Before Operating DANGER POTENTIAL HAZARD In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. WHAT CAN HAPPEN A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you, others, and cause property damage. HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD • Always place gasoline containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.
Before Operating 2. Shift the gear selector to REVERSE. Adjust the non-compressed spring height to 25–28mm (1” to 1-1/8”). Check Tire Pressure Check tire pressure every 8 hours or daily to assure proper levels. Air pressure range in front and rear tires is 55–103 kPa (8–15 psi). The needed air pressure is determined by the payload carried. The lower the air pressure, the less the compaction and tire marks are minimized. Lower pressure should not be used for heavy payloads at high speeds.
Operation on a steep grade, make sure the parking brake is applied. Place blocks at the downhill side of the wheels. Think Safety First Please carefully read all the safety instructions and symbols in the safety section. Knowing this information could help you or bystanders avoid injury. 2 3 Controls 1 Accelerator Pedal The accelerator pedal (Fig. 4) gives the operator the ability to vary ground speed of the vehicle. Depressing the pedal starts the engine.
Operation Gear Shift Selector The gear shift selector moves the vehicle in the desired direction forward or reverse (Fig. 5). The vehicle will start in either direction. Note: If the gear shift selector is in REVERSE when the ignition is turned on, a buzzer will sound to warn the operator.the IMPORTANT: The vehicle should always be stopped before changing the gear selection and direction. Figure 6 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Ignition Switch The ignition switch (Fig.

Operation help, ask your supervisor for assistance. performance until several hours of use has caused the brakes to become burnished (broke-in). Many factors contribute to accidents. You have control over several of the most important. Your actions, such as driving too fast for conditions, braking too fast, turning too sharp, and combinations of these, are frequent cause of accidents. • Vary vehicle speeds during operation. Avoid fast starts and quick stops.
Operation Speed Speed is one of the most important variables leading to accidents. Driving too fast for the conditions can cause you to lose control and have an accident. Speed can also make a minor accident worse. Driving head-on into a tree at slow speed can cause injury and damage, but, driving into a tree at high speed can destroy the vehicle and kill you and your passenger. If you drive through standing water deep enough to get the brakes wet, they will not work well until they are dry.
Operation cautiously as possible. Never make sharp or fast turns on a hill. If you stall or begin to lose headway while climbing a steep hill, quickly apply the brakes, shift to reverse, and restart the engine. Reduce the weight of the load if it is a steep hill or if the load has high center of gravity. Remember, loads can shift. Secure them. Loading and Dumping will make the vehicle much more likely to tip over on that side.
Operation Towing The Vehicle Trailer Towing WARNING POTENTIAL HAZARD Towing at excessive speeds could cause the vehicle to lose steering control. WHAT CAN HAPPEN Loss of control could result in personal injury. HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD Never tow the vehicle faster than 8 kmh (5 mph). In case of emergency, the vehicle can be towed for a short distance. However, Toro does not recommend this as a standard procedure. Towing the vehicle is a two-person job.
