To start the Toro OEM-190-032 Snow Thrower, ensure the fuel valve is open and the choke is set to the 'on' position. Press the primer bulb a few times, then pull the starter handle quickly. Once the engine starts, gradually move the choke to the 'off' position.
If the snow thrower doesn't start, check the fuel level, ensure the spark plug is clean and connected, and verify that the choke is set correctly. Also, make sure the throttle is in the correct position and the primer bulb has been pressed the recommended number of times.
Regular maintenance should be performed at the beginning of the snow season and after every 25 hours of use. This includes checking the oil level, inspecting the spark plug, and cleaning the fuel system.
To store the snow thrower, drain the fuel tank or add a fuel stabilizer, clean the machine thoroughly, and cover it to protect from dust and moisture. Store in a dry, sheltered area.
Use a high-quality 4-cycle engine oil with the appropriate viscosity for the temperature range in which you will be operating the snow thrower. Refer to the owner's manual for specific recommendations.
To clear a clogged discharge chute, first turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire. Use a clean-out tool or a stick to remove the blockage. Never use your hands.
If the snow thrower is not throwing snow far enough, check for a clogged discharge chute, ensure the auger and impeller are not damaged, and verify that the engine is running at full throttle.
To improve traction, consider installing tire chains or using snow tires. Ensure the tires are properly inflated and consider adding weight to the machine for better grip.
If the auger is not engaging, check the auger drive cable for tension and wear. Ensure the belt is not broken or slipping and adjust or replace components as necessary.
To replace the scraper blade, first disconnect the spark plug. Then, remove the bolts securing the old scraper blade and attach the new one, ensuring it is aligned correctly. Tighten the bolts securely.
