To start the Toro Power Max 828 LXE, ensure the fuel valve is open, set the choke to full, and the throttle to fast. Prime the engine 3 times, then pull the recoil starter or use the electric start feature, if available.
Use fresh, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Do not use gasoline with more than 10% ethanol.
Change the oil after the first 2 hours of operation, then annually or every 25 hours of use, whichever comes first.
Check the fuel level, ensure the fuel valve is open, and verify that the spark plug is connected and clean. Make sure the choke and throttle are in the correct positions.
Regularly inspect and clear any debris. Lubricate moving parts annually and check for wear or damage, replacing parts as necessary.
Drain the fuel or add a fuel stabilizer, change the oil, and clean the snow thrower thoroughly. Store in a dry, covered location.
Ensure the skid shoes and scraper bar are properly adjusted and not worn out. Use the right speed setting based on snow conditions.
Check the scraper bar and skid shoes for wear and adjust them as needed. Ensure the auger is moving freely and is not damaged.
Disconnect the spark plug, remove the belt cover, and take off the old belt. Install the new belt over the pulleys, ensuring proper tension, then reattach the cover.
Excessive vibration may be caused by loose or damaged parts. Inspect the auger, impeller, and engine mounts, tightening or replacing parts as needed.
