Introduction Caution signals a hazard that may cause minor or moderate injury if you do not follow the recommended precautions. 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 manual uses two other words to highlight information.
Preparation • Keep hands and feet away from the cutting units. • Evaluate the terrain to determine what accessories and attachments are needed to properly and safely perform the job. Only use accessories and attachments approved by the manufacturer. • Look behind and down before backing up to be sure of a clear path. • Never carry passengers and keep pets and bystanders away. • Wear appropriate clothing including hard hat, safety glasses and ear protection.
Toro Mower Safety • Stay clear of the rotating screen at the side of the engine to prevent direct contact with your body or clothing. The following list contains safety information specific to Toro products or other safety information that you must know that is not included in the ANSI standards. • If a cutting unit strikes a solid object or vibrates abnormally, stop immediately, turn the engine off, wait for all motion to stop, and inspect the machine for damage.
Sound Pressure • Do not overspeed the engine by changing governor settings. To ensure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized Toro Distributor check the maximum engine speed with a tachometer. Maximum governed engine speed should be 2900 RPM. This unit has a maximum sound pressure level at the operator’s ear of 86 dBA, based on measurements of identical machines per Directive 98/37/EC. • The engine must be shut off before checking the oil or adding oil to the crankcase.
