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, 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.
Mix Gasoline And Oil (Fig. 6)
APPROVED OIL—For simplicity and best engine
performance, mix the contents of one bottle of Toro
50:1 Two–Cycle Oil with two gallons of fresh,
unleaded regular gasoline. 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.
IMPORTANT: YOU CAN ALSO USE TORO
"EASY–MIX" TWO–CYCLE OIL (3.2
OUNCE BOTTLE MIXED ONE PER
GALLON OF GASOLINE) IN THIS TORO
TWO–CYCLE ENGINE.
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.
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.
1.
Mixing Gasoline and Oil—Pour a half gallon of
gasoline in 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.
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.
