note:

A fuel stabilizer/conditioner is most
effective when mixed with fresh
gasoline.
