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. Safe Operating Practices General Operation 1.
Safety 13. Keep hands, feet, hair and loose clothing away from any moving parts while engine is running. • Use only Toro approved attachments. Attachments can change the stability and the operating characteristics of the machine. Warranty may be voided if used with un–approved attachments. • Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction. • Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction proceed slowly straight down the slope.
Safety Children Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine and the work activity. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them. The following requirements must be followed to prevent injury to children. 1. Keep children out of the work area and under the watchful care of another responsible adult. 2. Be alert and turn the machine off if children enter the area. 3.

Group 1 Hydraulic Fluid (Recommended for ambient temperatures consistently below 100 F.
Operation Think Safety First Please carefully read all the safety instructions on pages 2–8 and view the training video. Following these instructions could help you or bystanders avoid injury. Choke To start engine, close carburetor choke by pulling choke control out to ON position. After engine starts, regulate choke to keep engine running smoothly. As soon as possible, open the choke by pushing it in to the OFF position. A warm engine requires little or no choking.
Operation Attachment tilt lever Flow divider control To tilt attachment forward, slowly push the attachment tilt lever forward. Move flow divider control to twelve–o’clock position (normal operating position) for no flow division. When moving control to nine–o’clock position, flow is diverted to the attachments and less is available to the wheels and loader arms. This allows for greater concentration of power where it’s needed most.
Operation Starting and Stopping Engine Starting 1. Stand on platform. 2. Open fuel cap vent. 3. Move the auxiliary hydraulics valve lever to neutral. POTENTIAL HAZARD • Attachment may move during starting WHAT CAN HAPPEN • Operator or bystander may be injured by attachment HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD • Make sure auxiliary hydraulic lever is in neutral position during engine starting. 4. Move the throttle control midway between “SLOW” and “FAST” positions before starting a cold engine. 5.
Operation Driving Forward or Backward Stopping the Machine The throttle control regulates the engine speed as measured in rpm (revolutions per minute). Place the throttle control in the “FAST” position for best performance. To stop the machine, move the traction control levers to neutral, lower loader arms to the ground, and turn the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine. Remember to remove the key from the key switch. Note: Throttle position can be utilized to operate at slower speeds. Forward 1.
Operation Moving A Non Functioning Machine IMPORTANT: Never tow the machine without disconnecting the traction drive chains because hydraulic damage may occur. To Move the Machine Installation 1. Start engine. 2. Raise loader arms to fully raised position. 3. Turn the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine. 4. Position a loader arm cylinder arm lock over each hydraulic cylinder rod. 1. Turn the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine. 5.
Operation Attachments 7. Move the auxiliary hydraulics lever to the forward, backward and back to neutral position to relieve hydraulic pressure at the hydraulic couplers. 8. Remove protective covers from hydraulic couplers on machine. Connect covers together to prevent contamination during operation. 9. Slide collar back on hydraulic coupler and connect attachment couplers to machine couplers. Connecting IMPORTANT: Use only Toro approved attachments.
Operation Transporting and Securing IMPORTANT: Do not operate or drive machine on roadways. IMPORTANT: When transporting machine on a trailer, always use the following procedure: 1. Lower the loader arms. 2. Turn the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine. 3.

Air Cleaner 1 2 Foam Element: Clean and re-oil after every 25 operating hours. 3 4 Paper Element: Replace after every 100 operating hours.
Maintenance Cleaning the Foam and Paper Elements 1. Foam Element A. Wash the foam element in liquid soap and warm water. When the element is clean, rinse it thoroughly. B. C. 1 Dry the element by squeezing it in a clean cloth (do not wring). 2 Put one or two ounces of oil on the element (Fig. 8). Squeeze the element to distribute the oil. IMPORTANT: Replace the foam element if it is torn or worn. 2 m–1213 Figure 9 1. Paper element Installing the Foam and Paper Elements 1.
Maintenance Engine Oil Changing/Draining Oil Change oil: • After the first 8 operating hours. • After every 100 operating hours. Note: 1. Start the engine and let it run five minutes. This warms the oil so it drains better. 2. Park the machine so that the drain side is slightly lower than the opposite side to assure the oil drains completely. Then lower the loader arms, chock the wheels and turn the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine. Remove the key. 3. Place a pan below the oil drain.
Maintenance Spark Plug Change Oil Filter Replace the oil filter every 200 hours or every other oil change. Note: 1. Change oil filter more frequently when operating conditions are extremely dusty or sandy. Drain the oil from the engine; refer to Changing/Draining Oil, page 22. 2. Remove the old filter and wipe the filter adapter (Fig. 11) gasket surface. 3. Pour new oil of the proper type in through the center hole. Stop pouring when the oil reaches the bottom of the threads.
Maintenance Greasing and Lubrication Checking the Spark Plug 1. Look at the center of the spark plug(s) (Fig. 13). If you see light brown or gray on the insulator, the engine is operating properly. A black coating on the insulator usually means the air cleaner is dirty. IMPORTANT: Never clean the spark plug(s). Always replace the spark plug(s) when it has: a black coating, worn electrodes, an oily film, or cracks. 2. Check the gap between the center and side electrodes (Fig. 13).
Maintenance Fuel Filter Fuel Tank Replace the fuel filter after every 200 operating hours or yearly, whichever occurs first. Draining The Fuel Tank Replacing the Fuel Filter POTENTIAL HAZARD • In certain conditions gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. Never re–install a dirty filter. 1. Lower the loader arms and turn the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine. Remove the key. 2. Clamp fuel line between fuel tank and fuel filter to block fuel flow. 3.
Maintenance Hydraulic System 1 3 Replacing the Hydraulic Filter Change the hydraulic filter: 2 • After the first 8 operating hours. • After every 400 operating hours. 1. Position machine on a level surface, lower the loader arms, stop the engine, and remove key from ignition switch. IMPORTANT: Do not substitute automotive oil filter or severe hydraulic system damage may result. 2. Place drain pan under filter, remove the old filter and wipe the filter adapter gasket surface clean. 3.
Maintenance Adjusting Traction Drive Chains Check Drive Chain Tension. Drive chains should have about 1–1/2 to 2–1/2 inches of slack at the bottom. Chain tensioner is at front of machine (Fig. 16). 1 Figure 16 1. Chain tensioner IMPORTANT: Always tension both chains equally to maintain front end alignment. Under some sandy conditions, the sand can build up on the sprockets as little shells. This enlarges the size of the sprocket and the chain tightens.
Maintenance Battery Check the electrolyte level in the battery every 25 hours. Always keep the battery clean and fully charged. Use a paper towel to clean the battery case. If the battery terminals are corroded, clean them with a solution of four parts water and one part baking soda. Apply a light coating of grease to the battery terminals to reduce corrosion. IMPORTANT: Do not overfill the battery because electrolyte (sulfuric acid) can cause severe corrosion and damage to the chassis. 4.
Maintenance Cleaning and Storage 1. 2. Lower the loader arms and turn the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine. Remove the key. Remove dirt and grime from the external parts of the entire machine, especially the engine. Clean dirt and chaff from the outside of the engine’s cylinder head fins and blower housing. IMPORTANT: You can wash the machine with mild detergent and water. Do not pressure wash the machine.
