CHECKING/ADJUSTING
HEADLIGHT AIM
The headlights can be adjusted vertically. The center of
the HIGH beam light zone is to be used for aiming.
1. Position the vehicle on a level floor so the head-
lights are approximately 6.1 m (20 ft) from an aim-
ing surface (wall or similar aiming surface).
NOTE: There should be an average operating load
on the vehicle when adjusting the headlight aim.
2. Measure the distance from the floor to the mid-
point of each headlight.
3. Using the measurements obtained in step 2, make
horizontal marks on the aiming surface.
4. Make vertical marks which intersect the horizontal
marks on the aiming surface directly in front of the
headlights.
5. Switch on the lights. Make sure the HIGH beam is
on. DO NOT USE LOW BEAM.
6. Observe each headlight beam aim. Proper aim is
when the HIGH beam is centered on the vertical
mark 5 cm (2 in.) below the horizontal mark on the
aiming surface.
7. Turn the adjuster nut clockwise to raise the beam
and counterclockwise to lower the beam.

RECOMMENDED GASOLINE

The recommended gasoline to use is 87 minimum octane
regular unleaded. In many areas, oxygenates are added to
the gasoline. Oxygenated gasolines containing up to 10%
ethanol or 5% methane are acceptable gasolines.
When using ethanol blended gasoline, it is not necessary
to add a gasoline antifreeze since ethanol will prevent
the accumulation of moisture in the system.
Do not use white gas. Only Toro approved gasoline
and/or additives should be used.

TEST DRIVING

1. Check all mechanical functions.
2. Burnish the brake pads (see Burnishing Brake Pads).
3. Confirm all cables and wiring harnesses are con-
nected and routed correctly.
4. Confirm all lights work correctly: headlights (HI-
LO), taillight/brakelight, gauge, dash.

5. Confirm cooling fan operates normally.
6. After the test drive, check the brake systems.
7. Inspect the owner's packet to ensure it is complete
(Operator's Manual, spanner wrench).
8. Visually inspect the entire vehicle for any loose fasten-
ers. Tighten as required to the appropriate specifications.
9. Confirm final "check-off" of items on the Checklist.

BURNISHING BRAKE PADS

Brake pads must be burnished to achieve full braking
effectiveness. Braking distance will be extended until
brake pads are properly burnished.
Do not attempt sudden stops or put yourself into a
situation where a sudden stop will be required until
the brake pads are properly burnished.
1. Choose an area sufficiently large to safely acceler-
ate to 50 km/h (30 mph) and to brake to a stop.
2. Accelerate to 50 km/h (30 mph); then press brake
pedal to decelerate to 0-8 km/h (0-5 mph).
