Note: Do not unplug the charger cord by pulling on it. To unplug the cord, grasp the plug, not the cord. NOTICE! This mower has a battery charger that checks the charge state of the battery and charges the battery only when necessary. Toro recommends that you unplug the charger after 24 hours of charging, though you may leave the charger plugged into the mower longer without harming the system.
PAGE 6
Operation Each time before you use the mower, ensure that the control bar operates properly. When you release the control bar, the motor and the blade should stop. If they do not, contact an Authorized Service Dealer. Using the Key The mower only operates when the key is fully seated in the plug receptacle (Figure 5). To prevent accidental starting or unauthorized use of the mower, always remove the key from the plug receptacle whenever you leave the mower unattended.

Bagging the Clippings Note: Move the cutting height levers forward to raise the mower; move the cutting height levers rearward to lower the mower. Use the grass bag when you want to collect grass and leaf clippings from the lawn. WARNING A worn grass bag could allow small stones and other similar debris to be thrown in the operator’s or bystander’s direction and result in serious personal injury or death to the operator or bystanders. Check the grass bag frequently.
PAGE 8
Resetting the Circuit Breaker WARNING If the mower is run under too much load, the circuit breaker will trip. Follow these instructions to reset the circuit breaker. Wet grass or leaves can cause you to slip and contract the blade, causing a serious personal injury. NOTICE! Never reset the circuit breaker when the key is in the receptacle and the control lever is squeezed to the handle. Mow only in dry conditions. 1. Remove the key from the plug receptacle (Figure 3). 2.
PAGE 9

Remove the key from the plug receptacle when you leave the mower unattended, even for a short period of time.
