Before Starting
Fill Fuel Tank With Gasoline
ENGINES WHICH ARE CERTIFIED TO
COMPLY WITH CALIFORNIA AND U.S. EPA
EMISSION REGULATIONS FOR ULGE
ENGINES: Are certified to operate on regular
unleaded gasoline. Include the following emission
control system(s): EM, TWC (if so equipped); Do not
include any user adjustable features – therefore no
other adjustments are needed.
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.
Fill Crankcase With Oil
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.
The engine is shipped from the factory without oil in
the crankcase. Therefore, before starting the engine,
oil must be added to the crankcase.
•
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.
IMPORTANT: Check level of oil every 5
operating hours or each time unit is used.
Initially, change oil after the first 2 hours of
operation; thereafter, under normal
conditions, change oil after every 25 hours of
operation or annually, whichever comes first.

2.
Move unit to a level surface to ensure an
accurate oil level reading.
Clean area around dipstick to prevent foreign
matter from entering filler hole when dipstick is
removed.
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.
3.
4.
Remove dipstick from crankcase (Fig. 12).
Slowly pour 24 ounces of SAE 5W–30 or
SAE 10 oil into the filler hole. The engine uses
any high–quality detergent oil having the
American Petroleum Institute (API) “service
classification”—SE, SF or SG.
IMPORTANT: NEVER USE METHANOL,
GASOLINE CONTAINING METHANOL,
GASOHOL CONTAINING MORE THAN
10% ETHANOL, PREMIUM GASOLINE,
OR WHITE GAS BECAUSE ENGINE
FUEL SYSTEM DAMAGE COULD
RESULT.
Note:
Dipstick must be fully installed to
ensure accurate gauging of oil level.
DO NOT OVERFILL.
Toro also recommends that Toro
Stabilizer/Conditioner be used regularly in all Toro
gasoline powered products during operation and
