Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Hi to all:

Just joined this forum. Find very informative. Thanks.

My question is this. I just bought a Toro Snowthrower. It shows on it CR 20E. I take it this is the model. Anyway, I don't know how old it is but starts and works no problem. Blows alittle oil but I corrected that by putting in the right fuel mixture. I took the cover off the belt. I find it very loose. I don't know how to tighten it or if it has to be. I'm asking if anyone ever had this model. There isn't much to them as I believe there usage is for walkways, paths or very light snow. Any information would be appreciated up here in Cold Nova Scotia, Canada. Thanks for your time and information.

What oil do I use for Medel 55420 CR20E  How do I start it?

I have an old (CR20) rope start from 1987.  The fuel/oil mix on it is 32/1.  Good old machine but pretty worn out.  I just purchased a Husqvarna 5021 to replace it.  Rick.
