1. Move unit to a level surface to ensure an
accurate oil level reading.
2. Clean area around dipstick to prevent foreign
matter from entering filler hole when dipstick is
removed.
3. Remove dipstick from crankcase (Fig. 14).
4. Slowly pour 21 ounces (0.621 liters) of SAE
5W–30 or SAE 10 oil into the filler hole. The
engine uses any high–quality detergent oil
having the American Petroleum Institute (API)
“service classification”—SE, SF or SG.
Note: Dipstick must be fully installed to
ensure accurate gauging of oil level.
DO NOT OVERFILL. POUR OIL
SLOWLY.
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.
ENGINES WHICH ARE CERTIFIED TO
COMPLY WITH CALIFORNIA AND U.S. EPA
EMISSION REGULATIONS FOR ULGE
ENGINES: Are certified to operate on regular
unleaded gasoline. Include the following emission
control system(s): EM, TWC (if so equipped); Do not
include any user adjustable features – therefore no
other adjustments are needed.
Fill Fuel Tank With Gasoline
Use clean, fresh lead-free gasoline, including
oxygenated or reformulated gasoline, with an octane
rating of 85 or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase
only the quantity of gasoline that can be used in 30
days. Use of lead-free gasoline results in fewer
combustion chamber deposits and longer spark plug
life. Use of premium grade fuel is not necessary or
recommended.
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.
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.
Note: A fuel stabilizer/conditioner is most
effective when mixed with fresh
gasoline.
DO NOT USE FUEL ADDITIVES OTHER
THAN THOSE MANUFACTURED FOR FUEL
STABILIZATION DURING STORAGE SUCH
AS TORO’S STABILIZER/CONDITIONER OR
A SIMILAR PRODUCT. TORO’S
STABILIZER/CONDITIONER IS A
PETROLEUM DISTILLATE BASED
CONDITIONER/STABILIZER. TORO DOES
NOT RECOMMEND STABILIZERS WITH AN
ALCOHOL BASE SUCH AS ETHANOL,
METHANOL OR ISOPROPYL. ADDITIVES
