Safety which may cause a roll over. Use extra caution when operating a traction unit with a blower attached in place of mowing decks. Hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, and proper training of the personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of the machine. Improper use or maintenance of the machine can result in injury or death. To reduce the potential for injury or death, comply with the following safety instructions.
• Be sure that the machine is in safe operating condition by keeping nuts, bolts, and screws tight. Check all bolts and nuts frequently to be sure that they are tightened to specification. • To ensure optimum performance and safety, always purchase genuine Toro replacement parts and accessories to keep the machine all Toro. Never use “will-fit” replacement parts and accessories made by other manufacturers. Look for the Toro logo to ensure genuineness.

Mount Arm Assemblies 1. Align the rear set of mounting holes in each lift arm with holes in the blower housing mounting brackets. Position lift arms as shown in figure 5. 1 2. Loosely secure each lift arm to mounting bracket with (2) capscrews, flatwashers and locknuts. Do not tighten locknuts. Figure 6 1. Bumper assembly Install Handle Assembly 1. Position handle mounting tube between tabs on top of blower housing (Fig. 7).
Install Linkage Rod 1 1. Insert front end of linkage rod through hole in handle assembly while hooking rear end of linkage rod thru hole in rear tab on deflector assembly (Fig. 8). Note: When mounting a debris blower on a traction unit equipped with a cab, rotate handle 180_ and use front tab on deflector for rod installation. 2.

Maintenance Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Greasing the Blower 1 The debris blower must be lubricated regularly. If machine is operated under normal conditions, lubricate castor and fan bearings and bushings with No. 2 general purpose lithium base grease or molybdenum base grease, after every 8 hours of operation or daily, whichever comes first. Lubricate fittings immediately after every washing, regardless of the interval listed.
