Maintenance Safety
• Before you leave the operator’s position, do the following:
– Park the machine on a level surface.
– Move the throttle to the low-idle position.
– Disengage the cutting unit(s).
– Ensure that the traction is in neutral.
– Engage the parking brake.
– Shut off the machine and remove the key (if equipped).
– Wait for all movement to stop.
• Allow machine components to cool before performing maintenance.
• If possible, do not perform maintenance while the machine is running. Keep away from
moving parts.
• If the engine must be running to perform a maintenance adjustment, keep your hands,
feet, clothing, and any parts of the body away from the cutting unit, attachments, and any
moving parts. Keep bystanders away.
• Clean grass and debris from the cutting unit, drive, muffler, cooling screen, and the
engine to help prevent fires. Clean up oil or fuel spills.
• Keep all parts in good working condition. Replace all worn, damaged, or missing parts
and decals. Keep all hardware tight to ensure that the machine is in safe working
condition.
• Check the grass catcher components frequently and replace them when necessary.
• To ensure safe, optimal performance of the machine, use only genuine Toro replacement
parts. Replacement parts made by other manufacturers could be dangerous, and such
use could void the product warranty.
• If major repairs are ever needed or if assistance is desired, contact an authorized Toro
distributor.
