What Kind Of Oil Do You Use In A Toro Snowblower?
Toro's Power Clear line of snowblowers includes 11 models designed for residential use after medium to heavy snowfalls. These are gasoline-powered machines, available in both single or double stage models. Single stage are recommended for clearing small to medium size areas of concrete or asphalt where the snowfall is light and fluffy and does not exceed six inches in depth. Double stage models are designed for larger areas of mixed surfaces such as concrete and gravel, and where the snowfall is wet and heavy and over six inches in depth. Toro recommends the same oil grade and viscosity for all four-cycle Power Clear snowblowers. The two-cycle models use an oil/gas mixture for lubrication.
