enhance and expand its capabilities. Contact your
Authorized Service Dealer or Distributor or go to
www.Toro.com for a list of all approved attachments
and accessories.
Filling the Fuel Tank
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive.
A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you
and others.
• To prevent a static charge from igniting the
gasoline, place the container and/or mower
directly on the ground before filling, not in a
vehicle or on an object.
• Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is
cold. Wipe up spills.
• Do not handle gasoline when smoking or
around an open flame or sparks.
• Store gasoline in an approved fuel container,
out of the reach of children.
Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded regular gasoline
from a major name-brand service station (Figure 7).
Important: To reduce starting problems, add
fuel stabilizer to the fuel all season, mixing it with
gasoline less than 30 days old.

Checking the Engine Oil Level
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
1. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and fully install
the dipstick (Figure 8).
2. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level
(Figure 8). If the oil level is below the Add mark on
the dipstick, slowly pour oil into the oil fill tube to
raise the oil level to the Full mark on the dipstick.
Do not overfill. (Max. fill: 20 oz. (0.59 l), type: SAE
30 detergent oil with an API service classification of
SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, or higher.)
Note: If you overfill the engine, pour some oil out
of it as directed in Changing the Engine Oil.
3. Install the dipstick.
Adjusting the Cutting Height
Adjusting the cutting height may bring you into
contact with the moving blade, causing serious
injury.
• Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts
to stop.
• Do not put your fingers under the housing
when adjusting the cutting height.
If the engine has been running, the muffler will
be hot and can severely burn you. Keep away
from the hot muffler.
Adjust the cutting height as desired. Set all four wheels
to the same height.
