Wipe up any gasoline that spills.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the level
is 1/4” to 1/2” (6 mm to 13 mm) below the
bottom of the filler neck. This empty space
in the tank allows gasoline to expand.
• Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark.
• Store gasoline in an approved container
and keep it out of the reach of children.
• Never buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline.
4. Always open the fuel tank cap slowly to release
any possible overpressure inside the tank.
5. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Stop filling 1/4–1/2
inch (6mm–13mm) from the top of the tank.
6. Tighten the tank fuel cap carefully but firmly
after refilling.
7. Wipe up any spilled fuel before starting the
engine.
8. Move the Brushcutter at least 10 feet (3 m) away
from the fueling location and fuel storage
container before starting the engine (Fig. 2).
Recommended Oil Type
Only use a two-cycle engine oil formulated for use in
high-performance, air-cooled two-cycle engines. Toro
brand 2-cycle oil is formulated for use in
high-performance, air-cooled two-cycle engines.
1. Do not smoke near fuel.
2. Mix and pour fuel outdoors and where there are
no sparks or flames.
3. Always shut off the engine before refueling.
Never remove the Brushcutter fuel tank cap
while the engine is running or right after just
stopping the engine.
7
IMPORTANT: Do not use National Marine
Manufacturer’s Association (NMMA) or BIA
certified oils. This type of 2–cycle engine oil
does not have the proper additives for
air-cooled, 2–cycle engines and can cause
engine damage.
Do not use automotive motor oil. This type of
oil does not have the proper additives for
air-cooled, 2–cycle engines and can cause
engine damage.
Page 17
Recommended Fuel Type
Use clean, fresh lead-free gasoline, including
oxygenated or reformulated gasoline, with an octane
rating of 85 or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase
only the quantity of gasoline that can be used in 30
days. Use of lead-free gasoline results in fewer
combustion chamber deposits and longer spark plug
life. Use of premium grade fuel is not necessary or
recommended.
Use Of Fuel Additives
IMPORTANT: NEVER USE METHANOL,
GASOLINE CONTAINING METHANOL,
GASOHOL CONTAINING MORE THAN
10% ETHANOL, PREMIUM GASOLINE,
OR WHITE GAS BECAUSE ENGINE
FUEL SYSTEM DAMAGE COULD
RESULT.
Mixing Gasoline And Oil
IMPORTANT: The engine used on this
Brushcutter is of a 2–cycle design. The
internal moving parts of the engine, i.e.,
crankshaft bearings, piston pin bearings and
piston to cylinder wall contact surfaces,
require oil mixed with the gasoline for
lubrication.
Failure to add oil to the gasoline or failure to
mix oil with the gasoline at the appropriate
ratio will cause major engine damage which
will void your warranty.
For your fuel premix, only use a quality oil
designed for 2–cycle air cooled engines. Toro
50:1 2–Cycle Oil is formulated to meet the
requirements of high-performance, air-cooled
two-cycle engines.
Fuel Mixture
The fuel:oil ratio is 50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil or
50:1.
DO NOT USE FUEL ADDITIVES OTHER
THAN THOSE MANUFACTURED FOR
FUEL STABILIZATION DURING
STORAGE SUCH AS TORO’S
STABILIZER/CONDITIONER OR A
SIMILAR PRODUCT. TORO’S
STABILIZER/CONDITIONER IS A
PETROLEUM DISTILLA TE BASED
CONDITIONER/STABILIZER.
TORO DOES NOT RECOMMEND
STABILIZERS WITH AN ALCOHOL BASE
SUCH AS ETHANOL, METHANOL OR
ISOPROPYL. ADDITIVES SHOULD NOT
BE USED TO TRY TO ENHANCE THE
POWER OR PERFORMANCE OF
MACHINE.
Note: Never use a mixing ratio less than
50:1 regardless of the oil package
mixing instructions. Ratios less the
50:1, (for example, 60:1, 80:1,
100:1), reduce the amount of
lubrication to the internal moving
parts of the engine and can cause
damage.

Mixing Instructions
Starting And Stopping
IMPORTANT: Never mix gasoline and oil
directly in the Brushcutter fuel tank.
1. Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container
approved for gasoline.
2. Mark the container to identify it as fuel mix for
the Brushcutter.
3. Use regular unleaded gasoline and fill the
container with half the required amount of
gasoline.
4. Pour the correct amount of oil into the container
then add the remaining amount of gasoline.
5. Close the container tightly and shake it
momentarily to evenly mix the oil and the
gasoline before filling the fuel tank on the
Brushcutter.
Before Starting The Engine
1. Fill the fuel tank as instructed in the Before
Operation section of this manual.
2. Rest the Brushcutter on the ground.
3. Make sure the Brushcutter blade is clear of any
broken glass, nails, wire, rocks or other debris.
4. Keep all bystanders, children and animals away

Cold Starting Procedure
The carburetors on Toro engines contain a choke
system. To start a “cold” engine properly, perform the
following procedure:
1. Pump the primer bulb at the bottom of the
carburetor until fuel can be seen flowing through
the fuel return line to the fuel tank (Fig. 13).
(Flowing fuel should be almost clear, not foamy
or full of bubbles.)
2. Move the choke lever to the closed (
and move the stop switch to the “ON” position
(Figs. 14 and 15).
) position
6. When refilling the Brushcutter fuel tank, clean
around the fuel tank cap to prevent dirt and
debris from entering the tank during cap
removal.
7. Always shake the premix fuel container
momentarily before filling the fuel tank
8. Always use a spout or funnel when fueling to
reduce fuel spillage.
9. Fill the tank only to within 1/4–1/2 inch
(6mm–13mm) from the top of the tank. Avoid
filling to the top of the tank filler neck.

equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti–smog standards. In other states, new 1997 and later model
year utility/lawn/garden equipment engines must be designed, built and equipped, at the time of sale, to
meet the U.S. EPA regulations for small nonroad engines. The equipment engine must be free from
defects in materials and workmanship which cause it to fail to conform with U.S. EPA standards for the
first two years of engine use from the date of sale to the ultimate purchaser. Toro must warrant the
emission control system on your utility/lawn/garden equipment engine for the period of time listed above
provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your utility/lawn/garden
