While Operating
1. Sit on the seat when starting and operating the ma-
chine.
2. Before starting the engine:
A. Apply the parking brake.
B. Make sure traction pedal is in neutral and the
PTO switch is OFF (disengaged).
3. After engine is started, release parking brake and
keep foot off traction pedal. Machine must not move. If
movement is evident, there may be a problem with trac-
tion pedal calibration or the piston (traction) pump t hat
needs to be corrected before using the machine.
4. Do not run engine in a confined area without ade-
quate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and
could possibly be deadly.
5. Do not touch engine, radiator or exhaust system
while engine is running or soon after it is stopped. These
areas could be hot enough to cause burns.
6. Before getting off the seat:
A. Ensure that traction pedal is in neutral.
B. Fully lower and disengage cutting decks. Wait for
blades to stop.
C. Apply the parking brake.
D. Stop engine and remove key from switch.
7. Toro recommends that a nytime the machine is
parked (short or long term), the cutting decks should be
lowered to the ground. This relieves hydraulic pressure
from the deck lift circuit and eliminates the risk of the cut-
ting decks unexpectedly lowering to the ground.
8. Do not park on slopes unless wheels are chocked or
blocked.
