Checking And Adjusting The Skids; Inspecting The Throwing Edges; Changing The Engine Oil - Toro SnowMaster Manual

SPECIFICATIONS AND MAINTENANCE
Checking and Adjusting the
Skids
Service Interval: Yearly
Check the skids to ensure that the auger does not contact
the paved surface. Adjust the skids as needed to
compensate for wear (Figure 2).
1.
Loosen the skid bolts.
2.
Slide a 5 mm (3/16 inch) board underneath the
scraper.
Note: Using a thinner board will result in a more
aggressive scraper. A thicker board will result in a
less aggressive scraper.
3.
Lower the skids to the ground.
Note: Ensure the skids are flat on the ground.
4.
Tighten the skid bolts

Inspecting the Throwing
Edges
Service Interval: Yearly—Inspect the throwing
edges and have an Authorized Service Dealer
replace the throwing edges and scraper if necessary.
Before each session, inspect the throwing edges for wear.
When a throwing edge has worn down to the wear
indicator hole, have an Authorized Service Dealer replace
the throwing edges (Figure 3).
1. The wear indicator hole
is intact; you do not need
to replace the throwing
edges.

Changing the Engine Oil

Service Interval: After the first 2 hours
Yearly
Run the engine a few minutes before changing the oil to
warm it. Warm oil flows better and carries more
contaminants.
1. Move the machine to a level surface.
2. Place an oil drain pan under the oil-drain plug,
remove the oil-drain plug, and tip the machine
backward and drain the used oil in the oil-drain pan
(Figure 4).
