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.

away fr om an open flame or wher e gasoline
fumes may be ignited by a spark.

DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
• When fueling, under certain cir cumstances, a
static charge can develop, igniting the gasoline.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• A fir e or explosion fr om gasoline can burn you
and others and cause pr operty damage.
HOW TO AV OID THE HAZARD
• Always place gasoline containers on the gr ound
away from your vehicle befor e filling.
• Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle
or on a truck or trailer bed because interior
carpets or plastic truck bed liners may insulate
the container and slow the loss of any static
charge.
•
When practical, r emove gas–power ed
equipment fr om the truck or trailer and r efuel
the equipment with its wheels on the gr ound.
•
If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment on a truck or trailer fr om a portable
container , rather than fr om a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
• If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used,
keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the
fuel tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete.
Do not use gasoline that has been stored from one season
to the next. Use fresh, clean, unleaded regular grade
gasoline. Unleaded gasoline burns cleaner , extends engine
life, and promotes good starting. Leaded gasoline can be
used if unleaded is not available.
T oro also recommends that T oro Stabilizer/Conditioner be
used regularly during operation and storage. T oro
Stabilizer/Conditioner cleans the engine during operation
and prevents gum-like varnish deposits from forming
during periods of storage.

3. Using unleaded gasoline, fill the fuel tank to within
1/4” to 1/2” (6 to 13 mm) from top of tank, not into
filler neck.
IMPORTANT : Do not fill the tank mor e than 1/4”
fr om the top of the tank because the gasoline must have
r oom to expand.
4. Install the fuel tank cap and wipe up any spilled fuel.
IMPORTANT : Do not mix oil with the gasoline. Never
use methanol, gasoline containing methanol, gasohol
containing mor e than 10% ethanol, or white gas
because the fuel system could be damaged.
Do not use fuel additives other than those
manufactur ed for fuel stabilization during storage,
such as T or o Stabilizer/Conditioner . T oro
Stabilizer/Conditioner is a petr oleum distillate based
pr oduct. T or o does not r ecommend stabilizers with an
alcohol base such as ethanol, methanol, or isopr opyl.
Do not use additives to enhance the power or
performance of the engine.
