Introduction Safety Read this manual carefully to learn how to operate and maintain your product properly. The information in this manual can help you and others avoid injury and product damage. Although Toro designs and produces safe products, you are responsible for operating the product properly and safely. This machine meets or exceeds CEN standard EN 836:1997, ISO standard 5395:1990, and ANSI B71.
• Remember there is no such thing as a safe slope. Travel on grass slopes requires particular care. To guard against overturning: • The owner/user can prevent and is responsible for accidents or injuries occurring to himself or herself, other people, or property. – do not stop or start suddenly when going up or downhill; Preparation • While mowing, always wear substantial footwear, long trousers, hard hat, safety glasses, and ear protection.
• Disengage drives, lower the cutting units, set parking brake, stop engine and remove key and disconnect spark plug wire. Wait for all movement to stop before adjusting, cleaning or repairing. – before making height adjustment unless adjustment can be made from the operator’s position. – before clearing blockages; – before checking, cleaning or working on the mower; • Clean grass and debris from cutting units, drives, silencers/mufflers, and engine to help prevent fires. Clean up oil or fuel spillage.
• Before disconnecting or performing any work on the hydraulic system, all pressure in the system must be relieved by stopping the engine and lowering the cutting units and attachments to the ground. • Check the safety interlock switches daily for proper operation. If a switch should fail, replace the switch before operating the machine. After every two years, replace all four interlock switches in the safety system, whether they are working properly or not.

Reel Speed Controls 1. Sit on the seat, keep foot off traction pedal. Ensure that the parking brake is engaged, traction pedal is in NEUTRAL, throttle is in FAST position and the ENABLE/DISABLE switch is in the DISABLE position. The reel speed controls (Fig. 27) control the RPM of front and rear cutting units. #1 position is for backlapping. Remaining settings are for mowing operations. See section in manual for operating instructions. 2. Turn ignition switch to ON/Preheat position.
Danger Under certain conditions, diesel fuel and fuel vapors are highly flammable and explosive. A fire or explosion from fuel can burn you and others and can cause property damage. • Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, when the engine is off and is cold. Wipe up any fuel that spills. • Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add fuel to the fuel tank until the level is 1/4 to 1/2 in. (6 to 13 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck.
Adjusting the Lift Arm Down Pressure Towing the Traction Unit If it becomes necessary to tow the machine, tow it forward only, for a short distance and at a speed no greater than 3 mph. The down pressure spring on each cutting unit lift arm can be adjusted to compensate for different turf conditions. Increased down pressure will help keep the cutting units on the ground when mowing at higher speeds and helps maintain a uniform height-of-cut in rough conditions or in areas of thatch build up.
3. Attach the other end of the towing device to a vehicle that is capable of towing the machine safely and at speeds below 3 mph. • Fuses are blown. 4. An operator must be on the machine to steer it and keep the traction pedal fully depressed in the forward position while towing. Check electrical connections, input fuses and diagnostic light bulb to determine malfunction. Make sure loopback connector is secured to wire harness connector. • Not functioning correctly. 5.
blink on and off when corresponding switch is closed. Repeat on each switch that is it possible to be changed by hand. 7. If switch is closed and appropriate LED does not turn on, check all wiring and connections to switch and/or check switches with an ohm meter. Replace any defective switches and repair any defective wiring. The Diagnostic ACE also has the ability to detect which output solenoids or relays are turned on. This is a quick way to determine if a machine malfunction is electrical or hydraulic.
If the output LED’s are on as specified, but the machine does not function properly, this indicates a non–electrical problem. Repair as necessary. Operating Characteristics Note: Due to electrical system constraints, the output LED’s for “START”, “PREHEAT” and “ETR/ALT” may not blink even though an electrical problem may exist for those functions.
