serial numbers of your product ready. Figure 1 illustrates the location of the model and serial numbers on the product. Safety Improper use or maintenance by the operator or owner can result in injury. To reduce the potential for injury, comply with these safety instructions and always pay attention to the safety alert symbol, which means CAUTION, WARNING, or DANGER—“personal safety instruction.” Failure to comply with the instruction may result in personal injury or death.
Before Operating – Do not remove the cap from the fuel tank when the engine is hot or running. • Operate the machine only after reading and understanding the contents of this manual. – Do not smoke while handling gasoline. • Never allow children to operate the vehicle. Anyone who operates the vehicle should have a motor vehicle license. – Fill the fuel tank outdoors, and fill it to about 1 in. (25 mm) below the top of the tank (the bottom of the filler neck). Do not overfill it.
• Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) has a major impact on your ability to stop and/or turn. Heavy loads and attachments make a vehicle harder to stop or turn. The heavier the load, the longer it takes to stop. – Slow down before turning. Do not attempt sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers or other unsafe driving actions that may cause a loss of vehicle control. – When dumping, do not let anyone stand behind the vehicle and do not dump the load on anyone’s feet.
• Position the weight of a load evenly from front to back. If you position the load behind the rear axle, it will reduce the weight on the front wheels. This may result in a loss of steering control or cause the vehicle to tip over on hills or bumpy terrain. • Avoid stopping on hills, especially with a load. Stopping while going down a hill will take longer than stopping on level ground. If the vehicle must be stopped, avoid sudden speed changes, which may initiate tipping or rolling of the vehicle.
Maintenance • Only qualified and authorized personnel shall be permitted to maintain, repair, adjust, or inspect the vehicle. • Before servicing or making adjustments to the machine, stop the engine, set the parking brake, and remove the key from the ignition to prevent someone from accidentally starting the engine. • To make sure that the entire machine is in good condition, keep all nuts, bolts, and screws properly tightened.

The capacity of the cargo box is 13 ft.3 (.37 m3). The amount (volume) of material that can be placed in the box without exceeding the vehicle load ratings can vary greatly depending on the density of the material. For example, a level box of wet sand weighs 1500 lb.
Transporting the Vehicle Towing the Vehicle For moving the vehicle long distances, a trailer should be used. Make sure that the vehicle is secured to the trailer. Refer to Figures 22 and 23 for the location of the tie down points. In case of an emergency, the vehicle can be towed for a short distance. However, we do not recommend this as a standard procedure. Warning Caution Towing at excessive speeds could cause a loss of steering control, resulting in personal injury.
Towing a Trailer The vehicle is capable of pulling trailers. Two types of tow hitches are available for the vehicle, depending on your application. Contact your Authorized Toro Distributor for details. When hauling cargo or towing a trailer, do not overload your vehicle or trailer. Overloading can cause poor performance or damage to the brakes, axle, engine, transaxle, steering, suspension, body structure, or tires. Always load a trailer with 60% of the cargo weight in the front of the trailer.
