Before Starting
Danger
Mixing Gasoline and Oil
When fueling, under certain circumstances, a
static charge can develop, igniting the gasoline. A
fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others and damage property.
Your Toro snowthrower is powered by a two-cycle engine
that requires a 50:1 gasoline-to-oil mixture.
Use only clean, unleaded gasoline no more than 30 days old
and with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Using unleaded
gasoline reduces combustion chamber deposits and
promotes longer spark plug life.

•
Always place gasoline containers on the ground
and away from your vehicle before filling.
Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle or
on a truck or trailer bed because interior
carpets or plastic truck bed liners may insulate
the container and slow the loss of any static
charge.
Engines certified to comply with U.S. EPA emission
regulations for ULGE engines are certified to operate on a
mixture of regular unleaded gasoline and oil, include the
following emission control system(s): EM and TWC (if
equipped), and do not include any user-adjustable features.
• When practical, remove gasoline-powered
equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel
the equipment with its wheels on the ground.

Do not use methanol, gasoline containing

equipment on a truck or trailer from a portable
container, not from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
• If you must use a gasoline dispenser nozzle, keep
the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete.
Important
Do not use an automotive oil (such as SAE
30
or 10W30), a two-cycle oil that is not NMMA
TCW-certified, or a fuel mixed at the wrong gasoline-to-oil
ratio. This can cause engine damage not covered under the
Toro warranty.
Note: Use a fuel stabilizer/conditioner for all Toro
gasoline-powered products during operation and storage. A
fuel stabilizer/conditioner cleans the engine during
operation and prevents gum-like varnish deposits from
forming in the engine during storage. A fuel

stabilizer/conditioner works best when you mix it with
fresh gasoline. If you use Toro 50:1 2-Cycle Oil (Fuel

stabilizer/conditioner.

flammable and highly explosive. A fire or

Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, and
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline
that spills.

filler neck. This empty space in the tank allows
the gasoline to expand.
Note: Do not mix gasoline and oil in the fuel tank. Oil at
room temperature mixes easier and more thoroughly than
cold oil. Oil below 32°F (0°C) requires additional mixing.
•
Never smoke when handling gasoline, and stay
away from an open flame or where a spark may
ignite the gasoline fumes.
Store gasoline in an approved fuel container and
keep it out of the reach of children.
Never buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline.
