Towing The Machine; Hauling The Machine - Toro Groundsmaster 3300 Series Operator's Manual

Towing the Machine

If it becomes necessary to tow or push the machine,
the traction pump must be set to bypass hydraulic
fluid. Move the machine at a speed below 4.8 kph
(3 mph), and for a very short distance.
Important:
If towing limits are exceeded, severe
damage to the hydraulic pump may occur.
If the machine needs to be moved more than a
short distance, the machine should be transported
on a trailer.
1. Access the bypass valve from under the
machine.

loosen the bypass valve, then open the valve 3
revolutions maximum.
Important:
Do not start or run the engine
when the valve is set to the bypass position.
3. After towing and before starting the engine,
tighten the bypass valve to 20 N·m (15 ft-lb).
