HYDROSTATIC DRIVE SYSTEM Bleeding the Hydraulic System 1. Disengage the PTO. Due to the effects air has on efficiency in hydrostatic drive applications, it is critical that air is purged from the system. 2. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving the operating position. These purge procedures should be implemented anytime a hydrostatic system has been opened to facilitate maintenance or any additional oil has been added to the system.
HYDROSTATIC DRIVE SYSTEM Checking the Hydraulic Lines After every 100 operating hours, check hydraulic lines and hoses for leaks, loose fittings, kinked lines, loose mounting supports, wear, weather and chemical deterioration. Make necessary repairs before operating. Note: Keep areas around hydraulic system clean from grass and debris build up. !! Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate skin and cause injury.

ELECTRICAL Tools On/Off Switch • Volt Ohm meter • Flat and Phillips screwdrivers • Box and open end wrenches - various sizes The on/off switch is mainly used to control the spark on recoil start models. In the off position there is contact between the terminals. When turned 1/4 turn clockwise to the on position the contacts open (Fig. 1393). Additional information can be found in the LCE Electrical Troubleshooting DVD #492-9171, available through your Toro parts supplier.
ELECTRICAL Single Pole Switch PTO Switch This is a normally closed switch and has the letters “NC” stamped on both terminals. This switch should have continuity when at rest. Continuity should be lost when the plunger is depressed (Fig. 1395). 3 terminals are in use on this switch. When the switch is off (knob depressed) there should be continuity between terminals 1 and 7. When the switch is on (knob pulled out) there should be continuity between terminals 1 and 4 (Fig. 1396 and Fig. 1397).
ELECTRICAL Relay, Single Pole Dual Throw Ignition Switch A relay is an electronically activated switch. It can be used as a normally open or normally closed switch depending on which terminals are used. The diagram is molded into the side of the relay. The ignition switch has 3 positions; off, run and start. The start position is spring loaded to return to run when released. The switch terminals are unmarked. Use the figure above to identify the terminals.
ELECTRICAL Wire Harness T-Bar, Gear Drive (104-8137) This wire harness has one 7.5 amp fuse in the pink wire between the alternator and delay module. If the clutch fails to engage, check the fuse first (Fig. 1401).
ELECTRICAL PTO Switch Delay Module Only 2 terminals are used in this application: numbers 1 and 4 as shown in the figure below. These terminals are normally open. They close only when the PTO knob is pulled outward. This is a momentary switch so when the PTO knob is released it will return to the open position (Fig. 1402 and Fig. 1403). The Delay Module delays clutch disengagement for a second or two.
ELECTRICAL Clutch Power Supply Test Procedure: 1. Measure the DC voltage at the pink wire where it comes out of the rectifier. Make sure the engine is running at full throttle and note the reading. If below 12 VDC, troubleshoot the engine’s electrical system (Fig. 1405). 3. Connect the test lead to the end of the pink wire in the terminal plug removed from the module (Fig. 1407). Note: The voltage should be the same as at the engine. Fig 1407 Fig 1405 IMG_8046a IMG_8042 2.
ELECTRICAL 5. Move the bail to the operation position and temporarily tie it in place (Fig. 1409). 7. Set the Volt/Ohm meter to the OHMs setting. Connect a test lead to the green wire at the module connector. Connect the other test lead to the engine block (Fig. 1411). The reading should be 2.8 OHMs. A higher reading indicates a poor connection on the green wire, the clutch or ground. Clean and secure all connection points. A lower reading indicates a problem with the clutch coil. Fig 1409 IMG_8066a 6.
ELECTRICAL 8. Check the ground for the module: Check for continuity between the black wire at the module connector and the engine (Fig. 1412). High resistance indicates corroded terminals or a poor ground connection to the chassis. If the clutch and power supply function properly (as indicated by the above test procedure), the Delay Module must be replaced. DC Mini Hour Meter This hour meter runs when 12 VDC is applied. It will record up to 9,999.9 hrs.
ELECTRICAL Proximity Switch PTO Brake Clutch Assembly This proximity switch is normally open. The contacts close when a piece of ferrous metal (iron or steel) is placed close to the switch, approximately within 1/4” (.635cm). The switch will open when the metal is moved away (Fig. 1415). The PTO clutch contains one fixed plate, a moveable plate and an electro magnet. When a minimum of 8 VDC is applied to the clutch the plates will engage.
ELECTRICAL Wire Harness Pistol Grip (106-8780) There is a 30 amp fuse (p/n 109103) between the battery and ignition switch and a 25 amp fuse (p/n 109102) between the voltage regulator/rectifier on the engine and the ignition switch. Failure of the 30 amp fuse disables the entire electrical system (Fig. 1417). If the 25 amp fuse fails, focus on the engine portion of the charging system for the cause. The alternator does not produce enough amperage to blow the fuse.
ELECTRICAL PTO Switch The PTO switch has 3 positions. Fully depressed, a middle detent and momentary (full out). The momentary (full out) position is spring loaded. It must be held to keep it in that position. When the knob is fully depressed there is continuity between terminals 1 and 7. The momentary position (full out) causes continuity between terminals 1 and 4 (Fig. 1418 and Fig. 1419). The switch can be tested using an ohm meter or continuity light.
ELECTRICAL Wire Harness T-2, Hydro (114-3418) There is a 30 amp fuse (p/n 109103) between the battery and ignition switch and a 25 amp fuse (p/n 109102) between the voltage regulator/rectifier on the engine and the ignition switch. Failure of the 30 amp fuse disables the entire electrical system (Fig. 1420). If the 25 amp fuse fails, focus on the engine portion of the charging system for the cause. The alternator does not produce enough amperage to blow the fuse.

Failure of the 30 amp fuse disables the entire electrical system (Fig. 1421). If the 25 amp fuse fails, focus on the engine portion of the charging system for the cause. The alternator does not produce enough amperage to blow the fuse.
ELECTRICAL Normally Open Switch Starter Solenoid This switch is normally open. There is contact only when the plunger is depressed (Fig. 1422). A starter is a form of an electrically operated switch. Positioning the solenoid closer to the battery and starter, short battery cables can be utilized to increase efficiency (Fig. 1424). At rest there should be no continuity between the two larger posts. Connect a 12 volt battery to the two smaller posts and the solenoid should engage.
