SET UP INSTRUCTIONS 3. Replace filler caps with vents pointing to the rear (toward fuel tank) and connect a 3 to 4 amp battery charger to the battery posts. Charge the battery at a rate of 3 to 4 amperes for 4 to 8 hours. 4. When battery is charged, disconnect charger from electrical outlet and battery posts. 5. Remove filler caps. Slowly add electrolyte to each cell until level is up to fill ring. Install filler caps. IMPORTANT: Do not overfill battery.
BEFORE OPERATING CAUTION Before servicing or making adjustments to the machine, stop engine and remove key from the switch. FILL FUEL TANK (Fig. 19) The engine runs on No. 2 diesel fuel. Fuel tank capacity is approximately 6.5 gallons. 1. Clean area around fuel tank cap. 1 CHECK CRANKCASE OIL (Fig. 17-18) The engine is shipped with oil in the crankcase; however, level of oil must be checked before and after the engine is first started. Crankcase capacity is approximately 3 qts. (2.8 l) with filter. 1.
BEFORE OPERATING Group 1 Hydraulic Fluid (Recommended for ambient temperatures consistently below 100° F.): ISO type 46/68 anti-wear hydraulic fluid 1 3 2 Figure 20 1. Radiator screen 2. Radiator 3. Oil cooler CAUTION If engine has been running, pressurized hot coolant can escape when radiator cap is removed and cause burns. Only open radiator cap when engine is cold. 1. Carefully remove cap from radiator.
BEFORE OPERATING 3. If fluid level is not at least at bottom of gauge when cold, remove cap from hydraulic fluid reservoir and slowly fill reservoir with Mobil 424 or equivalent hydraulic fluid until level in reaches bottom of sight gauge. DO NOT OVERFILL. 3. Inspect fuel filter and replace if dirty. Refer to Replacing Fuel Filter. DANGER Because diesel fuel is flammable, use caution when storing or handling it. Do not smoke while filling the fuel tank.
CONTROLS Traction and Stopping Pedal (Fig. 24 & 25) Traction pedal has three functions: one, to make the machine move forward, two, to move it backward and three, to stop machine. Using the heel and toe of the right foot, depress top of pedal to move forward and bottom of pedal to move backward or to assist in stopping when moving forward. Also, allow pedal to move or move it to neutral position to stop machine. For operator comfort, do not rest heel of foot on reverse when operating forward. position.
CONTROLS Alternator Light (Fig. 26) The amp light should be off when engine is running. If it is on, the charging system should be checked and repaired as necessary. Glow Plug Indicator (Fig. 26) Indicator light will glow when glow plugs are operating. Cold Start Button (Fig. 26) When starting a cold engine, press cold start button to electrically de-clutch traction pump. When engine starts release button.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS STARTING/STOPPING ENGINE BLEEDING FUEL SYSTEM (Fig. 32-33) IMPORTANT: The fuel system may have to be bled if any of the following situations have occurred: 1. Park the machine on a level surface. Make sure fuel tank is at least half full. 2. Unlatch and raise hood. A. Initial start up of a new engine. DANGER B. Engine has ceased running due to lack of fuel. C. Maintenance has been performed upon fuel system components; i.e. filter replaced, etc. Refer to Bleeding Fuel System 1.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS extended, the light should go out and the reel motors stop turning. Correct problem if not operating properly. 1 5 4 5. With operator on seat, the engine must not start with either reel switch engaged or traction control engaged. Correct problem if not operating properly. TOWING TRACTION UNIT (Fig. 34) 3 In case of emergency, the Reelmaster can be towed for a short distance. However, Toro does not recommend this as a standard procedure.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Follow operating guidelines presented in this manual and know how to operate the machine safely on all types of terrain. Use the slope gauge, page 39, to assist in determining slope angles of questionable areas. Hills (or slopes) over 15 degrees should be traversed or mowed up and down, not side to side and hills over 20 degrees should generally be avoided unless special safeguards, skills and conditions exist.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE MOWING Inspect the area for debris and clear area if necessary. Determine the direction best to mow on the previous mowing direction. Always mow in an alternate pattern from the previous mowing, so that the grass blades will be less apt to lay down and therefore be difficult to gather between the reel blades and bedknife.

SERVICE INTERVAL CHART LUBRICATION GREASING BEARINGS AND BUSHINGS Also, apply grease to slots in cylinder support (Fig. 43). (Fig. 36-43) The traction unit has grease fittings that must be lubricated regularly with No. 2 General Purpose Lithium Base Grease. If machine is operated under normal conditions, lubricate bearings and bushings after every 50 hours of operation. Bearings and bushings must be lubricated daily when operating conditions are extremely dusty and dirty.

MAINTENANCE CAUTION 3 Before servicing or making adjustments to the machine, stop engine and remove key from the switch. 1 ÇÇÇ ÇÇÇ ÇÇÇ HOOD REMOVAL (Fig. 44) Hood may be easily removed to ease maintenance procedures in engine area of machine. 1. Unlatch and raise hood. 1 2. Remove cotter pin securing hood pivot to mounting brackets. Figure 45 1 1. Air cleaner latches 2. Dust cup 3. Filter 2. Gently slide filter out of air cleaner body to reduce the amount of dust dislodged.
MAINTENANCE CLEANING RADIATOR AND SCREEN (Fig. 46) CHANGING HYDRAULIC SYSTEM FLUID AND FILTER (Fig. 47-48) To prevent the system from overheating, radiator screen, radiator and oil cooler must be kept clean. Check the screen, radiator and oil cooler daily and, if necessary, clean any debris off these parts. Clean these components more frequently in dusty dirty conditions.
MAINTENANCE 6. Place all controls in neutral or disengaged position and start engine. Run engine at lowest possible RPM to purge the system of air. 7. Run engine until lift cylinders extend and retract and forward and reverse wheel motion is achieved. 8. Stop the engine and check the oil level in reservoir, add oil if necessary. 9. Check all connections for leaks. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM REPLACING FUEL FILTER (Fig. 51) Inspect fuel filter bowl, daily, for water or other contaminants.
MAINTENANCE ADJUSTING TRANSMISSION FOR NEUTRAL (Fig. 52) 4. After adjusting the pump plate, check neutral switch operation and if necessary, adjust as follows: If the machine creeps" when the traction control pedal is in the neutral position, the neutral return mechanism must be adjusted. 1. Block up under the frame so one of the front wheels is off the floor. Place selector control in two wheel drive position. 2.
MAINTENANCE ADJUST TRACTION PEDAL DAMPER (Fig. 55) 1 1. To expose traction pedal damper, remove right hand panel. 2. Loosen locknut securing damper pivot to damper bracket. 3. Depress traction pedal fully forward. Figure 54 1. Engine belt 2. Adjust belt to proper tension and tighten bolts. ADJUSTING TRACTION PEDAL (Fig. 55) If traction pedal contacts footrest when pushed fully forward or maximum forward traction speed is unattainable, an adjustment to the traction pedal linkage is required. 1.
MAINTENANCE BATTERY CARE BATTERY STORAGE 1. Battery electrolyte level must be properly maintained and the top of the battery kept clean. lf the machine is stored in a location where temperatures are extremely high, the battery will run down more rapidly than if the machine is stored in a location where temperatures are cool. If the machine will be stored more than 30 days, remove the battery and charge it fully. Either store it on the shelf on the machine.
BACKLAPPING DANGER TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH: Never place hands or feet in reel area while engine is running. While backlapping, reels may stall and then restart. Do not attempt to restart reels by hand or foot. Do not adjust reels while engine is running. If reel stalls, stop engine before attempting to clear reel. 1. Position machine on a clean, level surface, lower the cutting units, stop the engine, engage parking brake and remove key from ignition switch. 2.
