To start the Toro snow thrower, ensure the fuel tank is filled with fresh gasoline, set the choke to the 'on' position, and pull the starter handle. Once the engine starts, gradually move the choke to the 'off' position.
Check if the fuel is fresh, the spark plug is clean and properly connected, and the choke is set correctly. If these are fine, inspect the fuel line and carburetor for clogs.
Change the oil after the first 5 hours of use, then regularly every 25 hours or once per season to ensure optimal performance.
Use 5W-30 synthetic oil for the best performance in cold weather conditions.
Regularly inspect for any debris or ice buildup, lubricate the bearings and shafts, and ensure that shear pins are intact and not worn.
Empty the fuel tank, change the oil, clean the snow thrower thoroughly, and store it in a dry place. It's also advisable to remove the spark plug and add a few drops of oil into the cylinder to prevent rust.
To prevent clogging, avoid processing wet or heavy snow, and regularly apply a non-stick spray to the chute and auger housing.
Check the auger and impeller for obstructions, ensure the engine is running at full throttle, and inspect the belt for wear or damage.
Loosen the skid shoe bolts, adjust the skid shoe to the desired height, ensuring it's even on both sides, then retighten the bolts.
Inspect the engine mounts and impeller for damage, check for loose parts, and ensure that the auger is not bent or damaged.
