Fuel Recommendations
Use automotive gasoline (unleaded or low leaded to minimize 
combustion chamber deposits) with a minimum of 87 octane. 
Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol or 15% MTBE (Methyl Tertiary 
Butyl Ether) can be used. Never use an oil/gasoline mixture or 
dirty gasoline. Avoid getting dirt, dust, or water in the fuel tank. 
DO NOT use E85 gasoline.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. 
• 
Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where 
the engine is refueled or where gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. After refueling, make sure the 
• 
tank cap is closed properly and securely.
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or 
• 
fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the 
area is dry before starting the engine.
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or 
• 
breathing of vapor.
Adding Fuel
WARNING!  
Use extreme care when handling 
gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable and the 
vapors are explosive.  Never fuel the machine 
indoors or while the engine is hot or running. 
Extinguish cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other 
sources of ignition.
WARNING! 
Always keep hands and feet clear of 
equipment moving parts. Do not use a pressurized 
starting fluid. Vapors are flammable.
Clean around fuel fill before removing cap to fuel.
1. 
A fuel level indicator is located in the fuel tank. Fill tank 
2. 
until fuel reaches the fuel level indictor, Fig. 3-8. Be careful 
not to overfill.
Checking Oil Level
CAUTION: 
The engine is shipped with oil in the 
engine. You must, however, check the oil level prior 
to operating the snow thrower. Running the engine 
with insufficient oil can cause serious engine 
damage and void the engine warranty.
NOTE: Be sure to check the engine on a level surface with the 
engine stopped.
Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe the dipstick 
1. 
clean. See Fig. 3-9.
Insert the cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck, 
2. 
but do not 
screw it in.
Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick. If the level is low, slowly 
3. 
add oil until oil level registers between high (H) and low 
(L), Fig. 3-9.  Refer to the Engine Maintenance section for 
correct oil viscosity and engine oil capacity.
NOTE: Do not overfill. Overfilling with oil may result in 
engine smoking, hard starting or spark plug fouling.
Replace and tighten cap/dipstick firmly before starting

engine.
Tire Pressure
Before operating, check tire pressure and reduce pressure in both 
tires to between 15 psi and 20 psi. 
NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in both tires, the machine 
may not travel in a straight path and the shave plate may wear 
unevenly.
