Toro

Mower Safety

The following list contains safety information

specific to Toro products or other safety information

that you must know that is not included in the ANSI

standards.

This product is capable of amputating hands and feet

and throwing objects. Always follow all safety

instructions to avoid serious injury or death.

POTENTIAL HAZARD

•Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide,

which is an odorless, deadly poison.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

•Carbon monoxide can kill you and is also

known to the State of California to cause

birth defects.

HOW TO AV

OID THE HAZARD

•Do not run engine indoors or in an enclosed

area.

This product is designed for cutting and recycling

grass or, when equipped with a grass bagger, for

catching cut grass. Any use for purposes other than

these could prove dangerous to user and bystanders.

Note: This engine is not equipped with a

spark arrester muffler. It is a violation

of California Public Resource Code

Section 4442 to use or operate this

engine on any forest–covered,

brush–covered or grass–covered land.

Other states or federal areas may have

similar laws.

General Operation

•Allow only responsible adults who are familiar

with the instructions to operate the machine.

•Be sure the area is clear of other people before

mowing. Stop the machine if anyone enters the

area.

•Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely

necessary. Always look down and behind before

and while backing.

•Be aware of the mower discharge direction and

do not point it at anyone. Do not operate the

mower without either the entire grass catcher or

the guard in place.

•Slow down before turning. Sharp turns on any

terrain may cause loss of control.

•Turn off blades when not mowing.

•Keep hands, feet, hair and loose clothing away

from attachment discharge area, underside of

mower and any moving parts while engine is

running.

•Stop the engine before removing the grass

catcher or unclogging the chute.

•Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.

•Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing

roadways.

Safety

•Do not touch equipment or attachment parts

which may be hot from operation. Allow to cool

before attempting to maintain, adjust or service.

•Before operating a machine with ROPS (roll

over protection) be certain the seat belts are

attached to prevent the seat from pivoting

forward.

Slope Operation

Slopes and ramps are a major factor related to

loss-of-control and tip-over accidents, which can

result in severe injury or death. All slopes and ramps

require extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope

or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.

•Mow up and down slopes greater than 5°, not

across.

•Mow downhill only on slopes above 10°, never

mow uphill. If a steep slope must be ascended,

back up the hill, and drive forward down the hill,

keeping the machine in gear.

•Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.

from the mowing area. Watch for holes, ruts or

bumps, as uneven terrain could overturn the

machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

•Use slow speed so that you will not have to stop

while on the slope.

•Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for

wheel weights or counterweights to improve

stability.

•Use extra care with grass catchers or other

attachments. These can change the stability of

the machine.

•Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual.

Do not make sudden changes in speed or

direction.

•Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires

lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed

slowly straight down the slope.

•When operating machine on slopes, banks or

near drop offs, always have ROPS (roll over

protection) installed.

•When operating a machine with ROPS (roll over

protection) always use seat belt.

•Be certain that the seat belt can be released

quickly if the machine is driven or rolls into

ponds or water.

•Check carefully for overhead clearances (i.e.

branches, doorways, electrical wires) before

driving under any objects and do not contact

them.

DO NOT

•Do not operate machine on hillsides or slopes

exceeding 15°.

•Avoid turning on slopes. If you must turn, turn

slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

•Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or

embankments. The machine could suddenly turn

over if a wheel goes over the edge of a cliff or

ditch, or if an edge caves in.

•Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction

could cause sliding.

•Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting

your foot on the ground.

•Do not use a grass catcher on steep slopes.

Heavy grass bags could cause loss of control or

overturn the machine.

Service

•Never store the machine or fuel container inside

where there is an open flame, such as near a

water heater or furnace.

•Keep nuts and bolts tight, especially the blade

attachment bolts. Keep equipment in good

condition.

•Never tamper with safety devices. Check safety

systems for proper operation before each use.

Safety

•Use only genuine replacement parts to ensure

that original standards are maintained.

•Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and

service as required.

•Battery acid is poisonous and can cause burns.

Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.

Protect your face, eyes and clothing when

working with a battery.

•Battery gases can explode. Keep cigarettes,

sparks and flames away from battery.

•Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can

penetrate the skin and cause injury. Use

cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks.

•Never modify ROPS (roll over protection)

frames or structures because they are specifically

designed, sized, located and tested for injury

reduction. If a rollover occurs, a modified ROPS

will not provide adequate protection.
