Stopping The Engine - Toro 22606 Manuel D'installation

Starting and Stopping the
Engine
Starting the Engine
1. Turn the engine ON/OFF switch to the "I" ON position
(Figure 11-1).
2. Move the choke lever left to the ON position if you are
starting a cold engine (Figure 11-2). A warm or hot
engine may not require choking.
3. Move the throttle lever 1/3 way to the FAST position
(Figure 11-3).
4. Move the fuel valve to the Open position, all the way to
the right (Figure 11-4).
5. Pull the starter handle lightly until you feel resistance, then
pull the handle briskly (Figure 11-5). Return the starter
handle gently.

6. After the engine starts, gradually move the choke lever
back to the Off position. If the engine stalls or hesitates,
move the choke back to On again until the engine warms
up. Then move it to the Off position.
7. Move the throttle lever to the FAST position.

Stopping the Engine

1. Move the throttle lever to the SLOW position. If the engine
has been working hard or is hot, let it run for a minute
before turning off. This helps to cool the engine before
stopping. In an emergency, the engine may be stopped
immediately.
2. Turn the engine ON/OFF switch to the "O" OFF position.
3. Move the fuel valve to the Closed position, all the way to
the left.

Using the Log Splitter
WARNING
Do not attempt to operate the log splitter without fully
understanding all instructions, safety precautions, and/or
warnings.
• Always wear protective gear, such as safety goggles, face
shield, hearing protection, tight-fitting gloves without
draw strings or loose cuffs, and steel-toed shoes, when
using the machine.
• Make sure you are standing in the safe operating area,
as shown in these pictures. You must stay in the safe
operating area at all times when the splitting wedge is in
motion (whether extending or retracting).

• Never place any part of your body into a position that
causes an unsafe operating condition.
1. Place the log splitter on level, dry ground and block the
front and back of both wheels to prevent any movement.
2. Make sure you read all the recommendations from the
"Safety" section before using the log splitter.
3. Adjust the rail position horizontal or vertical as desired and
lock in position.
4. Start the engine; refer to Starting the Engine and allow
engine to warm up at idle for two minutes.
5. Make sure both ends of the log you are splitting are cut as
square as possible. This will prevent the log from sliding
out of position while under pressure. All logs should be
shorter than 24 inches (60 cm) long.
6. Place the log against the end plate and only split wood in
the direction of the grain.
