This manual emphasizes safety, mechanical and general product information. DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION

identify safety messages. Whenever the triangular safety alert symbol appears, understand the safety message that

follows. “IMPORTANT” highlights special mechanical information and “NOTE” emphasizes general product infor-

mation worthy of special attention.

IDENTIFICATION AND ORDERING

MODEL AND SERIAL NUMBER

The model and serial number for the traction unit is on a plate that is mounted on the left front frame member. The

model and serial number for the cutting unit is on a plate that is mounted on the top front of the center cutting unit.

Use model and serial number in all correspondence and when ordering parts.

To order replacement parts from an authorized TORO Distributor, supply the following information:

1. Model and serial numbers of the machine.

2. Part number, description and quantity of parts desired.

Safety

Training

1. Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with

the controls and the proper use of the equipment.

2. Never allow children or people unfamiliar with

these instructions to use the lawn mower. Local

regulations may restrict the age of the operator.

3. Never mow while people, especially children, or

pets are nearby.

4. Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsi-

ble for accidents or hazards occurring to other

people or their property.

5. Do not carry passengers.

6. All drivers should seek and obtain professional

and practical instruction. Such instruction should

emphasize:

• the need for care and concentration when

working with ride-on machines;

• control of a ride-on machine sliding on a

slope will not be regained by the application

of the brake. The main reasons for loss of

control are:

– insufficient wheel grip;

– being driven too fast;

– inadequate braking;

– the type of machine is unsuitable for its

task;

– lack of awareness of the effects of

ground conditions, especially slopes;

– incorrect hitching and load distribution.

Preparation

1. While mowing, always wear substantial footwear

and long trousers. Do not operate the equipment

when barefoot or wearing open sandals.

2. Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment

is to be used and remove all objects which may

be thrown by the machine.

3. WARNING—Petrol is highly flammable.

• Store fuel in containers specifically designed

for this purpose.

• Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke

while refueling.

• Add fuel before starting the engine. Never

remove the cap of the fuel tank or add petrol

while the engine is running or when the

engine is hot.

• If petrol is spilled, do not attempt to start the

engine but move the machine away from the

are of spillage and avoid creating any source

of ignition until petrol vapors have dissipat-

ed.

• Replace all fuel tanks and container caps

securely.

4. Replace faulty silencers.

Operation

1. Do not operate the engine in a confined space

where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can col-

lect.

2. Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light.

3. Before attempting to start the engine, disengage

all blade attachment clutches and shift into neu-

tral.

4. Do not use on slopes of more than:

• Never mow side hills over 5°

• Never mow uphill over 10°

• Never mow downhill over 15°

5. Remember there is no such thing as a “safe”

slope. Travel on grass slopes requires particular

care. To guard against overturning:

Safety

• do not stop or start suddenly when going up

or downhill;

• engage the clutch slowly, and always keep

the machine in gear, especially when travail-

ing downhill;

• machine speeds should be kept low on

slopes and during tight turns;

• stay alert for bumps and hollows and other

hidden hazards;

• never mow across the face of the slope,

unless the lawn mower is designed for this

purpose.

6. Use care when pulling loads or using heavy

equipment.

• Use only approved drawbar hitch points.

• Limit loads to those you can safely control.

• Do not turn sharply. Use care when revers-

ing.

• Use counterweight(s) or wheel weights

when suggested in the instruction handbook.

7. Watch out for traffic when crossing or near road-

ways.

8. Stop the blades rotating before crossing surfaces

other than grass.

9. When using any attachments, never direct dis-

charge of material toward bystanders nor allow

anyone near the machine while in operation .

10. Never operate the lawn mower with defective

guards, shields or without safety protective

devices in place.

11. Do not change the engine governor settings or

overspeed the engine. Operating the engine at

excessive speeds may increase the hazard of per-

sonal injury.

12. Before leaving the operator’s position:

• disengage the power take-off and lower the

attachments;

• change into neutral and set the parking

brake;

• stop the engine and remove the key.

13. Disengage the drive to attachments when trans-

porting or not in use.

14. Stop the engine and disengage the drive to the

attachment

• before refueling;

• before removing the grass catcher;

• before making height adjustments unless the

adjustment can be made from the operator’s

position.

• before clearing blockages;

• before checking, cleaning or working on the

lawnmower;

• after striking a foreign object. Inspect the

lawnmower for damage and make repairs

before restarting and operating the equip-

ment.

15. Reduce the throttle setting during engine runout

and, if the engine is provided with a shutoff

valve, turn the fuel off at the conclusion of mow-

ing.

Maintenance and Storage

1. Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure

the equipment is in safe working condition.

2. Never store the equipment with petrol in the tank

inside a building where fumes may reach an open

flame or spark.

3. Allow the engine to cool before storing in any

enclosure.

4. To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine,

silencer, battery compartment and petrol storage

area free of grass, leaves, or excessive grease.

5. Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or

deterioration.

Safety

6. Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.

7. If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be

done outdoors.

8. Be careful during adjustment of the machine to pre-

vent entrapment of the fingers between moving

blades and fixed parts of the machine.

9. On multi-bladed machines, take care as rotating

one blade can cause other blades to rotate.

10. When the machine is to be parked, stored or left

unattended, lower the cutting means unless a posi-

tive mechanical lock is used.

Specifications

CHECKTHE CRANKCASE OIL

The engine is shipped with oil in the crankcase; howev-

er, you must check the oil level before and after you first

start the engine.

1. Position the machine on a level surface.

2. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag.

Push the dipstick down into the dipstick tube and

make sure it is seated fully. Pull out the dipstick

and check the oil level. If the level is low, add

enough oil to raise the level to the FULL mark on

the dipstick.

A. Above 0° C—Use SAE 30.

B. Below 0° C—Use SAE 5@-20 or 5W30.

IMPORTANT Check the oil level every 5 operat-

ing hours or daily. Change the oil after every 50

hours of operation.

FILLTHE FUELTANK

Diesel Model:

The engine runs on No. 2 diesel fuel. Fuel tank capacity

is 24.6 liters (6.5 gallons).

1. Clean the area around the fuel tank cap.

2. Remove the fuel tank cap.

3. Fill the tank to about 2.5 cm (one inch) below the

top of the tank (bottom of the filler neck). DO

NOT OVERFILL. Then install the cap.

4. To prevent a fire hazard, wipe up any fuel that may

have spilled .
