Product Overview Controls Become familiar with all the controls before you start the engine and operate the machine. Traction Pedal The traction pedal (Figure 6) controls the forward and reverse operation. Press the top of the pedal to move forward and the bottom to move rearward. Ground speed depends on how far you press the pedal. For no load, maximum ground speed, fully press the pedal while the throttle is in the Fast position. Figure 5 1.
Parking Brake Throttle Lever To engage the parking brake, push down on the brake pedal and press the top forward to latch (Figure 6). To release the parking brake, press the brake pedal until the parking brake latch retracts without contacting the locking mechanism. The throttle lever (Figure 7) controls the speed of the engine. Moving the throttle lever forward toward the Fast position increases the engine speed. Moving it rearward toward the Slow position decreases the engine speed.
Charge Indicator Illuminates when the charging system circuit malfunctions (Figure 7). Oil Pressure Warning Light The oil pressure warning light (Figure 7) glows when the oil pressure in engine drops below a safe level. If low oil pressure ever occurs, stop the engine immediately and determine the cause. Repair the damage before starting the engine again. Fuel Gauge The fuel gauge (Figure 8) indicates the fuel level remaining in the fuel tank. Figure 9 1. Wind shield wiper/washer switch 2.
Operation Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. CAUTION This machine produces sound levels in excess of 80 dBA at the operators ear and can cause hearing loss through extended periods of exposure. Wear hearing protection when operating this machine. Adding Fuel Use only clean, fresh diesel fuel or biodiesel fuels with low (<500 ppm) or ultra low (<15 ppm) sulfur content. The minimum cetane rating should be 40.
Filling the Fuel Tank • Use B5 (biodiesel content of 5%) or lesser blends in cold weather. 1. Park the machine on a level surface. • Monitor seals, hoses, gaskets in contact with fuel as they 2. Shut the engine off and set the parking brake. may be degraded over time. 3. Clean around the fuel tank cap and remove the cap (Figure 11). • Fuel filter plugging may be expected for a time after converting to biodiesel blended. • Contact your distributor if you wish for more information on biodiesel.
Important: Ensure that the seat is secured with the seat latch. 4. To raise the roll bar, remove the hairpin cotter pins and remove the two pins (Figure 12). 5. Raise the roll bar to the upright position and install the two pins and secure them with the hairpin cotter pins (Figure 12). WARNING To avoid injury or death from rollover: keep the roll bar in the raised locked position and use the seat belt. Ensure that the seat plate is secured with the seat latch.
Note: Additional starting cycles may be required when starting the engine for the first time after the fuel system has been completely drained. 2. Make sure the traction pedal is in the neutral position. 3. Set the parking brake. 4. Move the PTO (power take off) switch to the off position (Figure 13). 8. Leave the throttle midway between the Slow and Fast positions until the engine and hydraulic system warm up.
Steering Selection (4 wheel drive models only) Stopping the Machine To stop the machine, release the traction pedal to the neutral position. For maximum trimming and minimum turf damage the machine should always be operated in 4 wheel steering. However, when it is desired to transport the machine on roads or trails, the machine can be switched into 2 wheel steering. Set the parking brake whenever you leave the machine. Remember to remove the key from the ignition switch.
Adjusting the Height-of-Cut Height-of-Cut), and place the pin in the 15 cm (6 inch) height-of-cut position (Figure 18). The height-of-cut is adjusted from 2.5 to 15.8 cm (1 to 6 inches) in 6 mm (1/4 inch) increments by relocating the stop pin into different hole locations. Engaging the Power Take Off (PTO) The power take off (PTO) switch starts and stops the mower blades and some powered attachments. 1.
The Safety Interlock System 5. Without an operator on the seat, disengage the parking brake, move the PTO switch to off, and allow the traction pedal to return to the neutral position. Try starting the engine; the engine should not crank. CAUTION If the safety interlock switches are disconnected or damaged the machine could operate unexpectedly causing personal injury. • Do not tamper with the interlock switches.
Use the Diagnostic ACE display tool and over lay to help verify and correct electrical functions of the machine. Contact your Toro distributor for assistance. properly. If the machine kills the light will turn on steady until the key position is changed. The light will blink if the controller detects a malfunction in the electrical system. The light will stop blinking and automatically reset when the key switch is turned to the Off position once the fault has been resolved.
The Diagnostic ACE will illuminate the LED associated with each of the inputs when that input switch is closed. 7. Individually, change each of the switches from open to closed (i.e., sit on seat, engage traction pedal, etc.), and note that the appropriate LED on Diagnostic ACE will blink on and off when corresponding switch is closed. Repeat this for all switches that you can change by hand. 8.
Changing the Seat Suspension If the output LEDs are on as specified, but the machine does not function properly, this indicates a non-electrical problem. Repair as necessary. The seat can be adjusted to provide a smooth and comfortable ride. Position the seat where you are most comfortable. Note: If each output switch is in the correct position and functioning correctly, but the output LEDs are not correctly illuminated, this indicates an ECM problem.
Changing the Weight Adjustment Adjusting the Armrests The seat can be adjusted to provide a smooth and comfortable ride. The armrests can be folded back if required and the height individually adjusted. Important: To adjust the seat for the drivers weight the driver must be seated and the ignition key moved to the On position.
4. Rotate each by-pass valve counterclockwise 1 turn (Figure 28). This allows hydraulic fluid to by-pass the pump enabling the wheels to turn. Important: Do not rotate the by-pass valves more than 1 turn. This prevents valves from coming out of the body and causing fluid to run out. 5. Disengage the parking brake before pushing. Changing to Machine Operation Rotate each by-pass valve clockwise 1 turn and hand tighten them (torque of approximately 8 N-m (71 in-lb) (Figure 28).
Transporting Machines the ramp extends up the slope. This will minimize the ramp angle. The trailer or truck should be as level as possible. WARNING Important: Do not attempt to turn the unit while on the ramp; you may lose control and drive off the side. Driving on the street or roadway without turn signals, lights, reflective markings, or a slow moving vehicle emblem is dangerous and can lead to accidents causing personal injury.
