After Operation
Pushing or Towing the Machine
WARNING
While the tow bypass valve is open, the machine could unintentionally move,
resulting in death or serious injury.
When you are not pushing or towing the machine, engage the parking brake.
In an emergency, you can move the machine by opening tow bypass valve of the traction
hydraulic pump, installing a hydraulic hose to bypass the check valve, and then pushing or
towing the machine.
If you need to push or tow your machine, you may need to move it both forward and in
reverse. To ensure that the drive system does not become damaged from pushing or towing,
it is best to prepare the machine for both forward and reverse pushing or towing.
Preparing the Machine to Push or Tow in Reverse
Install the Reverse Tow Kit
Required Parts (purchased separately): Reverse Tow Kit, Toro Part No. 136-3620
IMPORTANT
If you need to push or tow the machine in reverse, you must first bypass the check
valve in the 4-wheel-drive manifold.
1. Park the machine on a level surface, engage the parking brake, lower the cutting units,
shut off the engine and remove the key.
2. Loosely assemble the bypass hose and straight fittings of the reverse tow kit; refer to the
Reverse Tow Kit Installation Instructions.
3. Remove the dust cap and the test fitting from the test port of the reverse traction tube.
4. Assemble the straight fitting of the bypass hose to the test port, and tighten the fitting
and hose.
5. Remove the #6 hex-socket plug from the unmarked port (located between the fittings in
port M8 and port P2) of the rear-traction manifold.
6. Assemble the other straight fitting of the bypass hose into the unmarked rear-traction
manifold port, and tighten the fitting and hose.
