GAS POWER SHOVEL
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS FOR GASOLINE
AND OIL
4.
Add an additional three quarts of gasoline to the
premixed gasoline. The fuel mixture is now ready
to use in your snowthrower.
Safety Instructions
CAUTION
CAUTION
Do not store the oil near an open flame or in an
extremely warm environment as the oil is
flammable.
Gasoline is flammable and caution must be used
when handling or storing it. Do not fill the fuel
tank while snowthrower is running, while it is hot,
or when it is in an enclosed area. Keep away from
an open flame, an electrical spark, and DO NOT
SMOKE while mixing fuel or filling the fuel tank.
Fill the fuel tank to within 1/4 - 1/2 inch from top of
the tank to provide space for expansion of fuel.
Never fill the fuel tank to the top of filler neck.
Always fill the fuel tank outdoors and use a funnel
or spout to prevent spilling. Make sure to wipe up
any spilled fuel before starting the engine.
IMPORTANT: If the fuel and Toro 2-cycle oil are not
mixed at the correct ratio for your snowthrower,
(32:1) piston damage and other engine damage
may occur. It is important that the fuel and oil be
mixed at temperatures above 40°F to ensure
complete mixing.
Note: To assure the fuel and oil mixes completely,
store your Toro 2-Cycle Oil indoors, so it will be at room
temperature (above 50°F).
Store gasoline in a clean, approved container, and
keep the cap in place on the container. Keep
gasoline in a cool, well ventilated place; never in
the house. Never buy more than a 30 day supply
of gasoline to assure volatility. Gasoline is
intended to be used as a fuel for internal
combustion engines; therefore, do not use
gasoline for any other purpose. Since many
children like the smell of gasoline, keep it out of
their reach because the fumes are dangerous to
inhale, as well as being explosive.
Filling The Fuel Tank
IMPORTANT: Do not fill the fuel tank with gasoline
that has not been mixed with Toro 2-cycle engine
oil in the correct ratio for your snowthrower. Do
not pour Toro 2-Cycle Engine Oil directly into the
snowthrower fuel tank. Do not use gasoline
additives or fuels that contain methanol or over
10% ethanol.

Proper Fuel And Oil
The Toro Gas Power Shovel is powered by a 2-cycle
engine which requires a 32:1 mixture of gasoline and
Toro 2-Cycle Engine Oil.
Clean the area around the snowthrower fuel tank
cap so foreign matter does not get into the fuel
tank. Remove the cap from the fuel tank.
Mixing Procedures
Shake the fuel mixture in the gasoline container;
then fill the snowthrower fuel tank to within 1/4 -
1/2 inch from the top of the tank, not the filler neck.
Use the following procedure to assure the fuel is
properly mixed:
Note: When filling the fuel tank with a gasoline/oil
mixture that has been sitting for some time, shake
the mixture before filling the fuel tank to assure the
gasoline and oil properly mix.

3.
Add one quart of unleaded regular gasoline to a
gasoline container.
Pour 4 ounces of Toro 2-cycle engine oil into the
gasoline container before shaking.
4.
Install the cap securely on snowthrower fuel tank.
Shake the gasoline container vigorously so the oil
mixes with the gasoline. Remember to install the
cap on the gasoline container before shaking.
Single Stage Snowthrower Service Manual
9 - 3
(3 votes, average: 4.67 out of 5)
Lawn and Garden readers have rated Toro Single Stage Snow Blower Service Manual 4.7 out of 5.0 based on 3 product reviews. EXCELLENT . Hard to find manual and very detailed . Only downside is the pics and wording in pics are backwards , but I can deal with that
The manual provides detailed step-by-step instructions for engine removal and installation but there is nothing in it about repair of the recoil starter. The engine removal instructions will be helpful because the starter is buried behind the fuel tank and engine support bracket. I think my problem is a sticking starter dog but getting to it will be a major project.
