WARNING DANGER If you leave the key in the ignition switch, someone could accidentally start the engine and seriously injure you or other bystanders. If the engine is started and the PTO shaft is allowed to rotate, serious injury could result.
Product Overview Specifications Note: Specifications and design are subject to change without notice. Width of cut 2.54 m (100 inches) Height of cut Adjustable from 25 to 127 mm (1 to 5 inches) in 6 mm (1/4 inch) increments Net weight 358 kg (790 lb) g027696 Figure 3 Trailer Dimensions Ensure that your trailer or transport vehicle (Figure 2) has enough room to carry the deck in addition to the traction unit.
Operation Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. 4. CAUTION Wing Decks If you leave the key in the ignition switch, someone could accidently start the engine and seriously injure you or other bystanders.
Replacing the Skid Plates units. Slide the appropriate number of 13 mm (1/2 inch) spacers onto the spindle shaft to get the desired height of cut; then slide the washer onto the shaft. 1. Raise the deck wing and secure the latch pin to the latch handle (Figure 7). Note: When using 25 mm (1 inch), 38 mm (1-1/2 inch), or occasionally 51 mm (2 inch) height of cut, move the skids and roller to the highest holes. 4. Secure the adjustment with the tensioning cap.
Adjusting the Rollers off the engine, engage the parking brake, and remove the key. Mount the rollers in the lower position when operating in height of cuts higher than 64 mm (2-1/2 inches) and in the higher position when operating in height of cuts lower than 64 mm (2-1/2 inches). 1. 2. Disengage the PTO and engage the parking brake. Move the throttle lever to the SLOW position, shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving the operating position. 3.
Operating Tips Folding the Caster Arm To gain access to or from the operator area when the wing decks are folded up, release the caster arm latch (Figure 12) and rotate the caster arm away from the traction unit. g025274 Figure 12 g025273 1. Caster-arm latch Figure 11 1. Left rear-lift chain 2. Right rear-lift chain Important: Rotate the caster arm back to the machine before mowing.
Maintaining the Blade Using the Fast Throttle Setting and Adjusting the Ground Speed Maintain a sharp blade throughout the cutting season because a sharp blade cuts cleanly without tearing or shredding the grass blades. Tearing and shredding, which turns grass brown at the edges, slows growth and increases the chance of disease. Check the blades daily for sharpness, and for any wear or damage. Sharpen the blades as necessary.
Maintenance Recommended Maintenance Schedule(s) Maintenance Service Interval Maintenance Procedure After the first 2 hours • Tighten the caster wheel nuts. After the first 10 hours • Tighten the caster wheel nuts. Before each use or daily Every 50 hours • Lubricate the caster arm bushings. • Lubricate the caster wheel bearings. • Check the mower blades. • Lubricate the grease fittings. • Tighten the caster wheel nuts.

Shoulder screw Lubrication Service Interval: Every 50 hours The machine has grease fittings that must be lubricated regularly with No. 2 lithium grease. If the machine is operated under normal conditions, lubricate all bearings and bushings after every 50 hours of operation or immediately after every washing.

Servicing the Drive Belts Refer to Figure 22 for routing the drive belts appropriately. decal121-5498 Figure 22 Belt routing Servicing the Bushings in the Caster Arms The caster arms have bushings pressed into the top and bottom of the tube and after many hours of operation, the bushings wear. To check the bushings, move the caster fork back and forth and from side to side. If the caster spindle is loose inside the bushings, the bushings are worn; replace them. 1.
Servicing the Caster Wheels and Bearings 1. Check the blades daily for sharpness, and for any wear or damage. Sharpen the blades as necessary. If a blade is damaged or worn, replace it immediately with a genuine Toro replacement blade. Remove the locknut from the bolt holding the caster wheel assembly between the caster fork (Figure 24). DANGER A worn or damaged blade can break, and a piece of the blade could be thrown toward you or a bystander, resulting in serious personal injury or death.

Measure from a level surface to the cutting edge, position A, of the blades (Figure 26). Note this dimension. 5. Rotate the opposite ends of the blades forward. 6. Measure from a level surface to the cutting edge of the blades at the same position as in step 3 above.
WARNING Contact with a sharp blade can cause serious injury. Wear gloves or wrap sharp edges of the blade with a rag. 1. Hold the blade end using a rag or a thickly-padded glove. 2. Remove the blade bolt, the anti-scalp plate, and the blade from the spindle shaft (Figure 29). Sharpening the Blades WARNING When sharpening blade, pieces of blade could be thrown and cause serious injury. Wear proper eye protection when sharpening blades. 1. Sharpen the cutting edge at both ends of the blade (Figure 27).
Adjusting the Deck-Limit Chains 3. At the front of the deck, fully loosen the outboard serrated-flange nuts securing the 4 U-bolts (Figure 31). Use 2 deck shims Toro Part No. 138-8243 or 2 feeler gauges—0.15 mm (0.060 inch) Preparing the Deck 1. Start the engine, lower the left and right decks, shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop. 2. At the outer decks, wipe clean the tab of the inner channel (Figure 30). g321237 Figure 31 2. U-bolt 1.
