Filling The Fuel Tank; Checking The Engine Oil Level - Toro Recycler Manual Del Operador

Operation

Filling the Fuel Tank

Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive.
A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you
and others.
• To prevent a static charge from igniting the
gasoline, place the container and/or mower
directly on the ground before filling, not in a
vehicle or on an object.
• Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is
cold. Wipe up spills.
• Do not handle gasoline when smoking or
around an open flame or sparks.
• Store gasoline in an approved fuel container,
out of the reach of children.
Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded regular gasoline
from a major name-brand service station (Figure 9).
Note: Never use methanol, gasoline containing
methanol, or gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol
because the fuel system could be damaged. Do not mix
oil with gasoline.
Important: To reduce starting problems, add
fuel stabilizer to the fuel all season, mixing it with
gasoline less than 30 days old.

Checking the Engine Oil Level

Service Interval: Before each use or daily
1. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and fully install
the dipstick (Figure 10).
2. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level
(Figure 10). If the oil level is below the Add mark on
the dipstick, slowly pour oil into the oil fill tube to
raise the oil level to the Full mark on the dipstick.
Do not overfill. (Max. fill: 20 oz. (0.59 l), type: SAE
30 detergent oil with an API service classification of
SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, or higher.)
