Toro Power Max 726OE 38816 Operator's Manual

To start the Toro Power Max 726OE, ensure it is on a flat surface, set the choke to the 'ON' position, prime the engine by pressing the primer bulb a few times, and then pull the recoil starter or use the electric start button if equipped.
Use fresh, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of at least 87 and an ethanol content no greater than 10%. Avoid using E15 or E85 fuel.
Routinely check the auger system for damage or wear. Ensure the shear pins are intact, and replace them if broken. Lubricate the auger bearings with a high-quality lubricant as specified in the manual.
Check for clogs in the discharge chute or auger housing. Ensure the impeller and auger are not worn or damaged. Adjust the chute deflector to control the distance of snow discharge.
To change the oil, run the engine for a few minutes to warm it up, then turn it off. Remove the oil drain plug and allow the oil to drain into a suitable container. Replace the drain plug and refill with the recommended oil type and quantity.
Ensure the fuel tank is filled, check the spark plug for wear or damage, and verify that the choke and throttle settings are correct. If the problem persists, consult the manual or contact a service technician.
Refer to the snow thrower's manual for the exact tire pressure specifications, but generally, it should be around 20 psi. Adjust as needed based on the manual's recommendations.
Clean the snow thrower thoroughly, drain or stabilize the fuel, change the oil, and store it in a dry, protected area. Cover it to prevent dust accumulation and check periodically for any signs of wear or damage.
Before each winter season, check the spark plug, change the oil, inspect the auger and impeller for damage, lubricate moving parts, and ensure all nuts and bolts are tight.
To adjust the skid shoes, loosen the mounting nuts, set the skid shoes to the desired height, typically 1/4 inch above the ground, then retighten the nuts securely.
