GENERAL INFORMATION
Two-cycle
Two-cycle engines are used on TORO Trimmers
because of their:
1.
Light weight.
2.
Excellent power-to-weight ratio
3.
Ability to operate
4. Easy maintenance
5. Simple construction
The
TORO
TC-300 and TC-400 Trimmers is a third-port, loop-
scavenged design. This design name describes the

EXHAUST
NOTE: Some states require that a spark arrester be
attached to the muffler if the trimmer is to be used
forested areas, or on other public lands. Be sure to
check your local state laws before using your gasoline powered trimmer.
An important part of the maintenance procedure for
all
two-cycle engines is the cleaning or decarboning
of
the
unobstructed flow of exhaust gases and particles
from the combustion chamber. A severely carboned
muffler, spark arrester screen. and/or exhaust port
will
cause poor starting and low power output of the
trimm'er engine.

Remove the muffler shield, screen, muffler and
exhaust gasket.
