Quickly and easily clear 18 in. wide by 12 in. deep snow, and blast compacted snow and ice where you want it up to 25 ft. Ideal for concrete and asphalt surfaces that can park up to 4+ cars and 2 \u2013 9 in. of snow at a time. Plus, you have peace of mind knowing that Toro stands behind its products with a full warranty, not just limited coverage. Count on it.<\/p>\n

Choose the right fuel<\/b> for your snowblower. For best starting results use Non-ethanol fuel with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Use fresh fuel less than 30 days old, add fuel stabilizer to reduce starting problems. Do not mix oil with gas.
